00:05Danger!
00:17Football legend Arthur the King has passed away in a traffic accident last night.
00:21He was 45. Three-time Balladour winner, two-time World Cup champion.
00:24Widely regarded as the greatest of all time.
00:26Fans around the world are paying tribute.
00:30Your brother's physical recovery is going well.
00:32No new brain damage, but his cognitive condition you already know.
00:37I know, thank you doctor.
00:45Tomorrow's board meeting, you hand over those shares or I'll have my lawyers freeze your goddamn accounts.
00:51You and that brain-debt brother won't see a single penny.
00:53Dad left those for us.
00:55Your old man's dead.
00:56I'm dead.
00:57No, I'm not dead.
00:58This body.
00:58Tomorrow, you bring your people.
00:59Or else, this club is not up to a little bitch and some retard to destroy.
01:06Three-year contract.
01:07Eight million a year.
01:08Highest paid manager in the world.
01:10All you have to do is stand on the sideline?
01:12Stand on the sideline.
01:13Watch others play.
01:14Arthur, your knee is broken.
01:15You know better than anyone.
01:17Last match, you couldn't even last 90 minutes.
01:19Stop.
01:19I've only done one thing my whole life.
01:21Play football.
01:23Stand on the sideline telling others what to do?
01:25That's not me.
01:26That only happens after I'm dead.
01:37Max!
01:38Oh my god, Max!
01:40You're awake!
01:41So this is me now?
01:44I'm the idiot.
01:46You scared me to death.
01:47The doctor said you might never wake up.
01:49Since I've taken over your body, I'll take care of your problems for you.
01:52Take me to them.
02:01Bankruptcy filing.
02:02Sign it.
02:03Get out.
02:04You don't have the right.
02:05No right?
02:06Your dad's shares are split between us three brothers.
02:09You think your little slice is gonna hold?
02:11Are these her uncles?
02:12Abusing their own family without a shred of decency?
02:15A bunch of scumbags.
02:16Look at your precious baby brother.
02:18Can't even tie his own shoes.
02:19And you think he's gonna help you run a club?

10:33You're guys done.
10:34My turn.
10:36Sure.
10:37You want a kick?
10:38At what?
10:38Your goal?
10:39I score.
10:40You take your people and your contracts and disappear from Crown City.
10:43For good.
10:45Fine!
10:45Let me raise the stakes.
10:47You three block the goal.
10:50Fair, right?
10:51You said you want to shoot.
10:51I give you a goal.
10:52Just get past them.
10:53Not hard, right?
10:59Ten steps.
11:00That move.
11:01It's exactly the same as Arthur's free kick from the news.
11:04You sure there's enough?
11:16What a shame.
11:17A gifted idiot.
11:19Just a tiny bit shorty.
11:26Take a good look, half-wit.
11:29This is your limit.
11:30You can't even protect your own sister, and you think you can save some shitty little pitch?
11:36You can't even find an inch to shoot through.
11:39You can't even find an inch to shoot through.
11:39Give up.
11:40Go where you belong.
11:41The Nuff House.
11:50Get your foot off her.
11:52Get your foot off her.
12:06That's your point, I'll go through.
12:07You can't even try and save me as you've attempted.
12:25Come on...
12:29What the fuck, this kind of power?
12:36The contract.
12:38You think this is over? Behind me?
12:42The contract.
12:50Crown City ain't yours. Now scram.
12:53Next time, there won't be a ball going into that goal.
13:00You're fun, kid. We'll meet again.
13:06Max! Just now, that ball, how did you do that?
13:12This body's explosive power, even stronger than I thought.
13:1719, with proper training.
13:26That trajectory, 10-step run-up, outside foot spin.
13:31There he is, my student.
13:37The King's Memorial. Three days from now.
13:40National Stadium. Only 20 VIPs issued nationwide.
13:43These three, for Crown City.
13:45Why us? Crown City is just a fifth-year community club.
13:48Because I want to see what your team can do.
13:50Specifically, his ability.
13:54What's the catch?
13:55Tomorrow afternoon, Rondo Challenge.
13:58Your Crown City team against my guys.
14:01Win, these cards are yours.
14:03Lose, I take them back to pick someone else.
14:06Bring it.
14:15Boss, don't worry.
14:17It's arranged.
14:17Come on.
14:27Faster.
14:41Jake!
14:42Who told you to get in?
14:49One man down. I'll fill in.
14:52Perfect. Six of you. More fun.
14:57He's standing in the center alone.
14:59His presence.
15:00Only one man ever had it.
15:20Too slow.
15:23He's...
15:23He's toying with them.
15:25The anticipation.
15:27The vision.
15:28There's only one man in the world who could do this.
15:43You.
15:45Cards.
15:46I'm taking them.
15:51See you at the memorial, Thomas.
15:53He knows me?
15:54I don't think I ever told him my name.
15:56Coach?
15:57Is that you?
16:09Invitation.
16:14Fake.
16:15Beat it.
16:18Thomas gave these to us personally.
16:20Look, there's a serial number.
16:21388.
16:27I say it's fake, it's fake.
16:29This ain't the kind of place for just anyone.
16:31A broke chick and a freak?
16:33Try the homeless shelter down the block.
16:39Oh, isn't this the little girl from Crown City?
16:42Why aren't you going in?
16:43Let me through, brother.
16:44It's pouring out here.
16:47You don't belong here.
16:48Never will.
16:52Never will.
16:58Wait here.
17:00Wait for what?
17:02For them to come invite us in.
17:07Welcome to the memorial service for our great player, Arthur, who spent his life pouring
17:12his sweat onto the pitch and bringing endless joy and glory to countless people with his
17:16unmatched fighting spirit.
17:22Excuse me for a moment.
17:26Still here?
17:27You want me to...
17:38Who gave you the nerve?
17:39Mr. Thomas, sir, I didn't know they don't have...
17:43You're fired.
17:43All of you.
17:44Don't bother coming back after tonight.
17:51Looking good.
17:52More gray hair, though.
17:55This way.
17:56VIP entrance.
17:57Full service.
17:58The national team coach personally came out.
18:00Who the hell is this half-jit?
18:16What's happening?
18:21Arthur!
18:22You died too soon!
18:2715 years!
18:2815 goddamn years I waited to crush you on the pitch!
18:32Now you tell me you just fucking died?
18:34Didn't even give me a proper farewell game?
18:37Silva.
18:38Watch where you are.
18:40Thomas.
18:42Arthur's little lapdog.
18:43Your master's dead.
18:45Shouldn't you be crying yourself to death?
18:46Or are you enjoying this?
18:48Finally out of his shadow?
18:50One more word.
18:53You think you can lecture me?
18:54On this field, you talk with skills.
18:56You got any?
18:57You never did.
18:58The world's number one player has died.
19:00Only I am left.
19:01The second place without an opponent is the first place.
19:04Thanks, old man.
19:08Interesting.
19:0915 years of obsession.
19:11Too bad.
19:12The man you're looking for is dead.
19:23You disrespected coach.
19:25This ain't your playground.
19:27Then come teach me a lesson.
19:34Zero angle!
19:35He curled it in at zero angle with the outside of his foot.
19:40This is what world number two looks like.
20:01This is it.
20:02This is what Arthur's golden student can do.
20:04Who else?
20:05Every club out there.
20:06Even your national team.
20:08Who's got the guts to step up?
20:23Get your filthy hands off it.
20:26Who the hell is that kid?
20:27Is he insane?
20:28Does he know that's Silva?
20:30World number two!
20:31Who are you?
20:31Another one of Thomas' mutts?
20:33Or did you escape from some asylum?
20:35I am a nobody.
20:38Buddy!
20:39A nobody dares run his mouth at me?
20:41Did you all hear that?
20:42A nobody!
20:45This country really is out of talent.
20:47Sending a kid?
20:49A brain damaged one at that?
20:51Is the first of yours worth guarding with a good for nothing?
20:54This is Arthur's legacy?
20:56A half-wit?
20:58Want to bet?
20:59Bet what?
21:00You can't even beat me.
21:02A half-fit.
21:03You kneel in front of that photo and apologize.
21:05In front of the whole world.
21:11You know who I am, right?
21:14Yeah.
21:16World number two.
21:18Forever number two.
21:22Penalties.
21:24One shot each.
21:25I go first.
21:27You dare catch it?
21:28Kick.
21:37Don't cry.
21:49What kind of trajectory?
21:51The ball changed direction mid-air.
22:00He caught it!
22:02One hand!
22:03He caught it!
22:06Impossible!
22:07No one can read that ball!
22:09You're done.
22:10My turn.
22:14Come on!
22:15Show me what you got!
22:19Ten steps.
22:21Ten steps again.
22:31Elevator ball.
22:32Zero spin.
22:35This kick.
22:36It is Arthur's final gift to the world.
22:41No.
22:42It can't be.
22:44Coach.
22:45Is that you?
22:46Dead center.
22:46Straight shot.
22:47Idiot.
22:48Free me.
22:49Whoa!
22:54Impossible.
22:56This shot.
22:57Only he could do this.
23:01Goal!
23:02Goal!
23:03Goal!
23:05Elevator ball!
23:06It's in the elevator ball!
23:09Max.
23:10Who are you really?
23:20Again!
23:21One more time!
23:22That one doesn't count!
23:23You!
23:24You cheated!
23:25The bet.
23:27What?
23:28Neil?
23:29Bow.
23:30Apologize.
23:32Apologize.
23:48You!
23:49Who the fuck are you?
23:53Nobody.
23:55Your words.
24:00I lost.
24:05You!
24:06You have to join the national team!
24:08Your ability!
24:09I can...
24:12Another time.
24:22Whoever you are.
24:24Coach's technique.
24:25Coach's presence.
24:26Coach's ten steps.
24:28I will find the answer.
24:29Q&A
24:52Hey kid.
24:52Heard you been making waves.
24:54Kicking a ball so good the whole city knows your name.
24:57Where is she?
24:58Abandon shipyard. East docks. Come alone, because where I play there ain't no rules.
25:03Touch one hair on her head?
25:04You know what? Hit me? Kick me? You know who I am, kid?
25:07They call me Mad Dog. Your little tricks mean jack shit inside the cage.
25:15Bane, the psycho I got lifetime banned 12 years ago. Didn't think he was still around.
25:52You know what this is? Solid lead core. 20 pounds.
25:56Hits a person?
26:01Rules are simple. There ain't none.
26:03You step in, I entertain you with these.
26:05Long as you're standing, she's safe.
26:07You drop, she's target practice.
26:14Get in.
26:15Or maybe I go straight for big sis.
26:23Come on, Mad Dog.
26:33Ready, little hero?
26:35Ready, little hero?
26:57You see that? You see? This is the little genius who showed off at the memorial. In here, genius is
27:04just a piece of meat.
27:06I can't move aside.
27:08I can't move aside.
27:09I certainly cannot fall here.
27:10The ball gets through.
27:12It's Sarah.
27:16You've been guarding your sister, haven't you?
27:19Then I'll aim for the rope.
27:34The rope?
27:35I can't let the ball touch the rope. Even if I block it with my body.
27:39I can't move aside.
27:45Shame.
27:46I thought the kid might be interesting.
27:50See that genius against absolute violence, talent's a joke.
27:54Anyone else?
27:55Stop!
28:02Max, please.
28:04Don't die here.
28:16It's been a long time since anyone made me bleed.
28:25You... how are you still standing?
28:38You...
28:40You...
28:47Fuck!
28:48My arm!
28:50You motherfucker!
28:55You think breaking one arm means you win?
28:57I can still kick you to pieces with one goddamn foot!
29:09You play the same way you did 12 years ago.
29:12All brute force.
29:13No brain.
29:1412 years ago?
29:15How do you know about 12 years ago?
29:16Who the fuck are you?!
29:37You don't belong to the ball.
29:39Get out of my team.
29:41No.
29:43Impossible.
29:44You're dead.
29:45You're supposed to be dead.
29:47Mad Dog.
29:48Stay back!
29:49Stay back!
29:50You're a ghost!
29:51You're a fucking ghost!
29:53Get in here!
29:54All of you!
29:55Kill him!
29:56Everyone up!
29:58Get in!
29:59Come on!
30:00Come on!
30:06It's just one guy!
30:08Everyone together!
30:09Kill him!
30:13You guys really shouldn't have come in.
30:20the way!
30:28The way we want to crawl into the hole,
30:33I know!
30:36what the fuck are you...!
30:39I don't know what to do!
30:40I don't know what to do!
30:41I don't know what to do!
30:43I don't know what to do!
30:44I don't know what to do!
31:01Out.
31:03Next.
31:08Car.
31:09Get the fucking car!
31:18Gordon.
31:20I'll pay. I'll pay.
31:22However much you want.
31:28Turn around.
31:35I... I can give everything back.
31:38Shares, contracts, deeds, all of it.
31:42Not enough.
31:43This, this, everything I took, it's all here.
31:46Take it. Take all of it.
31:52One more thing.
32:00Disappear from Crown City.
32:01Next time you see those two words, walk the other way.
32:05We clear?
32:05Crystal, crystal clear.
32:08I'll never.
32:12You're insane.
32:13Why didn't you wait for me?
32:14It was Sarah.
32:15She sent a location before they grabbed her.
32:18Hit a GPS share in her shoe sole.
32:20I traced the signal for three hours to find this place.
32:31No, Max.
32:34Max.
32:50You're not Max, are you?
32:52From the day you woke up, your eyes, the way you talk, the way you walk, none of it is
32:56him.
32:57Max never looked at people that way.
32:59Max couldn't play football.
33:00Max wouldn't protect me the way you do.
33:02So who the hell are you?
33:04What, what did you do to my brother?
33:10I didn't hurt him.
33:11He's still in here, just letting me borrow him for a while.
33:16I've been protecting you, Sarah.
33:18From day one, no matter who am I, that won't change.
33:23Breaking news, according to morgue staff, the body of deceased football legend Arthur has
33:28mysteriously disappeared early this morning.
33:30CTV shows the suspect is believed to be armed and dangerous.
33:34And some of y'all do.
33:35I think it's a matter of interest in this family.
33:47How long?
33:49Dear God, you, you were pronounced dead three months ago.
33:53Your heart stopped for 48 hours.
33:55This is impossible.
33:56My body, can I still move?
33:58You, you shouldn't be awake.
34:00There's no medical explanation.
34:03I can side that boys feel him.
34:05My other half.
34:07He's still using my technique.
34:18He's awake.
34:22So, the ending wasn't death.
34:26Max, what's wrong?
34:30Nothing.
34:31The story's not over yet.
34:32The story's not over yet.
34:32I don't understand.
34:33The story.
34:35The story.
34:35You
