shooting out the clip at rhythmic intervals gina come and get me tony before it s too late he spins across the run away from the desk trying to put distance between them she sees him scurrying turns an expression like a demented angel gina come on tony fuck me fuck me fuck me advancing on him firing the furniture tearing up the chair spilling television sets and computer toys shattering tony squirming away hit again in the thigh shocked scrambling over to the terrace windows her next shot shatters the window and as tony ducks again to the side we see outside onto the terrace behind him a young columbian punk no more than twenty one of the hitters is crouched there reacting to the broken window he doesn t hesitate turning his machine gun on gina gina is torn to pieces by the firepower blown across the room spine severed and dead before she hits the floor tony sees it yells something in the same instant swivels to knock the barrel of the machine gun aside the punk is taken by surprise not having seen tony and tony now runs him backwards across the balcony and hurls him over the balustrade the punk lands in one of the shallow pools on the grounds at the base of the balcony tony from above grabs up the punk s machine gun and empties the whole clip into the figure thrashing in the pool below ernie runs into view on the far side of the pool spots tony yells up ernie get outta here tony they re everywhere ernie suddenly wheels hit in the face by a burst of silencer bullets we catch a brief glimpse of sosa s black aide the skull moving quickly along the wall of the house directly underneath the balcony on which tony stands tony tossing the empty machine gun aside wildly runs back into his office to get more guns crosses to gina corpse it takes him by surprise he comes to a dead stop kneels looking questioningly in her face tony hey gina come on you still angry at me i didn t mean to kill manny i was i was running his hands along her face trying to rouse her

him a grenade goes off blows him up against the door tony cheeee he now seems to come out of his catatonia runs to his sideboard hauls out a rocket shoulder fired rocket launcher and straps an uzi across his shoulder he looks up at the monitor on the monitors the hitters are now darting across the foyer and coming up the left and right hand stairs three of them are already huddled outside the door around the corpse of chi chi motioning to each other laying a grenade at the base of the door to blow it out tony loading his rocket intends to beat them to the punch talking to himself tony so you wanna play hunh say hello to my little friend here karroooomph the rocket tears down the door and blows the columbian punks off the landing into the foyer it sounds like armageddon one of the

lousy bullets hunh another hitter tumbles down the right hand stair tony who you think i am i kill all you fuckin assholes i take you all to fuckin hell another hitter drops screaming off the stairs into the pool below a grenade goes off tony is hit again but keeps on firing away laughing like a madman tony you need an army you hear an army to kill me behind him we see the remainder of the pound of cocaine go up in a burst of wind whipping around the office in auras of white it is a ghostly effect out of which now appears the face of the skull moving from the terrace towards tony s back with a sawed off shotgun tony ha ha ha ha ha you whores you scum i piss in your faces ha ha ha ha ha the skull now inches from tony s back pulls the trigger and blows tony s spine out his belly tony crashes forward over the banister into the interior swimming pool below he floats quietly face down in the lit blue waters as the titles begin their crawl up the music theme is expressive salsa with a dash of gaiety the camera moving off tony to catch the reflection of the lit sculpture on the surface of the still waters it says the world is yours and so for the brief moment it was our camera now distancing itself from the body in the pool panning past the dream villa past the shambles and the wealth past the hitters pillaging and looting and drawing that obscene word chivato in blood on the outside walls past the stacks of cash blowing across the floor like leaves in autumn with the looters running after it across the busted door with the tropic wind blowing down coconut grove to the miami skyline across biscayne bay the end
