Babysitting/Script

Script

(Niko goes to a dock when Derrick pulls up in a boat)

Derrick: Get in the boat, me boy. You're the skipper of this little vessel.

or:

Derrick: You're manning this yacht for us, Niko.

Derrick: Take charge of her, won't ya Niko.

(Niko gets in the boat)

Derrick: Our meet is at this location.

or:

Derrick: We're rendezvousing out at sea. This is the place.

Derrick: My contact's at these coordinates.

Derrick: Escorting a Korean contact of mine into the country with a boat load of fake hundred dollar bills.

Niko: As long as the ones he's paying us with are real, it doesn't matter.

Derrick: I owe ya an apology, Niko. I was dosed when you told me you'd killed Bucky and his boys.

Niko: Yeah, you were out of it.

Derrick: I haven't felt safe since Aiden O'Malley went inside.

Niko: Who's Aiden?

Derrick: Me, Bucky and Aiden, we all cared about the same stuff. We came together for a cause we believed in. At least I thought I believed in it. I was young.

Niko: This was a while ago then?

Derrick: Yeah. So Aiden got caught with something when he was somewhere he wasn't meant to be. Needless to say, he'll be inside for a time. Him and Bucky think I talked. Couldn't see no other way how he got caught. From what I hear, Aiden still rants about me to anyone who'll listen.

Niko: I know how it feels to be betrayed.

Derrick: You got that look about you.

(Niko and Derrick find Kim)

Derrick: You Park's boy?

Kim: Yes, I Kim. You Derrick?

Derrick: Yeah, welcome to America. We're meeting your friends in Bohan. I'll text ya the route ya got to take. Best way to avoid checks. We'll cover your rear.

(Kim leaves and the two follow)

Derrick: Another immigrant, arriving in this city, trying to make something of himself.

Niko: Brings a tear to my eye.

Derrick: When this is done I won't have to leech off my brothers no more. This deal should mean I can take care of me self.

Niko: Providing it goes to plan.

Derrick: It's in the hands of the Lord now.

(Boats with attackers began shooting at Kim's boat)

Niko: What the fuck is this?

Derrick: Think I gotta clue? Use our boat to shield Kim from those fuckers. I don't give a shit if this thing sinks, we got to protect him. I'd rather swim home tonight than come back tomorrow to dive for those notes.

(Niko fends off the attackers)

Derrick: Me brothers were right to trust ya, Niko.

or:

Derrick: They shouldn't a messed with you.

Derrick: You know how to handle yourself, Niko.

Derrick: Nice one, me boy.

Derrick: They ain't gonna try that again.

(A helicopter shows up)

Derrick: Shit, they're sending the fucking airborne cavalry after us as well. Good thing we got a rocket launcher with us.

Niko: We've got a what?

Derrick: A rocket launcher. It's in the back. Get rid of the chopper with it. I'll drive the boat.

(Niko shoots down the helicopter)

Derrick: Good shooting, kid. Take charge of her again, will ya?

or:

Derrick: Good thing your aim is steadier than mine. You can drive the boat again now.

Niko: How'd they know we were here?

Derrick: I don't know. I told my dealer I was good for the money I owed him. Maybe a few people at the pub I borrowed money from, as well. You'll say anything for a fix.

Niko: I wouldn't know.

Derrick: Could be a coincidence anyway.

Niko: Or fate?

Derrick: You sound like my mother.

(Kim arrives in Bohan)

Derrick: Here we are. Got him here in one piece. That was the deal. Thanks, Niko.

Kim: Thank you Mr. McReary. Not such smooth journey.

Derrick: Yeah, got a bit hairy out there. Good thing you have your sea legs. I hope the rest of your time here is more peaceful. That's all you can hope for in this God forsaken world. See you round, Niko.

Niko: Don't put all the pay off up your arm, Derrick.

Derrick: Only place for it, me boy. Only place for it. See you soon.

Alternate dialogue

Niko: What's happening out there? I didn't think you had many friends left.

Derrick: This is a Korean guy I did business with back in Ireland. He's bring Super Notes into the country tonight.

Niko: Super Notes?

Derrick: Counterfeits. They look so good you wouldn't spot 'em in a month of Sundays. Over there, we used to buy 'em off him off of him then exchange 'em for genuine currency. Nice scam if you don't hit the same place to often. His boys are pulling the same gig over here.

Niko: They're cutting you in on this deal?

Derrick: Wanted a local to escort their boat into the harbor. They make these things in North Korea and have to ship 'em out here. I've heard it's some government funded operation. I don't give a shit as long as it keeps me in brown, you know. Anyway, I figured you'd know a thing or two about smuggling stuff into the country.

Niko: What's that mean?

Derrick: You're illegal, right? You think us McRearys was legal when we came here? This is a country founded by immigrants. People who'll beg, steal and borrow to get ahead. It's the life blood of the place, people forget that.

(Niko and Derrick begin to escort Kim)

Derrick: Seems like a good kid, reminds me of you actually.

Niko: Is that because he's coming into the country to rob the good people of America of their hard earned money?

Derrick: When you put it like that, he reminds me of a McReary. Good luck to him.

(Attackers show up)

Niko: Doesn't look like the arrival of these notes was such a secret. Can you think of why that is?

Derrick: Fucked if I know. Maybe me phone's tapped. Maybe Frankie has been tapping Ma's fucking phone and he called this in to mess with me. We got to make sure these notes make it, just to piss off Frankie if nothing else.

(Niko and Derrick escort Kim to Bohan)

Derrick: I didn't think he even knew I was back. Can't the man just let his brother be? It's like fucking Cain and Abel the two of us. No wonder I turned into the wreck you see before ya. A brother like that. Jesus.

Niko: So, is Francis the only explanation for this shit?

Derrick: If the shoe fits, Niko. If the bloody shoe fits. Sure, I been telling a few people about this, but, hell, I smell a rat. And Frankie's the biggest damn rat I know.

Other dialogue

(If Niko exits the boat)

Derrick: Get back in the boat.

Derrick: What the fuck are you doing?

Derrick: Sort your shit out. Get back in the boat so we can look for Kim.

Derrick: Don't tell me you dropped something overboard.

Derrick: You got better things to be doing than take a swim, Niko.

Failing the mission

Derrick: I'm gonna go drown my sorrows. I'll speak to you soon.

or:

Derrick: There's only one thing that's gonna make me forget about this fuck up. See ya.

Derrick: Shit, I hope me dealer will front me another dime bag. I'll call ya, Niko.
