Factual error: At the end of movie, the TV speaker says US Embassy in Istanbul was bombed by terrorists. US does not have an embassy in Istanbul, Turkey, but has a consulate. Embassies are located in the Capital, i.e. Ankara. (01:49:45)
Swordfish (2001)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Dominic Sena
Starring: John Travolta, Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Don Cheadle, Sam Shepard, Vinnie Jones
After Gabe fakes the airplane escape and the bus carried by the helicopter drops onto the top of the building, Gabriel and his thugs plan to escape in a helicopter on the roof. As the police are storming up the building to catch them Gabe gets onto the helicopter and flys away. As this happens Stan finds the RPG's from the bus and fires one into the helicopter and kills Gabriel (supposedly). Later Stan goes to indentify the body and has a flashback of Gabe not getting in the helicopter and going down a small staircase on the roof. The next scene Gabe and Ginger (who are alive) go to pick up the money and sail off in a boat. During this sequence a boat explodes that supposedly belonged to a terrorist leader (telling us that Gabrial is a patriot). The movie end with Stan and his daughter on a road trip in the midwest. Everyone lives happily ever after.

Ginger: If you want a chance in hell at getting your daughter back, you better listen up. Unless of course, you want to stay here, in this loser existence, while your daughter grows up to be the fluffer in her daddy's new videos.
Stanley Jobson: Please pay me the courtesy of not confusing your own childhood with my daughter's.

Chosen answer: Scene 1: T: Funktioniert alles noch? (Everything all right?) L: Es geht (more or less). Scene 2: L: Sagen Sie nichts mehr (Don't say anything). T: Ja. L: Ich kriege Sie hier raus und zurueck nach Europa (I will get you out of here and back to Europe). T: Sie wissen, dass die beiden Affen noch hinter dem Spiegel sind (You know that these two monkeys are behind this mirror). Scene 3: L: Das macht die Lage auch nicht besser (That doesn't improve the situation). The Lawyer speaks German as a foreign language, Thovald's German is perfect.
