breaks the arm of the heavy with the implements that were intended to break his own arm. For Brendan's tip-off, Finney gifts him a brand new Jaguar. Back at the hotel, Cosmo is honored for the "America Week" festival. The Polish band is enlisted at the last minute to sub in for the originally scheduled band. Meanwhile, Kate is at the event in the company of a corpulent executive who makes sexual advances on her. When Kate subsequently asks for the night off at the restaurant, her boss fires her, and she responds by breaking several stacks of plates. Andrej Slominski, a member of the Krakow Jazz Ensemble, invites Brendan and Kate to a Polish social club, where they watch a live musical performance that moves Kate to tears. While leaving the club, Cosmo's associate, Bob, signals for Brendan to stop his car during a rainstorm. When he does, Bob and several henchmen attack them, but Brendan manages to retrieve a gun from his glove compartment, and kills one of them. An injured Brendan flees with Kate to the Royal Station Hotel, where they hide in Andrej's room. The following morning, Finney meets with Cosmo and agrees to sell his club. Meanwhile, Kate confesses to Brendan that she knows Bob and worked for Cosmo. Worried that Cosmo will have them killed, Kate asks Brendan to return to the United States with her to her hometown in Minnesota, to which he agrees. Kate drives Brendan's Jaguar to her apartment to retrieve her things, but is surprised there by Cosmo, who claims there are two plane tickets to Minneapolis waiting for her at Heathrow Airport. Meanwhile, one of Cosmo's associates plants a bomb in the Jaguar which will detonate at midnight. Kate returns to get Brendan, who is skeptical of the alleged airline tickets, as he had heard in a radio broadcast that the airline cancelled its flights. They go to the Key Club to speak with Finney, who is with Cosmo, about to sign over the club. There, Brendan allows Andrej and his girlfriend Christine to borrow his Jaguar. As Andrej and Christine drive away, the bomb detonates, killing them. Brendan aims his gun at Cosmo, but Finney convinces him not to pull the trigger. Finney tears up the contract, and a defeated Cosmo leaves the club. Cast Production Concept and casting The production was initially a low-budget project funded by
