(Spoilers) How did XXXX know?


Just saw the movie today for the first time, enjoyed it a lot.

Something that I wondered though: How did XXXX know that Dragan wasn't going to kill him when he failed to deliver the pills?

He was obviously expecting Dragan to be watching his meeting, but even if "the police raided the place", Dragan could have decided to shoot him anyway for the inconveniences caused. It was just 1 drug dealer less in the world.

It seemed like a huge gamble to make for XXXX, specially with how the Serbians had no problem in offing anyone.

Obviously we know the pills meant nothing to the Serbian boss, but not sure how XXXX could have known something like that.

He was taking a gamble. If he was killed it made no difference - dead either way.
