Where's the money, or beef?

Rating: 7/10 (19 August 2010)

Moss was killed by the Mexican group that was tipped (unknowingly) by his mother-in-law. The hit-squad though, could not find the cash. Later, Chirgh enters the motel to look for the money and also can not find it? Why else would he apparently still be there (in an adjoining room) when Bell arrives? Or was he only symbolically there?
Radical interpretation: Bell finds the money (and then retires from the police force.) This would also explain the director's attempts to show a mysterious inner-bond between Bell and Chirgh, such as the "milk" scene where they are identically reflected on a dead TV screen. I found this connection unsubstantiated, unlike another film "Manhunter" which explored a creepy-believable connection between detective and (in this case) Hannibal Lecter. But hey, let's take it to another level to substantiate their connection: Chirgh is the illegitimate son of Bell, from his Mexican girlfriend!
Beef question: is the Chirgh unstoppable? Yes, IF he is solely a symbolic "dream" death figure wandering through the world as master of its (ironically, lack of chance) elements. Notice that in all his death-dealing scenarios there is never the stray person that pops in unexpectedly, the off-duty cop or gun carrying vigilante. As a human-being though, Chirgh is definitely stoppable. If Moss would not have been so stupid (lock-cylinder to head, duh!) he could have nailed Chirgh in his motel room after he first found the transponder. He needed to simply place his armed ass to the side of the door. As insurance, I would have packed some pillows out from the wall on the door's hinge-side opposite of where I would be placed. This would divert attention just enough for a clean kill. Hasta la vista, Chirgh!
