At the climax of Grosse Point Blank, Martin Blank and Grocer are exchanging shots in the kitchen of Bart and Debi's home.

Two NSA agents (Lardner and McCullers) show up, intending to kill Blank (as Grocer asked them to do).

Seeing how the agents were working with Grocer, who invited them so they could kill Blank for him, I would have expected Grocer to use the distraction and shoot Blank.

Instead, Grocer joins Blank in killing the agents, happily yelling "Workers of the world, UNITE!" and ending up with empty clips.

Why did Grocer help Blank shoot the agents instead of helping the agents shoot Blank?
