Tick, tock, tick, tock tick, tock, tick, tock...

No...

Oh, God

Sean?

Sean?

I'm here, I'm here

Where are we?

I don't know

It feels like a box of some kind.

Oh, my God! Help!

What do you remember?

That guy at the house last night

He just came out of the shadows at me.

I tried to get away Sean I did, but couldn't...

He said he was gonna kill us

Oh, my God!

Help! What's happening?

Help us!

Wait, I feel something

What? What is it?

It feels like a lighter Hold on, hold on.

Okay, I got it

Oh, my God, no!

Help us!

Help us! Anyone! This thing isn't moving

Rona, listen to me Help us!

Come on, come on

I don't think anyone can hear us, okay?

I can't breathe

Here, Sweetie, look at me I can't breathe.

We've got to save our energy, okay?

Just stay calm, stay calm

What is that? What?

Oh, my God... Is that a video camera?

That sick bastard is videotaping us.

There's a box here, there's a box.

There Okay.

I got it. Okay.

Oh, thank God

All right, wait

Oh, my God

We've got flashlights

Oh, my God, oh, my God!

Help

There's a phone

There's a phone!

Ohh

Shoot

I think it's blocked

What? We can't call out

Oh, no

Oh, my God, oh, my God

"By the time you're reading this

the clock will already be ticking.

The estimation is that you probably only have

75 more minutes before your oxygen runs out

It says, "As you've already discovered

there's no escape from your coffin.

Your only hope of survival

depends on the actions of one man.

Only he can save you

His name

His name is Jack Samms

Oh, my.

Sean? Sean?

I'm here. I'm here

Where are I’ve?

I don't know

It feels... Like a box of some kind

Oh, my God! Help!

What do you remember?

That guy at the house last night

Hello, Jack

How the hell did you get in here?

That's not really important

What is this?

Who are you?

The question, Jack

is what are you prepared to do?

Yes, go for the knives, Jack

Where is my wife?

But if you're the smart man I think you are,

you'll listen to what I have to say.

How do you know my name?

Word gets around

Is this about money?

If this is about money, I can pay.

Okay?

Let's just talk this through and we'll be fine.

Your wife, Rona

She's a beautiful woman

Do you love her?

What? What are you

Answer the question, Jack

What are you.. Do you love her?

Of course I love my wife

Because I hear

sometimes one can fall out of love.

You two have been married for what... Five years?

Just tell me where she is

I won't tell the cops I swear.

Humor me, Jack

How long have you been married?

Six years, next month

Now please!

Does she still do it in the bedroom for you?

Just tell me what this is about

You break into my home

you start asking me questions that make no sense.

Please! I have money, I can pay!

Please just tell me where my wife is!

You will learn to answer all my questions,

or today will be very, very bad for you

So answer the question

Like with any marriage

it might be getting a little routine.

When was the last time you had sex?

Come on!

I will not warn you again!

I don't even know

It's been weeks, maybe months

I don't know, okay?

I guess that's why you slept with that cocktail waitress.

A man does have his needs

Pay attention, class

That is a live feed from a video camera

that I've placed in your wife's coffin

I provided them with flashlights

so they could see their surroundings

Who are you?

You can call me... Trick

Obviously it's not my real name...

I just kind of like it

Where is she?

How can I get her back?

I think you've already lost her, Jack.

It's a test

What kind of a test?

A test to see if your wife and her lover

can last in that box more than 75 minutes

before their oxygen runs out

Tell me where she is!

Have you ever seen anyone die of suffocation, Jack?

Hmm?

That look of sheer primal terror as the respiration arrests.

You know, and then

and then that sudden last twitch

and then something so sublime so calm, so still...

And then nothing

as if you can see the life

just lift off the body like, like a ghost.

It's quite beautiful, really.

You tell me where she is you sick son of a bitch!

Do it if you want, Jack

but you will still be the only suspect.

You see, I'm a man who puts people in situations,

and it's how they react to that situation that's key!

And this is your situation

Your wife has been having an affair, and you know it!

Now she and her lover are trapped

in that wooden tomb underground

and they're losing air by the second!

So, yeah, you can try to clip me out of this picture

and try to find her on your own.

Or you can go to the cops and try to find her,

hopefully in 75 minutes!

But the fact remains, man, there's only one person who

really knows where she is, and you're looking at him!

So going to the cops will definitely make you

Suspect Number One!

So what do I do?

What do you do?

Come here!

You have less than 75 minutes

to do exactly what I tell you to do

and save your wife

Or you can try to beat the murder rap

and let them die and do this all on your own!

The choice is yours

You want money, don't you?

Well, money is a driving factor, yes

But you know what?

I just find it kind of fun watching people like you squirm

Why me?

Why her?

Why not?

Let's go for a drive shall we?

Ahh!

We're gonna die in here

Hey, don't say that Don't!

We have time to figure this out

You know, he wouldn't be videotaping us

if he wasn't coming back for us

Because he wants to watch us suffocate, Sean

I'll find a way out, okay?

I'll find a way out

Mind putting these on for me, Sport?

I thought you said you were gonna cut him off back there

Well, Epperson, tonight I thought

you could use a little exercise

Out of breath?

Well, you look like an insurance agent

Let's get that down

Out here, this means something

You've got to let them see it

Let's go, kid

All right, let's just take him down for the lineup...

No, no, no I'm sorry.

That is a huge waste of time What are you doing?

Don't do this. Watch and learn

Scott! Let's go, jackass

Are you kidding me?

Epperson

You are

You are not taking this kid Into that woman's apartment

Scott. Scott!

Miss Franks?

Detectives Scott and Epperson here

We need a suspect ID from you, please.

Come on back

Stay right here

Miss Franks?

Yeah, come on in

Miss Fran Sorry.

Sorry for what?

Did you catch the perv or what?

Yeah, we think so

Then you shouldn't be sorry.

Miss Franks, perhaps it would be best if you...

Call me Frankie

Miss Franks makes me sound like my mother or something.

Okay.

Frankie, what I was saying is

perhaps it would be best if you get some clothes on

and let's get this show on the road.

Want a cigarette?

I don't smoke

You can look at me, Detective

I'm sure a man like you has seen way more than this before.

Yeah, I have

Now get your clothes on and let's go make an ID

What are you lookin' at, shithead?

You like climbin' trees

and lookin' in people's windows, huh?

Well, it finally got you caught

I might have slipped on my way down to the floor

Shut up, idiot

Is that the peeper? Yeah, that's him.

Get him out of here Get him in the car.

So, uh

Miss Franks, I was thinking

If you wouldn't walk around here with the blinds open

Wearing... What it is you're wearing,

we wouldn't have to come out here and do this sort of thing.

I'm gonna take that into consideration.

Thank you

Please do Okay.

Good evening See you soon

We could have driven my car

I won't be going back to your house, Jack.

I'd rather you be the one to hail the cab ride home

If you're a good boy, I might even pay the fare

Where are we going?

You know where we're going

The bank is closed

I'm sure you'll think of something.

I just had some investments go south recently.

I can get my hands on some money.

How much do you want?

How much is she worth?

Wait, let me rephrase

How much do you think your life of freedom is worth?

You can't ask me that

You're not very good at answering questions

are you, Jack?

You can't put a price on lives, that's all I'm saying

I can only get my hands on so much in the next hour

You better hurry up!

Time is ticking!

You ever consider a nicotine patch?

Yeah, I've considered it

I'm wearin' one

It doesn't work

Gum doesn't work

Acupuncture is crap

Quittin' cold turkey is pretty much out of the question

so I started my own system

Put it in my mouth don't light it.

It's workin

Yeah, it's workin' like gang-busters

So, you guys get a lot of peeping toms around here?

Na

Well, no more than any other place, I guess

That's the most action you're ever gonna see out here

I do miss the East Side

How long you been out here?

Four boring-ass years

You shoot one scumbag drug dealer, unarmed...

Media makes a huge deal about it

the department wants to make a lesson out of you

so they transfer you

You know what I should do?

I should shoot somebody out here

and see if they transfer me back

Yeah? Scott here

Yeah

Hold on a second

All right, go ahead

Mmm-hmm

The address?

Okay.

Yeah, we'll do a drive-by.

Okay.

Well, what was that about?

Some guy didn't show up for work, like, two days

and now his landlady is sayin' somebody

messed with the locks on his door.

All right, well, let's get going

We will... As soon as I finish my dinner

Hey, every minute counts

Epperson, is it always gonna be like this with you?

Because I have worked the beat.

You haven't

And for the record, my last partner was a woman

and she didn't nag one bit

Hey, good call on this turkey whole-wheat thing

It sucks

Let's just, uh

cover every seam where the boards meet

If we can get a little separation

maybe we can get some leverage to pry it open.

If we go through the floor

we're just gonna hit all that dirt.

I think, I think it's sand

so maybe we can just dig our way through, you know?

We'll start with the floor first and work our way to the walls

Yeah, but I don't

It's something, Rona!

At least we have to try something!

I mean, if you have a better idea, just tell me now

Look, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Here, give me your light

Put it right here, okay?

Right there

All right, we should save the batteries.

Yeah. All right. Okay.

Can you do one more thing for me?

I'll try. All right

We need to breathe shallow

and just force yourself to relax

Okay.

We should be able to buy ourselves

some extra time in here

maybe enough time until he comes back for us

Okay? Okay.

We can do this Yeah.

Start with the floor

Okay. All right

How are you doing, Sweetheart?

Are you the apartment manager who called earlier?

Yes, Sir

They said they'd be sending someone right over

I've been waiting

Yes, I apologize

Something came up, police business, you understand

I need to get to my other rental property.

Okay, this will only take a couple of minutes,

just a few questions real quick.

Epperson, would you mind... Takin' a couple notes for us?

Thank you

Uh, first question, Sweetheart your name?

Penelope Grant

Uh, Penelope

Do you mind if I call you Penelope?

Thank you

Uh, Penelope, when you saw that the lock had been broken

and the door was partially open did you enter the premises?

No, I called Mr. Sean and he didn't answer.

He hasn't been around here for a couple of days,

so, I called the police on my cellphone.

How long have you been renting to, uh, Mr. Sean Justice?

Six, maybe seven months

Okay.

Has anything like this ever happened before...

The broken lock

any unusual people around the property?

No. Never

Well, that's good enough for me

Uh, Epperson here will get your information

and we'll call you if we need anything

Excuse me one second

Do you think we should maybe schedule a formal statement?

Epperson!

You kill me!

That's funny, that's really funny.

Penelope, a pleasure

How's this looking?

I just called Crime Scene

They are en route

but they got a little hung up, so

Yeah

Is there a "Law & Order" marathon on cable tonight?

Here.

You know what?

I am a good detective for the record.

Epperson, all I know is

you've been pushin' pencils your entire career.

Now they suddenly have you riding shotgun in my car.

I don't give a shit if you're a good detective

just don't try and change the way I do things.

It looks like you got this under control

I’ll go check out the bedroom

Now you're talking like a good detective

Up yours, Burnout

There's nothing, Sean

Okay, come on

We're gonna work the walls, okay?

Work the walls

We shouldn't have done what we did.

What do you mean?

I cheated on my husband with you,

now we're being punished

We're not being punished

Yes, we are

Why else would that psycho have mentioned Jack's name?

He knows about us

No, there's no way.

Yes, he does. How else would Jack be involved?

Come on, you're overreacting

I'm not overreacting!

He's gonna kill us for what we did.

God, it was so stupid!

Don't say that

It was us... It wasn't stupid

If anything, this is Jack's doing

Jack is not even capable for something like this.

He is a good person

A good person?

Come on What?

You can't... Take back the things you told me about him

just because we're in this now

You two aren't even in a marriage and you know it

Don't start blaming yourself for this now.

I'm not blaming myself

So, so you're blaming me?

Are you blaming me?

I didn't say that

Shit! Just, just, just stop

We have to breathe shallow

I'm sorry.

I'm just scared

Now this is what I want

Why haven't they call me?

Think, Jack

Would I put a phone in there

where they could make outgoing calls?

By now you should know me much better than that.

That phone can only receive phone calls.

I want to talk to her

And what are you gonna tell her?

That you're on your way?

That you're her knight in shining armor?

Come on, man, you already failed her in marriage.

What makes you think your voice is gonna be any comfort to her?

I want to say I'm sorry.

You're already planning on failing.

God, it must be miserable to be such a loser in life.

Just let me talk to her! No!

The plan stands

You do as I say, or she dies,

plain and simple

Tick, tock, tick, tock

I would have called, but you destroyed my phone

Then I guess you better find a pay phone.

What'd you get?

Well, nothing to write home about

Uh, no keys, but the car was gone

so either he drove himself

or whoever broke in took the car.

I did find some receipts on his dresser

from the last couple of days

Thursday, 46 on gas

Yeah

Um, looks like he dropped

It's not itemized, so we don't know what he got.

Right, right

Uh, let's see what else we got here

Dinner at Mambo's

Now this is interesting

He spent $180 at Mambo's

so unless he ordered, like three bottles of wine

He had someone with him

Or someones

You know, it's probably nothing but if you could find out,

by running his credit card what he got,

I don't know, it might lead to something.

I'm on it

Now this is interesting

Looks like he was quite enamored.

Hmm... Pretty girl

Yeah. Nice

It came with those

Hello! Mmm-hmm

He can take pictures

That's my, uh, that's my favorite

Here we go. Nice composition there

Wait a second

Why does she look familiar?

See, I was thinking the same thing.

I can't place it, though

She's on, uh, on TV or something?

Hey, hey.

That, uh, no, that commercial

Uh, Dave's Corn Chips

The one with the dog and she's chasing him

Ran during football season

♪ You'll be sworn Dave's Corn.. ♪

Right, right, right

Country Barbeque... Best ever

Um, same girl different hair.

Right. It’s definitely her

Hmm

You know what? Try to get her name

Talk to her and see what she knows.

Done

Okay.

Well, he was definitely grabbed on the couch, I would say.

Knocked over the table crushed the lamp...

Wine glass, yeah but then...

Doesn't make sense, does it?

Unless... There were two attacks

Either that, or maybe Sean Justice

wasn't taken from here at all

Maybe whoever did it took him from somewhere else

and came back here

just to make it look like they took him from here

Yeah, but why would they do that?

We've got to figure that out

Maybe you're not such a burnout after all.

Cheers, Bud

On second thought

What's going on?

I can't talk here. Let's just get inside

Come on

I'll tell you all about this later on

I can't talk right now, all right?

You're gonna have to give me something

I know. I could lose my job

I get it. I understand

I don't want you to lose your job.

Hey, I think I've got something here.

What is it?

There's a knot in the wood here

but it's loose

Oh, my God

If I just keep chippin' away.

What about the sand?

One problem at a time, okay?

Okay. All right

Hold on... Where's my flashlight?

There it is. Okay.

Here we go

Oh, God, I need to make it bigger

If I could just get it in there I could break the wood.

Burn it!

What? Burn it.

Just use the lighter and burn around the edges

If this thing catches fire we'll burn alive

Just enough to get the flashlight through

Come on, Sean!

Rona.. We are running out of time

Your headband

What? Give me your headband

Okay.

Come on. Oh, my God

There, see? It's loose, it's loose

Look at that. Oh, my God!

Okay.

Garrison, I can't talk about it, okay?

I’m almost out of time

Whatever you can do I appreciate it.

See what you can do

Jack, you're gonna have to give me something.

We're friends, but I can lose my job over this

I understand

I just need your help, okay? I'm in a jam...

I promise to clear all this up.

Just tell me what you can do for me, okay?

Okay.

He's gonna let me know how much I can get.

Ten minutes

Stay here

I have to make a phone call

Is that your man?

How much can I get?

It's a process with CDs that large, Jack

and it's after hours

I mean, if you hadn't burned out your savings we could..

How much?

What is going on?

Please! How much?

550,000

But it's not gonna hit until morning.

I need it now, Garrison!

I can't! I can't!

My hands are tied

Give me a minute

Jack

He can get me $550,000 by morning

This is Jack's doing.

Looks like you're running out of time, Jack

I can get you proof that you'll have your funds.

Please, just tell me where she is.

I've already told you, Jack

Once I have the money in my hands,

then I will tell you where your wife is

and the man she's been cheating on you with.

I'll be right back

I'll be right back.

What's going on? Is there somebody in there?

Garrison, listen to me

I need that money, and I need it right now

I can't. I told you, I can't

Loan it to me! What?

Loan me the money. You know I'm good for it

I could have you apply for a loan,

but you know how long that's gonna take.

No, you loan it to me. I know you have the funds

You can withdraw the money, you can give me the cash.

I'll give you the money back when I cash out the CDs.

I'm not gonna do this unless you tell me

what the hell is going on

I have a wife and a family.

I can't get mixed up in something.

I can't

But I need that money right now

How long have we known each other?

Oh, don't play that with me

All right

All right, I'll get you 500,000

But I have to have it back in the morning

Thank you

How long?

Thirty minutes

Why don't you come inside...

No, no

I'll stay out here, okay? I'll stay out here.

Just keep this quiet, okay? It's very important.

I need to keep this quiet

Can you do something else for me?

I need to know who rented this car with this matching number.

Can you do that for me? I'm a banker.

Please? It's very important

All right, okay.

All right? Fine, fine

Get back

He's gonna loan me $500,000. I'm gonna pay him back tomorrow

You'll have your money in thirty minutes.

Very good

What about the other 50?

What other 50?

You said I could get 550,000

I want the other 50

But I can't get it until tomorrow.

You never gave me a price. You said whatever I could get

I know, but 550,000

sounds so much better than 500,000.

And now you have my heart set on 550,000.

Trick Yes?

Please!

It looks like you're gonna have to find another 50,000

Thirty minutes?

Yeah

Let's get a drink

You really should have let us in the house first, Scott.

Is that what they teach you in science class, Pops?

You could have tainted the evidence

Not my first rodeo, nerds

All right, we've got some information here

Uh, the lovely lady from the pictures is Rona Samms

model-turned-actress

done a bunch of 'B' movies

the commercial thing

Uh, the waitress from Mambo’s who was working Thursday night

uh, is supposed to be in later this evening.

Now, I left my cellphone

She'll call

Hopefully we'll get lucky there

And then Sean Justice's work said everything seemed normal

until a couple of days ago when he didn't show up for work,

and no one's heard from him since

has not returned any phone calls.

What's next?

Well, I am going to die of boredom here

I say we cruise on over to Rona Samms,

give her a talk, see what she knows

Please tell me you have an address

Right here

Perfect. Let's roll

See you later, Sweetheart

9-1-1... Is this an emergency?

No, it's not an emergency,

but could you connect me with the police department, please?

You didn't think I was gonna

wear that thing all night, did you?

What are you drinking?

I'm not really in the mood

I said, what are you drinking?

Whiskey, rocks

Make it two

What's up, man?

Two whiskeys, rocks

You got it

Come on, come on!

Damn it. Okay, hold on I got an idea.

What are you doing? There we go.

All right, watch this

Oh.

Oh, my God!

Look! Oh, my God

What is it?

Looks like, I can see the moon

Oh my God! We're not buried deep

Oh, my God

We got air, Baby!

Oh, my God!

We've got air. We can breathe

Oh, we got air

See how it's just a... A little bit of sand on top?

We're not buried all the way down.

Oh, my God

Oh, we can breathe

So we can breathe We can breathe.

We can breathe

Ha! Screw you, buddy!

Screw you!

Oh. Yeah

We can breathe

Sean.. Yeah?

I don't want to be here when he gets back.

Me neither

To a successful business transaction

Where are you getting my final 50,000 from?

I don't envy you, Jack

being stuck in a situation like this

You put me in this situation

Correction, you put yourself in this situation.

Never let issues between A man and a woman fester

That's what my old man used to tell me.

Of course that was after my mother dumped him.

What's stopping me? From telling these people

You’re holding me hostage?

Holding you hostage?

Don't go anywhere, hostage

We'll find a way out, okay?

I promise you, we'll find a way out

Son of a bitch

Excuse me, buddy? My name's Larry.

That's Larry. Thanks.

I just saw you take one of those pills and...

I'm not one of those drug heads

if that's what you're getting at!

That's not what I meant

I just wanted to see if I could borrow some of those pills.

Why?

I’ve got a headache

These pills help you go to sleep.

I only take one because of the booze

I thought it would help me relax

and sleep this headache off

Please?

Buy me a drink

What? He said buy him a drink

I got it, man!

I'm Mitch

What are you drinkin'?

Bud

Bud for my friend

Thanks, Larry.

Hey, what the hell?

What?

The beer buys you two sleeping pills,

not the whole bottle

How much for the whole bottle?

Those are pricey pills

But I've got a tab going

Put Larry's tab on this

I'm impressed With what?

Most people try to run

You're playin' this smart, Jack

So you've done this sort of thing before, huh?

I've been around

Yeah, okay, got it

Yeah, we know the place We're headed there now

Okay, thanks

Shit's goin' down, Epperson

Yeah? Yeah.

Guy from the bank just called in,

said he got a request for a lot of money

to be taken out tonight

The guy was also suspicious and spooked

The guy's name... Jack Samms

Rona Samms husband?

Sounds like it

So then Samms asked him to look up who rented a rental car

Here's the number

Let me guess... You want me to call the rental car company.

I drive, you make the calls that was the deal.

You hear that?

What?

Is that water?

Oh, my God!

Are we in water?

I think it's the ocean

Oh, my God, oh, my God

Hey, hey!

No, no, no, no. It’s okay, it's okay.

You know, the sand, right?

He's probably buried us near the shoreline or something.

We're not in the water, okay?

Okay. It’s okay, Baby.

But I can hear the water

Shh... It's okay.

It's okay.

We'll be fine

I'm already drunk! Should I do this?

I'm making a fool of myself/

Mmm, I love drunk women

Because they don't realize

you're trying to disguise yourself

Which begs the question, Trick

Why the disguise?

If you really thought this out so well

why not show me who you really are?

There are rules

But the rules just changed didn't they, Trick?

I saw the video

They're not underground

I saw the light coming through the roof

which means they can breathe

which means you don't have dick to stand on!

Okay.

Maybe they will, uh, live past the deadline

but I'm still the only one

who knows exactly where they are.

You're willing to wait me out, Jack?

You boys feel like dancing?

Actually, we're kind of in the middle of something right now

I'm Camille

And this other hot chick is Heather.

Come on... You know you want to

Ladies, I'm No.

Dance with them

No, no! Wait!

Dance with them

Come on No!

I'm gonna turn you on

like you've never been turned on before.

Who knows Fine.

You might even like it

I'll go get another for you

Okay.

You're sexy.

Are you married?

We're fine, we're fine It's just water.

Sean! What?

No, no, no. We're okay, we're okay.

It's not gonna fill up

Help us!

No one can hear us!

We don't know! We're not underground!

We have to try.

Well, he wouldn't bury us where someone could find us

We don't know!

Help us! Help us!

Help! Help!

Anyone! Help us!

Help!

Help us!

He asked me if I could loan him 500,000, and I agreed

He said he'd pay me back with, uh

his CDs that he'd cash out in the morning

So he's coming back for the money soon?

Yeah, he'll be back in a few minutes.

Mr. Garrison, how much money exactly can he cash out?

Well, he has a few hundred thousand in the CDs.

I mean, some of his investments went south

but, you know, I'm really not at liberty to say.

Mr. Garrison, I can come back in here with a warrant

and do a can opener on your computer.

This is a minor detail in a preliminary investigation

What harm could it do

to tell us how much cash he has access to?

He has, uh, 550,000 and some change in his CD

Uh-oh... It looks like they're having drinks

Drinks?

Yeah, the credit card it's just...

His credit card, Mr. Garrison?

Uh, you know

Mr. Garrison, you're really starting to piss me off.

Somebody just ran their credit card.

It's at Casa Cabral

It's about five minutes from here.

I know right where that is

Is this your cell number?

Yeah

What should I do with the money?

We'll call you

Damn it, the water's still comin' in.

Oh, my God

How much longer can this go on, Sean?

We will drown! No, we will not!

We'll take turns plugging the hole

It's still coming in

It's coming in through the cracks

It is coming in!

Oh, my God! Help us!

Do you have a car here?

I need some help over here!

Camille?

Oh, my God, Camille! Are you okay?

Camille, wake up, Honey.

What did you do?

Camille? Camille!

She just had too much to drink

Did she drink that stuff you put in that drink?

Mitch, you've had too much to drink yourself

Let's go

Did you 'Spike' her drink?

What the hell, man?

Call her an ambulance

Dude, this is my bar

If you put something in that girl's drink,

I'm calling more than an ambulance

No, I saw him

He smashed up all of Larry's pills

and put them in that drink.

You are sick!

Mitch! Call the cops

Don't! Do it, Mitch!

Everybody.

Everybody stay cool

No one's callin' the cops

Hey, man, relax, all right?

You don't want to hurt her

Everybody on the floor

Now!

You too, Larry.

Looks like Sean Justice is blackmailing the Samms

or working with them. But what?

That's what we're gonna find out

Not a good idea, Jack. You're running out of time

They have air, you son of a bitch!

Oh, thank God No! Down!

Behind the bar?

No. wait

I saw it on the camera when you were on the phone

I'll take my chances with the cops...

Air is not their problem!

The whole time you were trying to drug me in the bar

your poor wife was trying to keep her head above water

Bad boy, Jack, bad boy!

Your name? Pete.

Anyone else here?

There were two guys that just left.

One had a laptop

Did you run a credit card on one?

She's breathing

All right, people!

Did they say where they were going?

He also put a fork to this lady's throat

and said he'd kill her if we tried to stop him

Stop him from what? Leaving.

I was gonna call the cops The guy freaked out.

He put some pills in the hot chicks' drinks

I saw him

She has a really weak pulse

but she's gonna be okay.

We have to get her to a hospital.

In the meantime we have to induce vomiting

I'll let you handle that

This is about to get really messy.

All right, everyone sit tight

Help's on the way.

You're leaving? Where are you going?

This is Detective Epperson I need medical assistance...

Garrison, we're coming back to you.

What do I do? He's coming back for the money.

Get him the money but stall him.

We’re on our way.

What's... Goin' on here?

You mind switchin' places for a second?

Okay.

All right, there you go Take the flashlight.

Okay. Leave it there a second

It's still coming in. I know. We can slow it down!

Help us!

Help!

Help us!

Come on!

Here, Babe. Maybe if we both try.

Oh, no

Come on

I know the water's gonna keep comin' in

It's okay... We have to try. Come on!

Okay. Once. Yes, just once

You've got to turn around

and put your back up against the top.

Push off with your arms and legs, okay?

Go, go, go, go!

2, 3, go, go

Come on! God!

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

It's not your fault

Yeah, I don't know what what else to try.

It's just gonna keep comin' in

Don't say it! Don't you give up on me, Sean!

Don't give up on us Don't give up.

I got it. I got it

Oh, dear God

I'll be right back

Where is it?

Oh! Where is it?

What? The money!

You know what. Where is it?

I'm cashing it out now

I need the money!

This is as fast as it goes It's a process...

The police are on their way.

What did you do? I had to tell them, Jack

Obviously you're in some sort of trouble

You come here asking for money.

I said no police! They can help you!

What can I do?

You can help me by getting the money.

I need it now!

I need the money!

All right

I'll meet you in the parking lot

three minutes. I'll be there.

You look stressed, Jack

The cops are on their way.

What have I said about cops?

My banker called them. I didn't tell him anything

You're losing control of this thing, padre!

Put that thing away!

I've done everything you've asked!

I've played by the rules!

What would you have done if you had drugged me, Jack?

You never would have found them on your own!

I'll be right back

All there?

Thanks

I'll explain everything later I promise.

Let's go

Look, it's my money!

Whatever is going on I'm coming with you!

Garrison, you're crazy!

What are you doing here? Get out of here!

What is this guy doin' in this car?

Hey

Do you remember when we first met?

I hated you

I remember thinking

Lady Luck must be smiling down on me

because why else would a women like you

hang out with a joker like me

Are you afraid to die?

I thought I would be

Me too

I don't know, I just didn't feel 'On' tonight at all...

You did pretty good

I just think you need to do a better job

finding your moments Okay.

Hey. Great job Hey, thanks.

Catch a drink next week? Will do.

See you guys Bye.

Great work tonight Good night.

See you guys next week Next week.

You guys, um, stickin' around?

Can you lock up for me?

Uh, we can, we can lock up

Great job tonight. Thanks

So, I just realized we've, uh Never done it in the studio.

We haven't. You realize that?

Hmm?

Oh, hey! What's up?

I didn't know you were there

Uh, I'll walk you to your car.

Yeah. Thanks

Say that name again

You're certain?

No, I'm gonna call you back In ten minutes. Thank you.

I guess he met him off-site with the money.

They couldn't have gone too far.

No, his car's still here

I just got off the phone with the rental car company

that Samms mentioned to Garrison

Guess whose name is on the, uh, rental?

What?

You want me to say it?

Who? Sean Justice

When?

Yesterday morning

What the hell's goin' on here, Epperson?

I can't figure it out

Maybe somebody nabbed Justice then stole the car,

or they stole the credit card rented the car.

That doesn't make any sense

The database shows that Sean Justice

has a car in his name, so why would he need a rental?

You talked to his work?

Did

Uh, office drone

Well liked, never caused problems

They said he is, uh an actor,

takes acting classes at night

Which classes?

I don't know. I'll find out Do it.

Get out! Jack, do not slow down!

What? Get out, now!

I promise you at the count of three I will pull this trigger!

Do as he says, Garrison!

How do I get out? Get out of the car, Garrison!

He's got a gun pointed at your head! Go!

Get out of the car!

Shoot

Garrison's not answering

Get out of the car! I told you!

Get out!

What are you doing, Jack?

Get out! Get out!

Jack!

Garrison, stay away!

I'm sorry!

Hello? Garrison, Scott

Oh! Thank God!

Yeah, I was just thrown out of the car

I was almost killed

Are they still in sight?

Jack pushed the guy with the gun out of the car

and then he took off He left me here.

Is the gunman still there?

Yeah, uh, he's still here

Jack clocked him

He's just, not moving It's like...

What's your twenty? We're gonna come to you

What's a twenty?

Yes, Garrison, your location, your twenty.

Uh, I think it's around

We'll be right there

Oh, shit. Oh, shit

Hey, it's me

No, no, wait. Stop!

Something went wrong

No, look, he's got the money. He's got my car.

He's got my cell, he's got everything!

I don't know! It just happened, all right?

We'll fix this!

Come on, gentle, My Lord

Sleek o'er your rugged looks

Be bright and jovial among your guests tonight

So shall I, love

and so I pray, be you

Let your remembrance apply to Banquo.

Present him eminence, both with eye and tongue

Unsafe the while

that we must leave our honors In these pleasant streams...

And make our faces towards to our hearts

disguising what they are

You must leave this

Good job

Excellent!

That is exactly what we've been working towards

You have to play the unraveling of the individual characters,

yet you have a responsibility to work together

to bring their love to life

Breathe life into it

Wonderful. Excellent

Hello.

This is Jack Samms Who is this?

Mr. Samms, hi. My name is Sean

Where is my wife?

Is she there? Let me talk to her

Hold on Jack!

Rona! Where are you?

Help us! We're running out of time

Jack, there's water everywhere and we can't stop it.

Did you get the money he wants?

I have the money, but I got away from him

Help!

Jack, give him the money. He knows where we are!

Rona, Sweetheart Think.

What's around? What do you remember?

There's water everywhere! I'm gonna drown!

Jack, listen, okay? He buried us near the ocean

He buried us in the sand, and we're in a wooden box

Punched a hole in the top of it.

I know, I saw it

I saw it on the video in the computer.

How much time do we have?

I don't know. Maybe minutes

Just give him the money okay? I'll pay you back.

Whatever it takes

It's too late... We're running out of time

What do you remember?

I don't know.

He drugged us, I think. We were at my place

This box, it's big

It's got to be somewhere where people can't find it

Just give him the money!

I told you, we're out of time

I'm on my way to the beach

Stay on the phone

Just give him the money!

Uhhh

Where'd he go?

Look, pal I have had a bad day

I have been punched in my face

so you just

Listen, you finish that sentence,

I'll leave your ass right here with a brand new ass-kicking

Which way did he go?

Uh, down a side alley, there

He has my cellphone

All right, all right Settle down.

Did you get a good look at him?

Well, he was wearing... Sunglasses and a hood

The son of a bitch is wearing a disguise

How long ago we talking?

Five, ten minutes

Cell phone trace

There we go, Epperson, that's good detective work

Last number called in get a trace on it.

Let's find this asshole

find out what the hell is going on!

He's got my cellphone

We'll take it from here

What about me?

What?

You want a ride back to the bank?

Yeah. I don't think so

Bus stop, two blocks up

Huh?

I kind of agree with him

So, you think the phone's dead?

Come on, gentle, My Lord

Sleek o'er your rugged looks

Be bright and jovial among your guests tonight

So shall I, love

And so I pray.

Pick up, pick up, pick up!

Come on! Pick up!

Please!

Let your remembrance apply to Banquo.

Present him eminence, both with eye and tongue

Unsafe the while

that we must

that we must leave our honors in these pleasant streams,

and make our faces towards to our hearts

disguising what they are

You must leave this

I think both of you are ready.

Ready for what?

I have an idea for the ultimate performance

one that will serve a valuable purpose

a purpose for your... Situation

What situation?

Maybe I shouldn't say situation

It's more like your position

Yes, you see, I know that you two have been doing...

For lack of better words adult things.

Yet one of you is married... To a man with money, correct?

And I think both of you are fantastic at pretending

So just think of this as an exercise

with the highest of stakes

yet at the finish line

we stand to make a bit of money.

Who's up for a little fun?

Guys, it will be the performance of a lifetime

plus you will get what you want.

We can disappear together

The pre-nup will give you nothing if you leave him.

We could use the money to get started.

If your husband is the business man you say he is

he'll pay.

I'm confident he'll pay.

You'll be perfectly safe the entire time.

I will be in control of the situation.

I write the script

We rehearse it perfectly.

What do you say?

Hey Jack

By now you realize what has happened

I'm not a killer

and this is nothing personal

I see opportunities and I take them.

Your wife, she wanted another life,

and I could sense that

It took some convincing, I have to admit,

but once Sean was on board

he was very helpful in getting Rona to go along with it.

She's doing well, Jack, so if you have any love for her...

Well, then that should make you happy.

The money's getting her started in her new life,

and I did take a little fee for my services

Hey it was all a performance, Jack,

and you played your part well.

I'm proud of you for that

You almost broke my nose

but I won't hold it against you

I did put you in a situation and you responded.

You see, that's what I do, man

I put people in situations

Good bye, Jack

It was nice knowing you for a day.

But I called them

I talked to her

There was water

All an act

Hold on

Jack

Your wife, Sean Justice

Jack, they were waiting for your call.

We're assuming they knew the timing of the whole deal

just in case that phone rang

But the video?

Timed perfectly.

This guy is

He's a... Real pro

We did some digging

He's done this sort of thing before

Chicago, Atlanta, Milwaukee

All different cons with his signature on it

He profiles people in Sean and Rona's situation

And Rona went along with it

Just give him the money!

Jack, I know that's tough to hear

The marriage was already over

The upside is that Mr. Garrison

expressed that he will not press charges

Jack, here's what we've done

We put an APB out on your wife and Sean Justice

Here's what we're assuming

They're on the road, okay?

They've got to be using fake names

fake IDs, the whole deal

Listen to me

We will get them, Jack

So, the ringmaster?

Who knows?

Thanks

We'll be in touch

Thank you, Mr. Samms

So that's that, right?

Why not?

Or maybe I could pay it back

That's true. That's a good point

Hello, Rona

Have a seat

Or should I say Candace Burnett

Jack

Listen

Don't worry.

This isn't about the money.

This is about putting two people in a certain situation

to see how they react

Isn’t that right, Sean?

Oh, I'm sorry... Mark

Jack, this wasn't... Wasn't our idea, okay?

It was an experiment

That's all it was, you know?

It was acting

You guys, your marriage was over, you know?

Rona needed the money

You think this is all making me feel better?

Or even feel sorry for you?

How did you find us?

I made some friends

Guys that wanted to find you too.

Let me get to the point because the clock is already ticking.

In one minute, I'm going to make a phone call

The person on the other end of the line...

Is going to beg you to save his life.

If you save his life, you in turn save yours

If you don't make it to him in time,

you will be blamed for his murder.

I've already planted the evidence

Except this time... It's real evidence

The guys I'm working with will gladly hold it against you

along with your other charges, of course

Jack, please

Why should we believe you?

I guess you just have to take your chances.

Tick, tock, tick, tock tick, tock, tick, tock...

No! No! No! No! No!

No! No! No! No! No!
