(GRUNTING)

Jasmine! Glover!

F***ing b*tch!

(GROANS)

Jasmine!

Jasmine! Glover!

Glover!

Jasmine!

Glover!

Can you hear me?!

(PANTING):

Oh, oh.

I'm gonna get you out.

I'm gonna get you out.

Okay? Move back. Move back.

Mom!

(MECHANICAL THUMP, WHIRRING)

Mom!

I'm gonna get you out, okay?

Okay?

Jas! Glover, I love you!

I love you!

- JASMINE:
Mom!

- I love you, babe! I love you!

Okay? Okay?

PETER:

Stop right there!

B*tch!

(CAR ALARM CONTINUES BLARING)

EDDIE:

She's the old man's daughter.

That's bad f***ing luck.

Mom's. Found it in the garage.

She made two calls.

One was to the father,

the other was local.

- And Pete?

- I don't know. He should've been back by now.

- Did you call him?

- No. He doesn't have a phone.

Thinks the NSA is listening

to him or some sh*t.

- What do you want to do?

- Thought you said

- no one came up here without the old man.

- Yeah.

That's the information

I was given.

The information you were given?

I was banging the assistant.

It's not like I knew the guy.

You knew he stashed

$4 million cash in a safe

somewhere in this house.

Or are you not sure

about that, either?

How about we ask the kids?

You know where the safe is,

sweetheart?

SAM:
They never been up here.

I told you.

The old man didn't talk

to his family.

Clearly, you're

a f***ed-up tweaker

with inaccurate information,

so why don't you

- shut the f*** up.

- Enough. Enough!

(PANTING QUIETLY)

Come on, now.

I'm not gonna hurt ya.

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

(SCREAMS)

(GRUNTING)

- (SCREAMS)

- (GRUNTS)

(GRUNTING)

B*tch!

(SCREAMS)

(GASPING)

(SCREAMING)

- (GLASS CRACKLES)

- (PETER GROANS)

(PANTING)

Phone.

You have a phone?

EDDIE:

Situation has changed.

But the objective's the same.

We find the safe,

we get the money,

we get the f*** out.

What about them?

DUNCAN:

They seen our faces.

- That's a problem.

- What are you saying, man?

- That we should solve the problem.

- They're kids.

Jesus, Eddie, where the f***

did you find this guy?

I found him

the same place I found you,

doing three to five in county.

Only he wasn't on his knees

in a shower stall.

Look, this is

way beyond a break-in.

The minute we cut

those phone lines,

the clock started ticking.

If we don't get them

back online in 90 minutes,

the security company's

gonna call the police.

Yeah. You're right.

And Pete should've been

back by now.

Maybe we should bail.

Can we open the safe

without him?

No. We can't.

(ELECTRONIC CHIMING)

- What was that?

- The intercom.

Stay with the kids.

(ELECTRONIC CHIMING CONTINUES)

- (BEEP)

- (CHIMING STOPS)

Hello?

(OVER INTERCOM):

Hello?

Who is this?

SHAUN:

My name is Shaun Russell.

I don't care who you are or

what you're doing in my house.

Please just let my children go.

(WHISPERS):

Front gate.

(SIGHS) You weren't

supposed to be here, Shaun.

Sorry for that.

This has nothing to do

with you or your kids.

Then just let them go.

Okay? We'll just walk away.

No police.

No one will ever know.

I promise.

(SIGHS)

Can't do that, Shaun.

(CLICKS TONGUE)

But if you come back

to the house,

I will not hurt your family.

Then why'd your guy

try to kill me?

- Is he alive?

- I want to talk to my children.

I want to know

that they're okay.

(WHISPERS):
Not one word

about my guy, okay?

We're not gonna hurt your mom.

Just want to bring her back.

Mom?

Baby, are you okay?

Did they hurt you?

No.

Your brother?

He's okay.

(CRYING):

Mom, I want to go home.

I know. I know.

- Everything's gonna be okay.

- Mom! They're coming...

Wait, Jas!

Now... is my guy still alive?

SHAUN:

Yeah.

Good.

That's very good.

What do you want?

I want you to listen.

EDDIE:

Now, I imagine in this moment

you're questioning whether

or not you and your kids

will make it out of this alive.

The answer to that depends on

who I am, what I'm capable of.

You're thinking,

"If not me, then...

"at least my kids.

"At all costs,

get them back,

no matter what I have to do."

But you know

there is nothing you can do.

You are a woman, alone,

at the mercy of strangers.

Your greatest weakness

is trapped here

inside this house with us.

We will work this out,

I promise.

But from this moment on...

you are going to have to do

exactly what I say,

or you and your kids

will not survive this night.

Do you understand?

Do you understand me?

DUNCAN (OVER INTERCOM):

She's gone.

- What about Pete?

- I don't know.

There's a lot

of f***ing nature out here.

Find him.

Well, Duncan was right.

We do have ourselves a problem.

- What about the woman?

- The house is locked down.

She can't get within 15 feet

without setting off

- the security lights.

- So?

So, when she does,

we solve the problem.

Now, we're on the clock, okay?

Right now our priority

is to find that safe.

What if she goes

looking for help?

We have her kids.

She's not going anywhere.

Take the kids upstairs.

(MUFFLED GRUNT)

- (LOUD GRUNTING)

- Just calm down.

Calm down.

(PANTING)

I'm gonna remove the gag.

If you scream,

I put it back and walk away.

You understand?

(GRUNTS)

How many are there?

They're not gonna find you.

Not out here.

How much longer

you think you're gonna last?

So that's what you want to do?

You want to die tonight?

Help me. Please.

Four.

There's four of us.

What do you want?

A safe.

Somewhere in the house.

Are they gonna

kill my children?

I don't know.

Hey, listen to me.

I don't know you.

I don't know anything

about you.

But these guys,

they're for real.

(PANTING)

So... you let me go,

I'll take you back.

We'll figure something out.

Okay?

You got no other way

out of this.

(VEHICLE APPROACHING)

- Hey.

- You're right. You don't know sh*t about me.

(MUFFLED GRUNTING)

(GLOVER GRUNTS)

What the hell

is wrong with you?

(DOOR CLOSES)

Where's Mom?

Hi. It's Maggie.

Maggie.

EDDIE (OVER PHONE):

Let her go.

Get back to the house.

(WHISPERS):

Sh*t. Sh*t.

(MUSIC PLAYING OVER CAR STEREO)

Hoping

That we'll be

together soon...

Look. Somebody's here.

Is it the police?

- (TURNS OFF ENGINE)

- (MUSIC STOPS)

- (CAR DOOR OPENS)

- I don't think so.

(CHUCKLES):

Oh. Sorry.

Hi.

I'm looking for Shaun Russell.

I'm Maggie Harris,

the real estate agent.

EDDIE:

Right.

Uh, Shaun said you'd be coming.

She, um, ran into town

- to get some groceries.

- Oh.

Isn't that her car

in the driveway?

Yeah. She was having

some problems with it,

so I let her take mine.

I'm Mark, by the way.

I'm a friend from Chicago.

I just came to help out

with the move.

- Oh. She didn't mention...

- I'm sorry.

You want to come in?

You know, I don't want

to trouble you.

It's not any trouble at all.

I'm sure if she knew

you were here, she'd...

she'd come right back,

you know, for your sake.

- I'm sorry?

- It's just that you traveled all this way.
