from one coast to the other, but

they don't have the time to drive,

they use me.

I have the time. I drive.

It's a job.

It is?

Excuse me, if celebrity is a job,

so is driving another person's car.

I get why I was kidnapped.

You have a value,

and I don't?

I'm not saying that it's not

messed up, but the reality is...

Reality is without guys like me to

drive your cars, you'd be walking.

And if there wasn't guys

like me, there wouldn't be

anyone to pay guys

like you, would there?

You live in this little bubble

and you look down

on the people who

live in the real world.

You're so full of it.

What's it like,

living in a bubble?

Safe.

And I'm not...

full of it.

And I'm not...

full of it.

And I'm not...

full of it.

We figure this guy is using

sophisticated video equipment,

recorders, sh*t like that.

Run a check on all the IOcal chains

and look for large purchases

by repeat customers.

All right, listen, I buy it.

He's making a video, but what for?

Will you get this thing

outta my face? Come On.

He's using the video as a weapon

against her. What do we know so far?

He kills in April.

He leaves the ashes

of his last victim

next to his current victim.

Along with a quote on a tarot card.

Locked in ritual.

Poetry on tarot cards.

In English, in Greek.

He's not giving you guys

any clues. He's f***in' with you.

This type of killer

subconsciously wants to get caught.

That's the real reason

they go to the press, leave clues.

Our guy hasn't given us

anything concrete.

He's not ready.

Jesus Christ...

Unless you get lucky

or he screws up,

I'm afraid she's on her own.

Sorry.

He lights a candle.

We have a bottle of wine.

He's with me...

Holding me...

Warm clothes,

I'm not warm,

but I feel warm inside.

I feel him.

He brings the candle towards me.

The light... it gets brighter.

Brighter...

Help! Help me!

Help!

Don't you touch her!

You sick f***!

Help!

Help! Please!

No! Help!

No! Help!

Help!

You're okay. It's okay.

Jennifer...

Take a breath.

Count to 4.

Good, and count to4.

Motherf***er.

Keep breathing, okay.

I know.

Count to four. Keep breathing.

Keep counting, Jennifer.

Where are we?

Crawl space...

The ground floor of this house

is just above our heads, I think.

Come on.

Why do bad things happen

to good people, you ask?

That's the mystery, Mary!

That's the mystery.

Come on.

Battery's dead!

Pop the hood!

Fire it up!

Thank you.

Gary! Gary! Gary!

No!

No!

Damn it! No!

No! No!

What is this about, exactly?

I'd appreciate it if you'd wear

these gloves while you're in here.

It's a homicide investigation,

Mr. Dexter.

We got a lot of questions

we need answered. You understand?

Yeah, I grasp the basic concept

of the interview.

But you have to understand,

my records are confidential.

I'm very careful about that.

Leon!

Would you like to get them into

the truck before next Thursday?

Mr. Dexter. I want you to know

that I appreciate your position,

so let me tell you

how it's going to be.

You're going to call your lawyer and

I'm going to throw handcuffs on you.

We're going to go downtown, and have

a little get together down there.

Let me cuff this guy.

Barnett Freel has a criminal record,

according to his W2's, state taxes,

he works for you. When was

the last time you've seen him?

Barnett Freel...

Last in on... Tuesday.

Tuesday, you catered

Club Shine on Tuesday.

He work that event?

Yes, he would have left

after 1 AM. Big event.

Correct me if I'm wrong but you pay

this guy Freel $1,200 a month.

So how is it that he spends

over $3,600 a month

On sophisticated

electronics equipment?

We live in an age of plastic?

What can I tell ya?

You got a current address on him?

Oh, it's Brooklyn Heights someplace,

let me check.

Thank you.

We're not getting

out of here, are we?

There's always a way out.

We just have to think

like him. Anticipate...

The way he anticipated us?

The wall's bullshit.

He's made it impossible

to get out of here,

but we can get through the vents,

I find the nail file,

the car...

He's playing with us.

Showing his power.

We're still alive,

and as long as

we're still alive

we got to have hope.

- What for?

- You're not alone.

Please, who isn't alone?

I was alone when I was a kid,

I ran away from home 'cause I was

alone. And that's the way it works.

Leave him alone!

I can't do this.

Imagine him with you.

Who?

Your lover.

I don't have one.

The one in your head.

He's with you.

He makes you feel safe.

How?

He lights a candle.

He wants you to be close to him.

You feel his touch.

Yes.

You feel his touch.

Now what does he do?

He comes closer.

You bring him closer.

And your eyes are shut

but you can see the light.

It's part of you.

In your fingers, strengthens you.

And the light is for real.

Yes.

All that you can see is flame.

You're not alone.

You are in the light.

And you have no fear.

You're not alone.

F***er!

F***er!

F***!

When the doors open,

we didn't move.

I wanted to.

Yes.

I was afraid

that you weren't real.

What's real?

What you can touch.

Key number 4.

This is it.

Don't.

Gary!

Come here!

What's real? Tell me again.

What you can touch.

Sick motherfucking freak!

You don't think I know!

- Gary!

- Come on.

Don't!

I'm sorry!

I'm sorry!

No! Don't kill him!

What do you want to hear!

Tell me what you want to hear!

Don't kill him!

Are you going to kill me?

Gary!

Gary!

- Gary?

- Jennifer...

Oh, thank God.

You begged for my life.

I felt like

I was paying for mine.

I can't stop staring at you.

I guess you get that

a lot though, huh?

Can't stop touching you.

Me neither.

Sh*t.

Do you believe this sh*t?

Yeah, hey, Susan.

We're at 1780 Carson.

And unless this guy lives in a

crate, we're at a bullshit address.

Sh*t?

Hey, look at this.

Hey, we got a great f***in' view!

It's a great view!

So this is what

we're going to do...

Jennifer. Jen...

I'm tired.

Up on your feet.

I feel like I did 30 shots of Stoli.

Jennifer, talk to me.

I can't, just let me sleep.

Jenny, come on. Jennifer.

Can you hear me?

That f***er.

Oh, God...

Jennifer.

Was it good?

One of the best.

I thought you were going

to wait till morning.

Have another night of hero sex.

- Don't you ever want to be the one?

- The one?

Experiencing it?

I do.

Always.

You're inside her,

I'm inside her.

Doesn't it ever get

predictable for you?

That's the point, predicting it.

I said it would be the fourth day.

It's the fourth day.

She worships you.

What if I don't want

to end this one?

You know the drill.

Last one didn't even last 3 days.

It's not like we've gotten

anything written in stone.

Hey, look at me.

No, no, look at me.

We do this now, while she's still

a smile on your little face.

Ben, I don't know about this girl.

I feel like

this could be the one...

You stop playing the game

before it starts playing you.

What do I always tell you?

- Play them...
