and they're robbin' my house.

- That's a f***in' lie.

Don't believe him.

- Everybody shut up!

You will talk only

when I say so.

Is that clear?

- Officer, you

gotta listen to me.

- Shut up.

Take these, cuff

yourselves to that post

right over there.

- What about him?

- He said shut up.

- You shut up.

- No, you shut up.

- Everybody shut up!

Let me take care

of him, all right?

Just do what I say.

- Look officer, you're

making a mistake, okay.

You need to cuff that

man up right now.

- All right, let

me see the cuffs.

Give 'em a tug.

Dispatch, I got a

situation over here.

- The jammer.

- Angie come back.

- Officer, you can't

get a call out,

because this man,

he has a jammer inside.

Look, we, we turned it off,

but he must have

turned it back on.

- Be quiet.

- What's a jammer?

I don't even have a phone.

- Son of a b*tch.

- All right.

Now he said that the two of you

we're trying to rob him.

Is that true?

- [Blair] No.

- [Ollie] Yes.

- Officer, yes, it's true.

We broke into his

house to rob him, okay,

but, he's been keeping

us against our will,

underground in a torture den.

- An underground torture den?

- There's a secret door.

If you look inside...

- Secret door?

- In the basement, a secret...

- Let me get this straight.

The two of you were

trying to rob the house

of some kind of serial killer?

This man?

- [Ollie] Yes!

- [Blair] Yes!

- Do I look like Sheriff

dumb dumb to you?

- [Blair] Yes.

- [Ollie] No.

- Oh no you didn't.

- Listen, it doesn't matter.

Arrest all of us, okay.

- Just take us with you.

Just get us out of here.

(screaming)

- Help me!

- Don't trust her!

- No, wait.

- They're with me.

They saved me.

It's him.

He's been keeping me

prisoner for weeks.

- You.

Get your face on the

ground right now.

- He's a psychopath.

He did things to me.

- I told you she's innocent.

- My God, are you all right?

C'mere, it's gonna be okay.

- [Vivian] Just take me away.

Oh God.

- [Sheriff] C'mere.

Angie.

Angie, I need backup right now.

- It's over, I can't

believe it's over.

Ow.

- Pick the lock.

- Why?

- Those videos that we saw,

who was holding the camera?

There was someone

else in the room.

- [Sheriff] Angie, I

need back up right now.

You copy?

Angie?

(ominous music)

- [Blair] Run!

(gunshots)

- Oh sh*t.

Other way, other way.

(gunshots)

Go, go go go.

Go.

Are you okay?

Are you with me?

- No, no no.

I'm okay.

- Oh sh*t.

Sh*t.

(ominous music)

- Don't go anywhere.

I'll be right back.

Bye.

(ominous music)

- I f***ing told

you she was evil.

(ominous music)

- [Ollie] Blair, we um,

we need to barricade the doors.

All right?

We need to barricade

the doors, we need to

buy some time.

All right?

We gotta keep moving.

Look, they're calculated

killers, okay.

Blair, look, if someone comes

looking for the sheriff...

They're gonna wanna make sure

there aren't any signs

that anything happened.

Okay?

So, that means that,

they're gonna have

to hide his body,

or hide his patrol car,

and hide our van.

Okay, so there's some time.

There's a little bit of time.

Okay?

Look, that wasn't

our last chance.

There's uh,

there's gotta be

another way out.

We could've missed something.

All right?

Look, here's the plan.

We're gonna...

Um, start a fire

in the kitchen,

and it'll distract them.

Then we'll run.

- There is no plan.

What are you gonna do with that?

- I don't know.

- I shouldn't have

borrowed that money.

- No, Blair, this

is not your fault.

Okay?

It's not.

All right.

Two kids come back

from Christmas break.

The first kid says

to the second kid,

I had the best Christmas ever.

Got a new XBOX with

every single game for it,

a new bicycle,

season tickets to my

favorite basketball team.

What did you get?

Second kid says, I

only got a sweater.

First kid says, why.

Second kid says...

It's because I don't

have cancer, Jimmy.

(laughing)

I know you're scared.

- No, it's...

Actually kind of funny.

(gentle music)

I'm pregnant.

- What?

- Oh my God.

I'm not.

I...

I just wanted to know what it

would feel like to say that.

That's why I wanted to retire.

Sorry.

- No, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry, Blair.

Look, I shouldn't a...

I shouldn't have pushed

us to do all those jobs.

I shouldn't have

gone back into that

f***ing house.

I should have put you first.

- [Vivian] Hello friends!

Are we having fun yet?

- Listen, this is what's

gonna happen, all right.

They're gonna come in,

I'm gonna lure them away,

you find a safe place to hide

until somebody gets here.

- I'm not leaving you.

- No, they're gonna

come for the sheriff,

so you gotta stay

alive until then.

- We have to stay together.

Please.

Please.

- You have to swear to me

that you'll run and hide, okay?

Swear to me.

It's the only way, Blair.

Blair, come on, you

know it's the only way.

(gentle music)

Okay.

- Okay.

- I love you, okay.

Get ready to run and hide.

Oh Jesus!

Get back.

- [Blair] Oh my God, Connor.

- [Connor] Ow.

- [Blair] Sorry.

- [Connor] Come on, hurry.

Go downstairs, go downstairs.

Hurry.

- [Ollie] Why are

we going downstairs?

- [Connor] I need to

show you something.

- [Ollie] We got

you, we got you.

Let's go, let's go.

- [Blair] How did you?

- I heard the buzz,

then I played dead.

- Played dead?

Of course you did.

Oh wait.

Connor, I...

(ominous music)

- Riley.

I'm so sorry.

Thought I'd say goodbye.

Hey.

I'm sorry, man.

You were the best

crew I've ever had.

Listen...

If I get out of here,

I swear to you,

I swear to you,

I'm gonna buy your

girl those b*obs.

I love you, bro.

- Oh, Connor.

No!

(screaming)

- [Ollie] It's all right, it's

all right, it's all right.

It's all right.

I should have told

you I tried that.

- All right, come on man.

We gotta move, we gotta move.

- What are we gonna do?

We gonna hide and wait it out?

- You gotta see this.

(ominous music)

Look at this.

This is how they're

separating us.

You can control the

doors from here.

Watch.

(ominous music)

- [Blair] There they are.

- [Connor] Yeah.

- They don't even

care we're down here.

- Yeah, but they don't know

that we know about this room.

Not yet.

Now look, I've...

I've been monitoring

surveillance, okay,

and I think I found a way out.

- Where?

- Okay, look at this.

Look at this.

You see that room right there?

Those are, those are

drainage ducts right there.

Now, it's a tight squeeze,

but I checked it out,

and I think you guys

can fit through it.

- What do you mean you guys?

- Look, I can hide.

I'll stay here.

I'm gonna slow you down.

- Connor.

- Look, it's the only

way to do this, Blair.

Okay.

You guys, you guys go out,

phone for help and then,

I'll hide down here and-

- We're not leaving you again.

- I would leave me.

- No, we're staying.

(ominous music)

How many people

have they killed?

If we leave, they get away,

and they'll kill again.

We can't live with that.
