Escape Plan 2: Hades Page #2

---

- What did you tell him?

What?

You gave up the first patent.

So? They were torturing me.

That one's nothing.

- He knew things about our background.

- I didn't tell him.

The second patent, what is it?

Advanced cube satellite tech.

It's a game changer.

It can override and control

any computer system in the world.

Like a cyber skeleton key.

And it's not what you think.

This isn't about money.

I patented it so I could bury it.

In the wrong hands, game over.

Defense systems, nuclear codes.

No one will be safe.

Kimbral.

No, no. Not every day is a fight day.

What are we doing here?

I'm his cousin.

I don't think it's a coincidence

that we both are here.

I think they're after Breslin.

You know, after spending

a lot of time with this,

I put my ear to the ground,

I just didn't like what I saw,

didn't like what I heard.

How long have you been here?

It's hard to say.

My best guess is... couple of months.

What is this place?

There's a lot of rumors,

like mythology.

It's called

the High Asset Detention Service.

Hades.

Greek mythology?

Land of the dead.

Whoever goes in just doesn't

come out. It's that simple.

- Sounds familiar.

- Yeah.

The word is the people behind the Tomb

took a beating, did some adjustments,

- and then came back strong.

- Who are these a**holes?

Spies, criminals,

businessmen, elected officials.

Profit. Big profit.

What makes you think he's there?

His cousin Yusheng was put on some

kind of hit list by his competition,

a satellite tech

company called Ruscho.

There's battle days

and there's truce days.

If you win a battle,

you get benefits.

If you lose or refuse to fight...

your time in here is

very uncomfortable.

That's why they call it "the zoo."

We're all animals here.

Survival of the fittest.

If you want someone to disappear

so bad, why not just kill them?

Because then the world

will know they are dead.

Here, they are just gone.

Then we got to go in, get them out.

Can't go in there blind.

We don't know a layout.

- We don't have anything.

- You broke the Tomb totally blind.

Yeah, well, I got lucky.

We don't even know for sure

if Shu's there.

- And what if he is?

- Look, if he's there, we'll get him.

We go in there blind,

we get trapped ourselves.

You don't think I can handle it.

This is bigger than any one of us.

All right.

Sir, we've got a data breach.

Someone's in our system.

What? Shut it down. Shut it down now.

- Uh-huh.

- Just cleaning up for the night.

Uh-huh.

Here's the only contact

I got at Ruscho.

Not sure if he'll talk to you,

but it's a good place to start.

A sticky note?

- So what do you got?

- All right.

Two things. A dark bank account,

code-named Sparrow,

Ruscho's been sending money to.

And they also sent ten million

to Leon Grassi,

a lobbyist

for the private prison industry.

I know this Leon Grassi.

He used to work for the prison board

for about 13 years,

and then he started

taking a lot of heat

every time I broke out

of one of his places,

so he decided to jump into

the private sector.

Haven't heard from him since.

You look very nice today,

but you know that.

Get you a drink?

Not what you got, Tiny.

I know you didn't go straight

and get an honest job pouring drinks,

so tell me, DeRosa,

what are you doing here?

Could easily ask you

the same question.

Yeah, well, that's personal.

Got a call from Abigail,

this being the first time

you're back in the field after

being a desk jockey for so long.

She thought you might

be a little rusty.

Oh, that hurts.

He's here.

- Know that guy as well?

- You mean the wannabe gangster? No.

You recognize him?

Want me to introduce you?

Since when are you so

tight with Abigail?

Like you said, it's personal.

How you doing, Leon?

Leon.

You know, one of my men is missing,

and I think he's in

a black-site prison called Hades.

Ring a bell anywhere?

And there's this company called Ruscho.

European satellite tech company.

They gave you about ten

million bucks. How about that?

Ten million dollars.

Lot of money.

But I think it's all bullshit.

Because you don't lobby

for satellite tech.

Look, Ray...

You lobby for black-site

prison profit, am I right?

- Look, Ray...

- You're gonna tell me what you know.

Move!

Hey, Breslin...

Good to be back?

No, it's bad to be back.

- Leon, who you working for?

- l'm sorry, Ray. I can't...

Come on. Want a job, DeRosa?

F***, yeah.

There's this private bank account,

and I need it identified.

With him dead, it's our only lead.

All right.

Give me a day, I'll figure it out.

Hey.

Where are you coming from?

I work for the prison. I'm the cook.

Tell me about the kitchen.

What do you mean?

How do I get there from your cell?

I- I got to go.

Yes.

You are on the wrong side

of the zoo, my friend.

- I need you to kick my ass.

- What? It's a truce day.

Come on.

What the hell are you up to?

Thought I could work the doctor,

get us some benefits.

Turns out the doctor is a lamp stand.

My name is Akala.

Shu.

- What?

- He connected the dots.

Your inside man at Ruscho

sent me down a rabbit hole.

But it looks like I found a guy

who can lead us to Shu.

Where is this guy?

Right now?

Driving the car I'm chasing.

Sure hope you know what you're doing.

Call you back.

Where you hiding?

Damn it!

F*** me.

Inmates 1764 and 1765,

report to the zoo.

I repeat, report to the zoo.

They tortured me again last night.

You were always

mentally tougher than me as a kid.

Remember?

You need to be now.

Begin battle.

Battle is over.

Inmates 1764, 1765, you've earned

two hours of sanctuary time.

Negative skeleton theory.

Use what they let you see

to map out what you can't see.

That's how the layout begins

to reveal itself to you.

Train your mind to look beyond

the physical wall that confines you.

There's a whole separate world

on the other side of the cells.

Hallways, interrogation,

infirmary, kitchen, HQ.

Right now, it's all negative space.

But not for long.

I'm gonna get us out of here.

F***.

Come on, Luke. Where are you?

This is the last number

Luke called on his cell.

Ruscho Geneva?

Should I get Hush in here?

No.

You know, someone once told me...

the single most important thing

to remember

in solving the hardest riddles

is that they're

designed to trick you.

Subvert against your own assumptions.

And my assumptions are telling me

that there's no way

that you would let Luke

go directly against company order.

Look,

he just wanted to do the legwork.

Thought it was a good chance for him

to take the lead on something.

And now Luke and Shu are missing.

You are prisoner 1924.

I repeat, you are prisoner 1924.

Welcome to Hades.

Sir, I felt something was going on.

I hacked into the system,

and basically, Luke tried to meet up

with Ruscho Geneva.

Are you serious?

I told him to stay away from these

guys. How'd he get involved with that?

It was me.

I gave him one of my contacts.
