wife and my son are.

- Sorry, sir we can't...

- Listen to me, the only person...

Sir, we can't give out

any patient's information

unless you're a police.

You should know that,

you're a doctor, right?

He'll never talk to the police.

The only person

he's gonna talk to is me.

Look, that's my wife,

that's my wife.

That's us,

that's my wife and my son.

That's my wife and my son.

That man is the only

person who knows

where my wife and my son are.

He's not gonna tell

the police anything.

I need his

information for myself.

- Sorry, sir.

- Please.

I can't do that.

Yes, you can.

I can't do that but I'm going

to step out for a minute, okay?

Dr. clergen,

we need your assistance.

Dr. clergen,

we need your assistance.

Please dial in at once.

"Miguel kaba."

I got you, you son of a b*tch.

I want you to wait here.

A man is going to come with me.

If you don't ask any questions

I'm gonna give you another $100.

Who's this?

I'm looking for Miguel.

Who's this?

I need a man with a boat.

I was told down in the

Marina by some guys

that he's good,

so I want to hire him.

Go away, go away now.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

Do not touch my daughter!

I just need to

know where Miguel is.

- I don't know! - I swear to you, I'm

not gonna hurt your child or you.

I just need to know,

where is Miguel?

I don't know,

I say I don't know!

I know he lives here!

- Get back!

- What about Jorge?

- I don't know.

- Where is Jorge?

I know you know Jorge,

where is he?

I don't know,

I don't know, I don't know!

Where is he? Where is he?

Gpc 9243.

Take me back there.

I don't know what

you're talking about.

Take me back there

right this f***ing second.

You kidnapped my

wife and my son!

F*** you.

- Take me back there!

- F*** you!

You're f***ing taking me back.

You have to take me back there.

Take me back to my family!

Take me back.

Let him go, now, now!

Papa.

Go back, go back!

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.

- Let her go!

- Put that thing down!

How does it feel?

Swear to god somebody's

gonna get hurt!

Put it down!

You put it down!

No, no!

I'm gonna f***ing kill you!

I'm gonna kill you.

It's a gruesome

scene at that house.

That was self-defense.

Listen to me,

I have the hull number.

That means we can locate Jorge.

Mr. Riley, you're responsible

for the murder of two people,

including a little girl.

- That was an accident.

- You're hereby

held into custody,

you held her at knife point

before slitting her

father's throat.

No, I... I didn't kill her,

I did not, I'm innocent.

You transferred a

large amount of money

and were implicated in a

double homicide after that.

The fisherman made

me transfer the money.

There's a boat sunk in the sea.

What do you...

What do you think I did?

You think I tried to fake

drown myself in a boat?

Well, it looks like

you were either involved

in a money laundering scheme,

or you paid the fisherman

to get rid of your family

and then you got rid of him.

I'm not talking to you anymore.

I'm not talking...

- I'm talking to him.

- Be my guest.

Listen, I got

the number for the boat.

You need to stop

talking right now.

All right, this no longer a

missing persons investigation.

This is now a homicide,

you need to get a lawyer.

- Gpc 9243.

- Are you listening to me?

That means we can get to Jorge,

- we can make him lead...

- Our office can prevent...

Forget Jorge, Mr. Riley,

the search has been called off.

- Okay, the search is over.

- What, why?

Why? Because you're

an American citizen

who is in custody and they

just think you murdered

two of their nationals,

that's why.

What are you gonna do, you gonna

leave them out there to die?!

It's not what I'm gonna do.

Mr. Riley,

there's nothing I can do.

They no longer believe

that your story is credible

so they are calling

off the search.

Okay, you got to understand that

this is a tourist nation, all right?

They rely heavily on tourists.

I don't give a f***!

Okay, listen the

last thing they want is

a media sh*t storm

that they think is started

by someone who they

consider a murderer.

All right, so just take my

advice...

What do you think I'm doing?

Why do you think I'm lying?

You have got to

keep your mouth shut!

What makes you think I'm lying?

No we went to a hotel,

we checked in,

my wife and son,

then we went on a ride...

- Mr. Riley, I'm trying to help you.

- And then the fisherman...

- I'm trying to help you.

- Left my wife and my son...

- There's nothing else that I can do

for you, listen. - To die, to die!

My hands are tied.

I'm trying to help and I am going to do...

- what if you're wrong? What if

you're wrong? - It doesn't matter.

- Mr. Riley listen to me. - You're

gonna have blood on your hands, man!

- Listen to me, you are under

investigation. - You're gonna have two

- innocent people.

- You're about to get

transferred, you are

gonna get transferred to a

secure facility where you will

receive medical treatment.

Just take him away, please.

Mr. Riley, Mr. Riley calm down.

Jesus Christ!

- Get back, get back.

- I got back.

Get back, uncuff me.

- Uncuff him.

- Get back!

Okay.

I did not kill that girl!

It was an accident!

And my wife and my son

are out there!

- I... Kevin, I believe you.

- No, you don't.

You follow me...

I'll shoot.

I'll shoot.

He's armed and dangerous.

Kevin!

All units on a high alert.

- Good morning, guys.

- Good morning.

I don't mean to be rude,

I'm just in a real hurry.

- Yes?

- Last night, I was out with a couple guys

and they told me they're

going shark fishing

and I've actually

never been before

and I kind of missed

them this morning

and I don't know

where their boat is.

So I kind of need to

know where it's docked.

I can't help you without a

last name and a hull number.

Miguel kaba is his name,

and he mentioned

that the hull number

was gpc 9243.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

Miguel kaba,

number c-four-four-zero-zero.

- Slip 37, compass king.

- How do I get there?

Oh, you have to

take the north ferry,

- it's about an hour from here.

- Thank you.

Wait.

Actually, the lease was

terminated on the slip yesterday.

Are you saying that

the boat isn't there?

That's right, man.

Sorry, but your fishing trip

might not happen after all.

You know you can rent a boat

from one of the locals

if you want.

Everything

is coming, I promise you.

We'll go over everything...

I'll be back in the

office in a couple hours.

United States embassy.

Yes, sir, yes, please hold.

- Sir, sir. - This guy is on an

island with limited recourse.

- Sir!

- Get his wife's credit card... what?

It's him, line two.

Mr. Riley.

Jorge has a cell phone.

Mr. Riley you have

got to understand...

The fisherman called Jorge

on his phone

when we left the bank.

Being on the run, you are making

your case infinitely harder.

Jorge definitely

has a cell phone,

so the only way

I'm gonna give myself up
