- Full-on assault.

- Civilian casualties?

Inevitable in that scenario,

but manageable.

- Snipers?

- We're going to need two clean shots,

lined up from the air.

But it's going to be risky.

All right, start mapping out

the assault just in case.

In the meantime,

get our best guys in that chopper.

If they get a clean shot,

we take it.

- Roger that.

- You heard him. Let's move.

All right, Bauhaus!

You good?

You're working the hell

out of that vest.

All right, stay alert,

stay alive,

make note of anything useful.

And if you can,

get us a clean visual on the gunman.

Copy that.

No. Hell no.

Give 'em old man death and that

green-haired hooker back there.

Look, we give 'em the kid

and that woman,

they think we're reasonable,

they see it as a victory,

- it buys us more time.

- No.

If we keep the pregnant chick

and the kid,

it gives us more leverage

if sh*t goes bad.

We have one medical emergency

onboard already.

If that chick goes into labor,

they storm the bus,

hostages be damned.

All they're going to give a crap about

is saving that baby in time

for the 6:
00 news.

We're at the bridge!

Talk to me, Forbes.

You got your boys in position?

We have eyes on the prize, sir.

Bus is heading into position.

- This is all you, Bauhaus.

- Copy that.

- Bus has stopped.

- Bus has stopped.

Three people leaving the bus...

one suspect,

one woman and a kid.

You got a clear shot?

Negative, too many bogeys,

too many bogeys.

Come back around.

Suspect one by the fuel tank.

That's too risky.

May ignite.

So what's the big plan?

Maybe start a bus company and

go head-to-head with Greyhound.

Or you could turn yourself in and let

the rest of the people off the bus.

I can't do that yet, Kris.

Hopefully soon.

What about their families?

What about your family?

There's got to be someone

out there that cares about you.

I could find them,

bring them here.

I just need your name.

Good try, officer.

All right.

Well... well,

at least let me check out the hostages.

You keep putting the gas in the tank,

you can do whatever you want.

They're heading

into the bus, sir.

No visual on the second gunman.

What the f*** are you thinking,

bringing a cop on the bus?

Relax. She just wants to make

sure everybody is all right,

- we haven't hurt anybody.

- One of yours?

- Yeah.

- He needs medical attention.

- Let me take him out of here.

- You're not taking him anywhere.

You're going to get your ass

off the bus.

I always thought there

was nothing sexier

than a woman who fought back.

Make one more f***in' move.

D, if this b*tch shoots me,

kill her and everybody else

on this f***ing bus.

- You got it, pal.

- All right, Kris.

Tell your boss

that everybody's okay.

B*tch.

Sir, suspect one

and Officer Bauhaus

have exited the bus.

You got eyes on the other perp?

Negative, sir.

But we have a clean shot

at suspect one.

I don't know why you're doing this,

but let me help you.

Let me help you

with your problems.

You have no idea

what my problems are.

Come on! Let's get

the f*** out of here!

If you get a minute

and have a chance,

will you let me know

how the girl is?

Sir, should we take a shot?

- It's now or never, sir. I have him.

- Abort.

Abort, let him go.

Go for Marconi.

This is Officer Bauhaus.

- Well done, Bauhaus.

- What have you got for me?

...proceeding toward Texas.

Here you are.

There you go.

Enjoy.

Can I help...

You're a hard girl to find, Syd.

What are you doing here, Dad?

What? A father can't look

for his daughter?

And then find her

in some grimy shelter?

Missed you at the party.

I was busy.

- You know I'm leaving town?

- Good for you.

I'm not sure how long.

Need me to water your plants,

feed the cat?

I was hoping

to give you something.

This says you own

51% of the Swan.

Derrick will

run the whole thing.

You won't have to lift a finger.

The money will just be

in a trust,

with you

as the sole beneficiary.

You can't buy me.

I don't want your money.

- Sydney...

- Dad,

I know how this money is made.

Oh, come on, don't be so naive.

Nothing's that black and white.

This money's as clean

as the rest.

Oh, that's bullshit.

This empire you've carved out

for yourself...

- For you.

- For yourself,

it has a price.

It cost you your wife

and it cost you me.

Sydney, please,

just sign the paperwork.

- I just want you to have it.

- Why the urgency?

Why now?

What?

What's the trick?

There's no trick.

It's in my...

Are you dying?

It's in my lungs,

my blood, my bones.

Nothing they can do, so...

And you're leaving,

and you think this might be

the last time you see me.

You always were

a smart one, Syd.

Then you should hear this

before you walk out that door.

You want to give me your empire,

your beloved Swan?

That place, that boat,

that's been a cancer for me

and for Mom and for everything

good inside of you.

That's what you're going to be

leaving behind in this world.

That's your legacy.

If you love me,

if you ever really loved me,

you would take it and you would

burn it all to the ground.

You're not making

any sense, Syd.

- This is real...

- Love is built on sacrifice,

not dollars.

What can I do to fix it?

Oh, my God!

Joseph! Joseph!

So, are there any names you can remember?

Any details at all?

Um, yeah,

they kept calling the one guy,

the crazy one, Cox.

Cox? Did they mention

anything about a destination?

Maybe why they hijacked the bus?

I think they were being chased.

- Chased by who?

- I don't know.

Did you see anyone chasing them?

I didn't,

but they were running and sweaty,

and they kept looking

out the window.

So, I mean, I don't know.

Maybe I'm wrong.

- How's that?

- That's perfect.

- What do you think?

- It's pretty... it's pretty close.

I'll go run a search.

Thanks, Dan.

Listen, is this going

to take much longer?

There's just somewhere

I really need to be.

All right.

Well, yeah, we're done here.

We'll be in contact

if we need anything else.

So thank you for your time.

Of course.

Anything I can do to help.

Okay, bye.

Hello there, soldier boy.

- Is that your kid?

- Yup. Two tours, Iraq,

one Afghanistan.

He's a company commander now,

stationed in Italy.

That's a good assignment.

You serve?

I did,

a long time ago.

I thought they trained

you guys to be heroes.

Well, I seem to letting everyone

down in that department lately.

Everything's going to be okay.

I need you to keep breathing,

okay?

What's your name?

Rebecca.

Thank you.

- If I die...

- You're not going to die.

I just...

I'm sorry.

I'm gonna be right back.

Tom, apply pressure here.

So, um, where's my apology?

You got tits?

- No.

- Then go f*** yourself.

My name is Jason Cox.

My bill was slightly higher

than usual this month.

I believe my son has been using my

cell phone to call his girlfriend,

who unfortunately moved

to Texas.

Have there been

any outgoing calls to Texas
