Home Invasion Page #5

What are you doing wasting time

talking to me, then? Get rid of him.

You better get that bloody thing open.

- MIKE:
Go.

- Okay. Front door.

Good.

Wait. Get into the reception right now.

Hide in the reception.

MAN [ON RADIO]:

We have no control over it all.

So whatever destiny that you think

or believe you have or have led...

Mike.

What do we do?

Don't move.

What the hell is this?

"MAN".

That's what's written in every script...

in every movie

and book to this day...

Hey, what's going on here?

What's the problem?

MIKE:

Chloe, I have some good news.

Sheriff is on his way.

He's almost there.

- We can't stay. They're gonna find us.

- Just sit tight. He's on his way.

MAN [ON RADIO]:
I want East Coast vets

using pills to kill the pain, I mean...

Not to worry.

The sheriff won't be coming

to dinner after all.

They want us to take an hour of lunch.

Talked that down to an hour...

You got 15 minutes.

- Chill out, man.

- Fifteen.

Ja...

Vicki, the boy just ran outside.

Do not let him get away,

all right, love?

Oh, my God.

I lost him, Mike. I lost Jacob.

I don't see him anywhere.

Where are you?

I'm in the wine cellar.

I've gotta go find him.

They're gonna find him.

No. Don't do that. Hold on.

If he's in danger, you need to be safe

so you can help him.

- Don't move...

- I'm gonna go find him.

I am his mother, okay?

These people are killers.

If they came here for me,

then they can kill me. I've gotta find him.

[WHIMPERS]

Chloe, stop.

You can't help him if you're dead.

Look, I know what you're feeling, okay?

I... I'm a father.

I know what it's like to feel helpless.

And I would do anything for my girl.

I would eat a bullet.

But, Chloe...

don't you take that bullet

unless it's going to save him.

- Please, Mike.

- Trust me.

I'm gonna help you.

You have to have faith in me.

I have faith in you.

I control this house now.

I will give you cover

and I will get you out of there alive.

I'll get you both out.

But you need to trust me.

Do you hear me?

[POWER SURGING]

Smart house.

Maybe the power surge

scrambled the system.

How long? Come on.

You know,

you really need to back off.

Okay?

HEFLIN:

You said this was gonna be easy.

"How hard could it possibly be?"

Those were your words, remember?

You do get this is all your fault, right?

Come again?

Wow, okay.

Let me walk you through it.

If you hadn't killed him...

Oh, my God.

ASTOR:

...we could have avoided this mess.

MacPherson thought

he could steal from me.

Oh, yeah?

He did steal from you.

[GRUNTING]

Mike?

Go ahead, big man.

Hm'?

Let's see how fast

you can open that safe.

Come on.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

You gonna let me do my job? Hm?

Twelve minutes.

Yeah, man, I hear you.

Oh, my God.

Talk to me, Chloe.

They killed him.

They killed David.

Oh, my God.

Who are these people, Mike?

Who are these people?

What do they want?

What do they want from me?

I don't know.

[III]

Come on, come on.

[JACOB GRUNTING]

Oh, sh*t.

What? Do they have him?

KNOX [ON RADIO]:

I've got the boy, Heflin.

[GRUNTS]

Oh, Ms. Paige?

Oh.

I've got a lovely little surprise for you,

Ms. Paige. Talk.

Mom? Mom?

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

We're all feeling a little bit tired,

so allow me to make this really simple.

You're going to show yourself.

If you do not, then I'm gonna put

an end to the MacPherson family line.

Is that understood?

Three seconds. That would be "one."

- Chloe, please don't go out there.

- I have to go out there.

If they see you, take you,

we got nothing. There's nothing I can do.

- God. Oh, God.

- Why don't we call that "three and a half"?

They'll kill you both.

We'll have nothing...

I'm here. I'm here. I'm here.

I'm here. Please don't hurt him.

Nice to finally make

your acquaintance, Chloe.

I believe you've already met

my associate.

- Please just let my son...

- Shut up.

You and I have some

very important business to attend to.

- Oh! God! Okay.

- After you.

Okay-

Open it.

I've never seen this before.

- This is your house, isn't it?

- I didn't know this was here.

Right. Well, now you know.

- So open it.

- I don't know how.

You really have no idea

about anything, do you, Ms. Paige?

Let's take your late,

beloved husband, David.

Where is he? Do you know?

Lake?

Have you ever given any thought

to how he's been able to provide you...

with this, uh, life of luxury?

Your designer clothes, expensive toys,

this wonderful smart-ass house?

Do you really think all this

high-tech security is for your safety?

Mom?

He's protecting something in that safe.

Something that belongs to me,

and I want it back.

- Do I make myself clear?

- Yeah.

What did he mean by "late"?

HEFLIN:
Daddy's gone.

With any luck, you might get

to say goodbye to your stepmom too.

Wouldn't that be nice?

I'm so sorry, baby.

They killed him.

It's a lie. They're just telling you that

to scare you.

Your daddy is dead!

Okay? Now, the safe!

[SOBBING] Okay.

I don't know anything about this.

Please, just...

Well, Astor has two numbers already.

Don't you, Astor?

Twenty-nine and four.

Twenty-nine and four.

Now, that has to mean something.

I know it's not your birthday

or anniversary.

I know it's not the day he proposed to you

at the Japanese garden south of 24th.

What am I missing?

Twenty-nine and four.

- Think!

- I don't know! I don't know.

Two, one. Key to the door. The day

Jacob was baptized at St. Thomas'.

Before your time, I guess.

Think. CHLOE:
Ah! Okay.

What don't I know?

Okay. Okay.

[SOBBING]

HEFLIN:
Maybe when you touch it,

you'll get a feel for it.

- Okay. I'm gonna try. I don't know.

- Give it your best shot.

Okay. Okay.

MAN:
Ninety-nine-point-nine percent of it

goes to them, one way or the other.

[SIRENS WAILING]

The bridge is open

and the bacon's riding up a real storm.

HEFLIN:
Slow them down.

Forget it.

There's too many of them.

I need the time, Xander.

Just buy it for me, all right?

I'll make it worth your while.

Hmm.

Aye. All right, then.

[III]

Yes, I'll let him know.

Mike, police are on their way

with extra units as backup.

- How long?

- Ten minutes.

She doesn't have 10.

We're running out of time, Ms. Paige.

'Open m - Ah!

[SIRENS APPROACHING]

[GRUNTS]

[GUNFIRE CONTINUES]

[GRUNTING]

[GROANS]

[GRUNTS]

I've tried everything I can think of.

Phone numbers, addresses.

I'm just guessing at this point.

To hell with this.

Come on. Move. Out of the way.

- Patience.

- She doesn't know anything.

- We got five minutes? I can crack it.

- Bullocks you can crack it.

You've had your chance.

She needs the motivation.

CHLOE! No.

Not the kid, for chrissake!

[GUNSHOT]

[EXHALES]

[PANTING]

I'd open the safe if I were you.

[SHRIEKS]

Twenty-nine and four.

- Now, open it!

- Okay.

Do it! Hurry up! Come on!

[ALARM WAILING]

[HEFLIN GROANS]

[JACOB GRUNTS]

[GRUNTING]

[RUSTLING]

[GRUNTING]

[GROANING]

Mike? Mike?

Mike, are you there?
