...apparent hostage situation is unfolding.
Well, Jim, details are still a bit incomplete
right now, but here's what we know so far.
Earlier today, a police officer
was shot and killed while in...
Hey, How you doing? It's me,
You guys almost home?
Actually, we're still at your place.
After you left, Amanda and I,
we had another fight,
She turned on the TV.
We've been watching it all.
Well...
I turned it over to County,
so I'm not there anymore,
Look, I know you're busy,
but can you stop by for a little bit?
I think I can, yeah,
I have to go by Carol's,
She had a kid,
It's not your fault she's dead, Jeff.
You know?
It's not your fault.
Yeah,
- So, what was the argument about?
- Oh, you know. What it's always about.
She's afraid we're gonna get divorced,
What do you think, Jane?
You think we're gonna get divorced?
- No.
- Good, Me neither,
- So, I'll see you in a minute,
- OK.
- Say hi to Amanda,
- I will.
- OK,
- I love you.
Whoo!
Drive,
I know you're scared, but as long as
you don't do anything stupid,
we're not gonna hurt you,
Do you understand?
What do you want?
I want you to put your hands
on the roof of the car,
Pardon me,
Now, would you mind putting your left
hand through the steering wheel, please?
Now bring me the right,
Good,
Good,
Now the guy behind you
is gonna take hold of you,
Don't struggle, It's for your own good,
Please,
Eyes in the rearview mirror, Now,
- Daddy!
- Jane! Amanda!
I know, I know, I know,
But at least they're still alive,
From this point on,
you control what happens to them,
Can we let you go?
Can you be calm?
Good, Good,
Now, listen to me, I want you
to go back to Walter Smith's house,
There's a DVD inside Walter Smith's
house that belongs to me,
I'm no longer in command,
You are going to reassume command
until my people arrive to finish the job,
You're not gonna let anyone
go into the house or anything come out,
Are you with me so far?
How am I gonna do that?
You... are the famous Jeff Talley,
Ten years SWAT,
seven years prime hostage negotiator,
You'll figure it out,
it'll be me with further instructions,
If you deviate from the plan one little bit,
I will kill your wife,
And then I will kill your child,
But when I have what I want,
you get your family back,
Here,
Now, you wait until our van is gone
before you uncuff yourself,
Let's bring this home, Talley,
- Yeah?
- We have a boy on the line.
And he says he's Tommy Smith.
I was gonna turn him over to the Sheriff's,
but he says he saw you on TV
and he wants to speak with you,
- All right, Louise. Put him on.
- Hold on,
- You're the man on TV?
- Yes, Tommy, this is the man on TV,
The guy called Dennis hit my dad,
and now he's...
Slow down, slow down, slow down,
Slow down, Tommy, Slow down,
I'm really, really scared,
and you gotta help us.
Slow down and take it easy,
Was your dad shot?
Dennis hit him
a bunch of times with his gun.
- He hit my dad.
- Tommy, Tommy, Tommy!
- He needs a doctor.
- Try and talk quietly, OK?
- Just take it easy,
- OK.
All right,
Are you in a safe place?
I'm in my bedroom.
They think I'm tied up, but I got free.
Wait, Tommy,
How do you know they can't hear you?
'Cause I can see them
on the security channel.
Tell me everything you can see on the TV,
I see Dennis,
I see Kevin,
I see trees,
I see army men.
I see... the Mars guy...
Wait, Tommy.
Tell me about Mars,
- Captain Shoemaker?
- Get me an aerial shot ASAP,
This is Shoemaker,
They're watching you
on the outside cameras.
Chief Talley?
are watching you,
- They're watching every move you make,
- Where did you get this information?
If I were you I'd be thinking about
what to do with that information,
Mikey, Yeah, it's me, Listen to me,
