No!

(EXCLAIMS)

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

(STRAINING)

No. No.

No!

No.

No. No.

Here's your key to freedom.

No. No.

No. No.

We could have been free, Anna.

I'm sorry.

(GROANS)

(GRUNTS)

(GASPS)

(COUGHING)

(GROANING)

Halloran.

Help! Somebody!

(GROANING)

Help!

What the f*** are these?

What the f***?

These are

goddamn laser cutters.

What? What?

Wait, wait, wait.

Wait, wait, wait.

Wait, what happened?

Where's Eleanor?

Halloran!

Someone came out of nowhere.

Drugged me. Knocked me out.

Yeah, me too.

JIGSAW:
(OVER PA)

Hello, gentlemen.

You came looking for the game.

Congratulations, you found it.

You are the final two players.

It can't be.

JIGSAW:

You may recognize the device

around your collar,

Dr. Nelson.

These laser cutters

slice through tissue,

and bone, like butter.

The most powerful blade

on the planet.

You both have

an opportunity to live.

All you need to do is confess.

Confess?

JIGSAW:
It's that easy.

If you admit to the reason

that you deserve to die,

you can escape death.

I will be listening.

Make your choice.

How are you alive?

How are you still alive?

The game

will select one of you

to begin in 60 seconds.

Unless, of course,

someone chooses to go first.

Let's neither of us

touch a button.

We're both gonna

be f***ed in a minute.

I'll go first.

Okay.

(EXHALES SHARPLY)

(BUZZER SOUNDS)

Wait! No, no, no, no!

No! No!

Oh, God.

I've done nothing wrong.

No, stop. Stop it!

Stop it!

I'd confess.

Yeah.

Okay, okay.

Okay, all right!

All right, John Kramer!

It was me!

It was me! I f***ed up!

I messed up your X-rays!

I was... I was careless.

And I am sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I confess.

I confess.

(SCREAMING)

Christine,

I'm so sorry,

baby.

I should have been

there for you,

but I wasn't.

(GURGLING)

JIGSAW:
(OVER PA)

Your turn, Detective.

No! No, no, no!

(BUZZER SOUNDS)

I won. I won. I won.

What? Huh?

Oh, sh*t!

Oh, sh*t.

JIGSAW:
Confess.

Okay.

I did some shitty things.

But the system's broken,

I tried to fix it!

Okay! Okay!

I tampered with evidence.

(STAMMERS) I took bribes.

I put innocent people away.

Murderers and rapists walked.

People died because of me.

Innocent people died

because of me. I did it!

(EXHALES)

(LAUGHING NERVOUSLY)

(EXHALES)

It f***ing can't be.

What?

Hey, hey, hey...

(PANTING) Wha...

What is this?

What are you...

HALLORAN:
What?

Are you f***ing kidding me?

Logan, you're... What?

What? Hey!

What, you...

You're working with him?

I am him.

What?

And with a little help

from you,

no one will ever suspect it.

HALLORAN:
(ON RECORDER)

People died because of me.

Innocent people died

because of me. I did it!

I don't understand.

Ten years ago,

in this very barn,

a game was played.

Supposedly, John Kramer

designed this for a game

that took place

before all the others.

(SCREAMING)

(SCREAMS)

(GRUNTS)

(GASPS)

The bodies were never found.

LOGAN:
I know this because

I was one of the players.

Jigsaw put me in that game

almost 10 years ago.

I mixed up his X-rays.

You need to cut yourself!

(LOGAN SCREAMS)

(GROANS)

(PANICKED BREATHING)

(PANTING)

John decided I shouldn't have

to die over an honest mistake.

He gave me a second chance.

So now, 10 years later,

I've recreated Jigsaw's game

with criminals from

your failed cases.

What?

LOGAN:
I wanted my game

to be identical to Jigsaw's.

So I went through your cases.

Found players just like

the ones in the original game.

I gave them the same choices

that Jigsaw did a decade ago.

Jigsaw put five people

in his game.

I put in three.

You and I are the last two.

I wanted to see if

I was as worthy as him.

As talented.

No...

Come on, Logan.

Come on. Have mercy.

Like you just had mercy

on me?

When you started

our game just now?

Pushing my button?

Saving yourself.

What?

That... that's not fair!

Fair?

Why was Edgar Munsen free?

He was a murderer.

But you were

protecting him

because he was

your criminal informant,

years ago,

and you let him walk free.

Edgar Munsen

killed my wife.

You don't...

You don't know that.

It's never been proven.

(PANTING)

This won't bring

your family back.

John Kramer,

gave people a chance

to win the game.

A choice.

F***!

You f***er.

You have a choice.

Scream, or don't.

Logan, Logan, Logan.

Logan, hey,

look, I can help you.

I can do things for you.

Can you bring

my wife back?

Doesn't matter

what I say, does it?

LOGAN:
I created a game that

appeared to be run by Jigsaw.

JIGSAW:
(ON RECORDER)

Hello, Edgar.

You're about to play a game.

Five lives are in your hands.

Follow my

instructions exactly.

I got to choose who dies,

them or me.

I'm not f***ing dying.

What kind of firearm

do you use?

Glock 22,

most cops do.

Except Halloran,

he's got a 17.

9x19 Parabellum.

That's a Glock 17.

The blood under

the fingernails of

our first victim

is John Kramer's blood.

LOGAN:

Some will think it's Jigsaw.

Some will suspect you.

But no one will suspect me.

Okay, we need to

bring him in. Now!

LOGAN:
Because Eleanor

will provide my alibi.

Oh, yes.

LOGAN:

Ten years ago, I came out

of the war a broken man.

Jigsaw put the pieces of

my life back together again.

He gave my life purpose.

(BLUBBERING)

We can never come

from anger

or from vengeance.

You taught me that.

But then there

will be no justice.

No.

But there will.

Because we'll speak

for the dead.

LOGAN:
Together,

we built a legacy.

Now, I speak for

the lives ruined

by people like you.

Murderers, rapists...

Their victims appeared

on my table

because of you.

No. No.

No...

No...

(GROANS)

I speak for the dead.
