Now is the ti...

Sh*t.

- Sara!

- Ohh!

Sara!

Get her out of the water!

Help me get her

out of the water!

Get her out of the water!

Ugh!

It's okay.

You're okay.

Aah!

I'll handle it.

I'll handle it.

I've got her.

Back the f*** off!

I'll handle it!

It's okay.

You're out of the water,

all right? You're out.

Aah!

All right.

You're out of the water.

- You're okay.

- What's her thing with water?

I think I lost my smokes.

Harris brought us

to this island.

Now we're not allowed to leave.

Let's talk about this Harris.

Harris wouldn't do this.

You can say what you want,

but Harris is a company man.

Did anyone actually see him

get back in that chopper?

Oh, tell me

somebody witnessed that.

Maybe he got tired

of the simulations.

Missed the taste

of the real thing.

I'll give him a taste

of the real thing.

Did he just pull

that gun out of his arse?

We weren't supposed to

bring weapons.

My gun goes where I go.

If you get shot sometime,

maybe you'll understand.

You shouldn't have brought

your weapon, Vince.

You're gonna be glad I did.

Two square miles at most.

Hey.

Check this out.

Who wants to play

some hide-and-seek?

Anyone else is on this island,

Harris or worse,

we're gonna find them.

How's about your Navy?

They don't muck around, do they?

Damn cats.

Aah! Aah!

Oh, for the love of God,

just take the arm.

There. There.

That's the Lucas I know.

You want to get up

and do it all over again.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

I told you I'm fine.

Yeah, you told me, but...

As long as people aren't

asking me if I'm all right,

I'm all right.

So can I ask you

something else, then?

Anything else.

Well, since the end

may be near here,

have you kind of always

sort of had a thing for me?

Aah!

Is that a no?

20 minutes of 12:00.

So at 12:
00

someone else is killed?

Somebody left those watches.

And left them

after Harris had gone.

Where is this killer?

We searched the island.

Somebody set that trap.

Somebody rigged that boat.

So what are we saying?

This is some kind of game?

Eeny, meeny, miney, mo.

Who's the next motherf***er

to go?

It's 12:
00.

It's 12:
00,

and we're still here!

We're still here,

and it's 12:
00, and...

Shut up, Vince.

All right. Look.

We know that there

is a killer on the island.

Someone who knows

what we're here for,

someone who knows where we'd be.

There's just one problem.

There's no one

on the island but us.

Now, hold on.

Real slow.

Real easy like.

Let's all move our hands

away from our weapons.

- You get on the ground.

- Lucas.

I'm checking the rooms.

I find this... by his bed.

It's maps of the island,

the building, everything here.

Been doing some research

on the place?

- I can goddamn explain.

- You can get on the ground!

This is a military facility!

No one has access to this stuff!

Whoa.

You got me all wrong.

Oh, yeah, Detective?

They your maps?

I want to see

your hands up. Up!

You believe me.

- No one leaves this room.

- Since when is this room safe?

Since we're all in it.

On your knees now.

Now! Down!

Sara, can you feel your face?

Because I can't feel

your face...

Coffee.

Huh?

There's something in the coffee.

Ohh!

Ohh.

Ohh!

Hey, Nic...

Stay... away from...

You going somewhere?

Come here.

Sit down.

- Hey, man, I can explain.

- Shut up.

- Listen, I can explain.

- I said shut up!

You don't know

what you're doing.

You don't know who I am.

I know you killed J.D.

That's what I know.

Is everybody all right?

Sara.

Hey. Hey.

Sara.

Sara? Hey.

I just had the worst dream ever.

Come on.

Look.

If I'm the killer,

why didn't I run?

You were all lying here.

How come so am I?

Maybe it's a trick so you

can finish what you started!

Look, I'll tell you why

the maps were in the bedroom.

No! You tell us

what you put in the coffee!

- That's what you tell us.

- Hey! Who made it?

Did I make the coffee?

Sherlock Holmes

over there made it.

The man is calling you a killer.

Personally, I think you might

want to defend yourself.

Aah! Aah! Aah!

Oh, f***!

Ohh!

Oh, f***!

There's...

There's no blood.

Somebody...

drained his blood.

6:
00.

Two watches.

Two watches means two victims?

We got 20 minutes.

All right.

Right. I want to know what

the next trap is.

And I want to know now.

I can't tell you

because I don't know!

You've been lying to us

since we got here.

That doesn't make me

the killer.

The dead people does.

How about the loner mentality?

How about the issues

with the FBI?

I'm not a cop.

I'm an investigator

with the Department of Justice.

I was sent to

investigate Harris.

The attorney general was hearing

rumors about his methods.

There was talk he was

pushing trainees too far.

The FBI investigates the FBI.

Not if you want it done right.

Look, they took him out

of the field for a reason.

Justice was talking

maybe that wasn't enough.

They sent me to see

how he works you.

The maps were prep.

It's a job!

Oh, this is not happening.

You want to hook me up to

a polygraph, hook me up!

Yeah, we know how to beat

a polygraph, too.

He's lying.

Watch his eyes.

I'm not lying.

I just don't like you.

Okay.

You got 15 minutes.

So tell us where the trap is,

or you never leave this room,

and I mean never.

Don't take your eyes off of him.

Okay.

Now, start talking.

It's a nine-number sequence

repeating itself.

Nine permutations.

What? A code?

A combination?

It has something to do

with time!

He has an obsession with time!

Forget the numbers.

We need to find the trap.

The numbers are the message.

What if it tells us

where the trap might be?

Fine. Bobby,

help her work the numbers.

I'm searching the building.

I'm searching with you.

10 minutes.

Phone number, Social Security

number, coordinates.

- Talk to me!

- Seven minutes.

Between you and me...

I'm not a violent person.

The thing I've learned

in my life is this.

Sometimes if you find yourself

feeling deep anger

and frustration

about where you find yourself,

what has happened to you...

The healthy thing to do

is to find an outlet

and let it all f***ing go.

6:
00.

One of us dies,

my outlet is you.

I am not your guy.

You don't want to do this, man.

You'll have to live

with what you don't know.

I think we're clear

on this level.

The obsession is time.

It has to do with time.

I know it.

5, 8, 2, 9, 9, 7, 9, 2, 4.

Whatisit?

Sara, it's no use.

8, 2, 9, 9, 7, 9, 2, 4, 5.

- What is that?

- Sara...

2, 9, 9, 7, 9...

It's a number!

It's a f***ing number!

They're all just

f***ing numbers!

7, 9, 2... 4, 5, 8... 2, 7, 9.

Anybody? Anyone?

What are we thinking here?

What about a rate?

When you factor in time,

an amount becomes a rate.

Or a speed!

Yes. What kind of speed

do you measure in the millions?

Atoms? Electrons?

How the hell should I know?

Light.

299 million...

792,458

meters per second.

This is the original

measurement for light!

And you know that?

It's the basic principle
