I got it, yes.

Yes, I'm going to shoot

that kid in the face.

Yes, I am. Yes.

Come on.

Oh, come on.

Yes, yeah.

Come on, come on.

Yeah!

Got you.

Here goes nothing.

- Tom.

- Thank Christ.

Give me your cell phone.

- What... What's going on?

- Excuse me, do you have a cell phone?

- Tom.

- We have to call the cops.

- Tom!

- There's a guy on the floor with a gun.

He killed three people. Can

you hurry up and call 9-1-1?

You said I'd be safe!

Sh*t.

- Alan Z. Emmerich?

- Oh, God!

Please, don't.

One of your employees, Tom,

reprogrammed the cards.

Please tell me there's another

card reader on this floor.

I don't believe so, no.

Oh...

This lawyer has started to seriously

affect my ability to do my job.

He's just a paralegal.

Let him go, he's nobody.

Do not leave this office.

Who is she?

Lorraine Gambizzi.

Gambizzi's wife?

She was testifying

against her husband?

That's why he's here.

He must be one of Gambizzi's guys.

But if she's dead,

why isn't he leaving?

Maybe he is.

Doesn't sound like it.

What is he doing?

What does he want in the file room?

Well, he's not gonna

get in there that way.

That's reinforced steel and bulletproof

glass. That's impenetrable.

So the one room where we're safe is

the room where we can't get into.

It stopped.

Sh*t.

Tom?

Tom!

Look who I got.

Fernando.

See?

Tom, I just want to talk.

That's all, see.

I'm an employee.

Just like you, I've been hired

to do a job, and my boss isn't the

kind of man who accepts failure.

Don't try and be a hero, Tom.

Nobody else has to die.

If you bring me the pass card,

I promise,

I won't hurt Fernando.

If you don't...

I will decorate that

wall with his brains.

What's his nickname?

What's his nickname?

What do I call him?

The janitor!

He's already dead.

It's been fun, Tom.

What's that?

He's turning the elevators back on.

He's trying to trick us.

Come on.

Stay here.

You heard it too?

Jesus Christ.

What is it?

It's my number.

Oh, sh*t!

Go, go, go!

Sh*t. Sh*t.

Oh, God.

This is gonna hurt.

You ready?

Nice phone.

You really should protect

your phone with a PIN.

You wouldn't want

just anyone using it.

No!

Hey, hey, hey, leave her out of this.

You already killed the other witness,

why are you doing it?

Why are you still here?

I'm gonna go let her in.

You got everything you wanted,

why are you doing this?

Not everything.

Hey! Hey, come back here!

Hey, come back here

and listen to me!

You touch her, I'm gonna kill you.

Get back here!

Hey! Hey!

What are you doing?

- Don't go out there.

- I have to.

He's got Anna.

He'll kill you.

No, he won't.

I'm gonna give him

exactly what he wants.

Hi. I bet your name's Anna.

And who are you?

I'm the new guy,

and I'm having a

really bad first day.

What are you doing?

Give me your cell phone.

Please.

Thank you.

Let her go.

Oh, hello.

Let her go and I'll

give you what you want.

Tom!

Anna, baby, it's okay.

Everything is gonna be okay.

Just a friendly exchange.

Something you want for

something I want.

Aw, cute.

You've really thought this

through, haven't you?

Now, I don't like the way this is

going, all I gotta do is make a cut

and it's game over, you lose.

We both lose.

Except, one of us will be able

to live with the outcome,

and one of us will not.

I don't believe that's true.

Emmerich, what are

you doing? Emmerich.

- I'm taking a risk...

- Emmerich, I've got this.

as an act of good faith.

You've been trying to

get into our file room.

I think you have a job to do,

and you intend to see it through.

Am I right?

But I am confident that if you

were to put your gun down

then Tom would throw out that card.

Then both parties

would be confident in the good

faith of these negotiations.

Your turn.

Now, let her go.

That's not gonna work for me,

I want him to bring it to me.

- For God's sake, let's just get this done...

- No, Emmerich!

Emmerich, what are you doing?

Now, let her go.

Sorry, I'm renegotiating.

No!

Get up.

After you.

You shot me!

You might just live.

You're supposed to be the boss!

How hard is it to clear

out your own office?

Just get this done so I

can go to the hospital.

Come on.

Let him go, or I shoot.

You won't do that.

Yeah? Try me.

Anna, now!

What are you doing?

You can't go in there!

Go get that fire extinguisher.

- Oh, sh*t.

- Tom.

Yeah, give that to me. Stay back.

Tom!

Get off him!

Hey!

You got no clue who you're...

11-22.

Tom.

- You okay?

- Yeah, are you okay?

Yeah.

- I'll get the elevator started.

- Yeah.

I guess Harcourt's not

going to trial today, huh?

Holy sh*t.

This has nothing to

do with Gambizzi.

This is why he broke in the office.

Denning hired him

to destroy the Harcourt file.

- Tom...

- This is proof!

Denning knew that Prophidil could harm

people, and they released it anyway.

Tom, I need you to

call me an ambulance.

Okay.

11-22.

We have a situation.

Nobody was supposed to be up here.

Three, and the one we talked about.

It was you.

What, you were throwing

the case for Denning?

- The money was just a way out.

- A way out of what?

Think of this more as a settlement.

Oh, don't be so naive.

Every lawyer has a price, even you.

I'm not a lawyer.

You can be.

You can go wherever you want at

RBE, Tom. I will make sure of that.

Well, I want a raise. A big one!

And a corner office.

And then, I want to watch

when you tell Roger's wife and kids

that you had him murdered for money.

You f***.

It was supposed to be an electrical fire!

No one was supposed to get hurt!

Then why did he have a gun?

Why did he call you and say "Three,

and the one we talked about"?

"The one we talked about"?

That was Roger, wasn't it?

Roger found this, brought this

to you and you had him killed.

No, I am not a killer.

No, you just pay other

people to do it for you.

It's easier.

Shred that file.

You think the Mafia is scary?

Wait till you see what a multi-billion

dollar corporation will do.

Denning has people

everywhere, in every firm,

every police precinct,

every governmental agency.

If you don't shred that file,

they will come for you.

Why would they?

You fired me.

Remember?

I clocked out at 9:00.

Thanks to you, I couldn't

even swipe back up again.

Go.

Reported gunshots

fired, 34th floor.

- Hey.

- Tom!

Oh, my God. Are you okay?

Hi.

- Okay. We've gotta get out of here.

- Okay.

Hey, where's Emmerich?

Check the perimeter offices,

if you find anyone, detain them.

I'll get some backup.

What did you do with the file?

What I do best.

Morning, sir.

Morning, how are you doing today?

I'm gonna call in sick,

give me your cell phone.

If anybody asks,

- we were never here.

- Okay.

Yeah?

What does he look like?

Got him.
