- The girl is safe.

- He's already hurt her enough!

He's right, Pierre.

Is there any doubt it's him?

Nobody in the world has

this kind of technology.

He's the only one capable of this.

That's true, but Nevada would

never have done something...

You always have

to wait until the end!

It will make sense in the end!

It always does!

What's that up there? Could it be...

Is that a cell phone?

Yes! It's her cell phone!

What are you doing now?

Jill? Jill? Can you hear me?

Behind you. In the bag.

Jill! Can you hear me?

It's me, the guy from before.

- You?

- Jill!

- We're gonna get you out of there.

- How?

- Just keep your voice down.

- I'm in the trunk. My hands are tied.

- We're following your car.

- Where is he taking me?

Jill, listen to me.

There's a knife in the bag.

What?

There's a knife in the bag. You can

reach your hand in there and take it out.

You might be able to

use it to cut the rope.

That's it.

A little to the left, Jill.

That's it. Can you feel the blade?

Yeah, I got it.

Sh*t, red light. Stay away from him.

- No, no, no, he should keep moving.

- No, he's going to see him.

- He's going to see him.

- No, don't worry.

- Listen to me. He won't see you.

- No, he must turn back.

Just listen to me.

He should act normal.

- He should keep moving.

- Nick! Turn back now!

I see police cars just east of there.

They keep coming.

What's he doing?

Why's he waiting there?

Sh*t! He saw me!

They saw you, Nick.

I can't divert them this time!

Oh, no, no, no!

We're losing him, we're losing him!

F***.

F***.

Those sirens... is that you?

Yeah, that's me.

Just give me a minute.

What are you doing, Jill?

There might be... a lever.

- Lever? What lever?

- The seats might be retractable.

- What did you say?

- Nothing.

Jill... what are you doing?

- I might be able to get to him.

- And do what?

- I have a knife.

- No, no, no. Don't do anything.

Stay where you are. Don't let

go of the knife, just stay there.

The sirens.

We're behind you.

We're almost caught up.

I don't hear the sirens anymore.

He's 3 blocks ahead. Keep going.

He's in front of you. You'll see

him any moment. Keep going straight.

That car straight ahead?

He's coming in the opposite direction.

Yes. Didn't I tell you?

- F***! No!

- It's on the map!

I know! Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!

- Jill, wait... listen.

- What?

We're right behind you. Can you hear

the sirens again? Can you hear them now?

- Yes.

- Then sit tight and wait!

Not in this trunk.

Nevada! It's me, Pierre!

With the Triops, in Paris!

- Nevada!

- I blocked him!

- What?

- I blocked him!

Unblock Nevada!

F***! F***! F***! F***! F***! F***!

Pierre! Where are you going?

Pierre! Pierre!

- Pierre!

- Hey, what's going on?

Pierre, where are you going?

Pierre, stop!

I have to help him! I have to help him!

I have to help Nevada!

What's going on?

What the f*** is... yeah, listen!

Listen...

Nevada, behind you!

No!

No, no, no, no!

No!

That is the call he... he made

back... back to us... that day.

But I don't understand.

Why is he hiding?

What the f***? Who is this?

What makes you think you

can contact me like this?

Nevada! Are you Nevada?

Yes, I am.

I just killed Nevada.

It may've looked simple enough,

but it was actually the hardest part.

All the servers are mine now.

Now I can make jillgoddardcaught.com

the most popular website of all time.

This is what I took.

And there's the rest of it.

There will be bigger fires, Jill.

Wait and see.

I'm sorry.

Jill...

Jill...

Jill... can you hear me?

Chord! Where's Jill?

Where she's always been.

- On the Internet.

- I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

- I'll do anything you say, OK?

- Please! Stop that music!

I'll do anything you say, OK?

- Take out the CD.

- I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

- Throw it away.

- I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

- I'll do anything you say, OK?

- Shitty music.

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

I'll do anything you say, OK?

Hello. Sorry, what you're

seeing isn't a stolen video.

This is not a recording.

The explosives you see

behind Jill Goddard

are programmed to

detonate in one minute.

Jill will not survive the blast.

The detonator is synchronized

with the counter on this website,

which you can see right here.

If more than half of you

who came to this website

looking for a stolen video

leave right now, she lives.

If you stay, she dies.

You have 10 seconds.

Yeah.

It's amazing.

You can watch it later.

I'm recording it. I've been

recording everything I've done.

This will be the final shot.

Years from now,

everybody will see it.

They'll know what I did for you.

Everything I've said was true.

The counter was real.

Do you want to know how

many people left the website?

How many feared for your life?

I'm sorry.

Not even 10% of the bastards.

There you have it.

That's the world

you're leaving behind.

By the way... sorry I

had to knock you out.

- I just...

- Leave behind?

What do you mean "leave behind"?

What are you doing?

No! Wait!

- It's OK. Calm down.

- Wait a minute.

Just wait!

Are you still recording?

Yeah.

Do you mind?

No, but...

Only 10%?

Only 10%.

I think I understand now.

There were plenty of other

ways to do this, but...

You wanted to open

my eyes, is that it?

None of this is new to you.

But I wanted you to see it.

Who are you?

How do you know so much about me?

I've been watching

you for a long time.

I know you better than anyone.

And I know what everybody

was doing to you.

When people see this,

I don't want them to

see me tied up like this.

I want them to see me walk out

of here on my own two feet.

No! No!

Listen to me, please!

Point the gun at me! Point it...

point it at me as I go in!

If you're careful...

people won't see the

gun in the video.

They'll think I chose to go in.

I've been tied up for too long.

I arranged for the fire to crush

the building in a few minutes.

Nobody will find us down there.

We'll be safe for a long time.

A very long time.

Is the gun down so no one can see it?

Yes.

OK, I can start again...

from over there.

And...

you stay there.

OK?

OK.

Actually...

come closer so you can see me better.

If you start at my feet...

and slowly move back up to my face...

when they see,

when they see how happy I am,

it'll be a surprise.

What a bunch of crap, Chord.

What? Who are you?

You know who I am.

Nevada?

Yes, I am.

It's pathetic enough that you went to

all this trouble to meet a movie star.

Now I can't let you screw

things up like this.

And don't even think about hanging up.
