Saw Page #2

---

watching through this peephole.

Looks like our friend Jigsaw likes to book

himself front row seats to his own sick little games.

He was there at the last one as well.

Only this time, he left us his penlight.

Get a rush on the prints.

Copy that.

Okay. This patient has an inoperable

frontal lobe tumor

extending across the midline.

Started as colon cancer.

The patient has come in

for a standard checkup

by which we are able to monitor the rate

at which his condition is declining.

The patient had...

His name is John, Dr. Gordon.

He's a very interesting person.

Thank you for that information, Zep.

As you can see, our orderlies

form very special bonds with the patients.

Continuing on, the patient...

Dr. Gordon, Dr. Lawrence Gordon, please page the operator.

Obviously, someone doesn't want me

to tell you what the patient has. Excuse me.

Dr. Gordon, I'm Detective Tapp...

this is Detective Sing, City Homicide.

Very impressive.

Oh. Thank you, I do my best.

Sorry to interrupt you while you're working.

That's fine.

Now, how can I help you gentlemen?

Are you able to tell us where you were

between the hours of 11:00 p.m.

And 1:
00 a.m. last night, Doctor?

Why is it that you're interested?

We'd like to ask you

a few questions about it.

For your sake, I think it's best

if we do it down at the station.

Would you like to follow us there?

No, I'm afraid that's...

that's quite out of the question.

I can't just leave, I have work to do.

Plus, my wife has the car today, so...

Oh, that's okay, you can ride with us. Doc.

I'm sorry, you'll have to tell me again.

What is this all about?

Is this yours, Doctor?

So you have no idea how your penlight

showed up at the murder scene?

Of course not!

I have to ask.

What were you doing last night?

I was seeing someone.

Who?

Look, if you can't be honest with me...

I was visiting someone. It wasn't a patient. Alright?

What am I gonna do?

Well, as your lawyer and your friend,

my advice to you is to bite the bullet

and give them your alibi now.

Because no one is going to

believe you later.

That was five months ago.

He tried to set me up for murder.

Okay. We checked your alibi. It holds up.

Good! Can I go home now?

We have one of the victims

who managed to escape.

Want to know if you wouldn't mind sticking

around and listening to her testimony?

Maybe it'll trigger something.

I'd like to help, really, but...

Well, we'd really appreciate it.

She's the only one who made it.

Okay.

Amanda...

in your own time,

tell me the first thing you remember.

I woke up. All I could taste was blood.

And metal.

Hello, Amanda.

You don't know me, but I know you.

I want to play a game.

Here's what happens if you lose.

The device you're wearing

is hooked into your upper and lower jaws.

When the timer at the back goes off,

your mouth will be

permanently ripped open.

Think of it like a reverse bear trap.

Here, I'll show you.

There is only one key to open the device.

It's in the stomach of your dead cellmate.

Look around, Amanda.

Know that I'm not lying.

You better hurry up.

Live or die. Make your choice.

And then I saw the body.

There was a knife.

He'd been injected with an opiate overdose.

He couldn't move or feel much of anything.

You mean... he was alive?

Was.

What happened after you took it off?

Congratulations. You are still alive.

Most people are so ungrateful to be alive.

But not you. Not anymore.

You are, in fact, a drug addict.

Isn't that right, Mandy?

Do you think that is why he picked you?

Are you grateful, Mandy?

He... helped me.

Are you sure it's him?

Yeah, I'm sure.

How do I know you're telling the truth?

You can be the one that put me in this room!

I'm in exactly the same situation you're in.

Wrong. Wrong!

You've got one thing I don't: Information!

You know who did this!

Now you either tell me

what is really going on

or I'll cut you with this, you hear me?

I'll cut-

What?

It's a two-way mirror.

I can see you...

So that's what this is. Reality TV.

Don't look at me. I can't help you.

Can you hear me in there? Huh?

I'm having a blast.

This is the most fun I've had

without lubricant.

Make sure you're getting everything.

That's not going to do anything.

You just want to leave it running on us?

Well, you won't stop it.

That's why we can't cut

through these chains.

It's why you won't break that glass.

Every possible angle

has been pre-thought out by him.

You sound like you admire this prick.

To overcome something, you have

to understand what a perfect engine it is.

That's how you fight disease.

Now the tape told us to find an "X."

That "X" has to be somewhere in this room.

Help me find it.

How can you be the calm Doctor Guy

when your wife and kid are out there.

He's got them, too. He could be doing

anything to them right now.

Are you thinking about that?

I AM thinking about that.

I've been thinking

about the last thing I said to my daughter.

Diana, Honey, are you okay?

Diana, Honey, can you hear me?

Mommy?

Oh, what is it, sweet pea?

There's a man in my room.

Oh Honey, are you sure

he's not just hiding in your imagination?

He talked to me.

Okay, I'll come and check your room.

I want Daddy.

He'll get the scary man.

Alright, if you want. Come on.

Larry, sorry to bother you,

but your daughter had a bad dream again.

Just a minute.

She wants you to check her room.

Mmm hmm, mmm hmm, just gotta finish this paragraph.

You know what sweetie? I'll go check with you.

Nope! I'm done.

See? There's no one in your room.

There's no such thing as the bad man.

Now can you go to sleep?

I'm still scared.

You are?

Give me your tootsy.

Oh, what a big tootsy.

Remember this one?

"This little piggy went to market,

this little piggy stayed home,

this little piggy had roast beef,

this little piggy had none,

and this little piggy went "Weeee!"

all the way home!

I hate that thing.

Well I have to go to work, sweetheart.

You know what Daddy's job is like.

Now, come on.

Let's see.

Try and get some sleep now, okay?

You're not going to leave us,

are you, Daddy?

What?

What are you talking about?

You mean, leave you and Mommy?

No, no sweetheart, I would never do that.

Who gave you that idea?

No one.

Well it's not true, okay?

Okay.

How much do I love you?

Love you very much.

That's right, that's right!

Good night, sweetie.

Good night, Daddy.

Tomorrow, I'll read you your favorite story.

Okay.

Okay.

I don't know how much longer I can do this, Larry.

What, what are you talking about?
