The fact that I took some shots of you

or the fact that I took some shots

of you while you were cheating on your wife?

I did not cheat on her!!!

What do you care what I think anyway?

I don't give a crap if you covered yourself

in peanut butter

and had a 15-hooker gang bang!

How did I get here?

I had... I had everything in order.

My whole life was in perfect order.

Sweetheart, are you okay?

Mommy just needs you

to be really, really, really strong right now.

I'm not gonna let anybody hurt you.

You got that?

Okay, that's my good girl.

Hey, was there someone else

at your house last night

besides your wife and daughter?

No.

Well, there's someone here.

I know him. Zep!

His name is Zep.

He's an orderly at my hospital.

Zep. You perverted little psychopath.

I'm gonna take great pleasure

in seeing you pay for this!

You bastard f***!

Look.

We're out of time.

Mommy, help me.

Dr. Gordon's time is up.

Now I've gotta do what I've gotta do, and...

I'm afraid it has to be you

that tells him he failed.

Is that you Zep, you bastard!?

I know it's you, you son of a b*tch!

Larry?

Ally?

You failed.

Hello? Hello?

Don't move, stay on the ground.

Give me the phone.

Give it to me!

Larry?

Ally!

Honey, are you all right?

No!

No we're not... Get down!

Larry, where are you?

I don't know.

I'm being held captive in a room somewhere.

What? What are you talking about?

I'm so sorry, Ally.

Honey, we need you here.

I'm sorry for everything. It's my fault.

Please forgive me.

I've always been happy with you.

Mommy!

Ally!

Ally!

Mommy, help me!

Freeze!

What the f***?

Mrs. Gordon?

Diana?!

I'm gonna kill your husband now,

Mrs. Gordon.

Lawrence!

Lawrence, get up!

Lawrence! Get up!

I need you!

Oh, thank God! I thought you were dead!

He... he electrocuted me...

I told you!

The same thing happened to me, see?

I wasn't lying, see?

F*** THIS SH*T!!

No!!!!

Lawrence, calm down.

There must be a way out of this.

I can't be calm!

My family needs me!

No, God!

Lawrence, I have a family too!

I don't see them, that's my mistake.

It's a mistake I'd like to fix!

I'm gonna kill you you sick a**hole!

Lawrence, stop it!

Lawrence, please calm down!

There's a way out of here, there's a way out!

Lawrence! No! Oh my God!

What are you doing?!

What are you doing?!

What are you...

Oh my God! Oh my god!

Lawrence don't!

No! Lawrence, please, I'm begging you!

Lawrence, it's not me who did this to you!

You have to die.

No, I want to live!

I'm sorry...

I want to live!

My family...

I've done it!

Now show them to me!

Thank you very much, Officer.

Larry?

Did you get through to him?

There's still no answer.

It's all right. I've called the police.

Everything's okay.

You bastard! I'll f***ing kill you!

I'll f***ing kill you! You f***ing bastard!

I'll f***ing kill you! You f***ing bastard!

I'll f***ing kill you! I'll f***ing kill you!

You're too late.

Why?

It's the rules.

You're going to be all right.

You're just wounded in the shoulder.

I have to go and get help.

Don't leave me! No!

No!! No! No!

Lawrence! Lawrence!

Don't... don't worry, I'll bring someone back,

I promise.

Key... Key...

Hello Mr. Hindle.

or as they called you

around the hospital: Zep.

I want you to make a choice.

There's a slow-acting poison

coursing through your system

which only I have the antidote for.

Will you murder a mother and her child

to save yourself?

Dr. Gordon's time is up.

Mrs. Gordon?

Listen carefully, if you will. There are rules.

Why?

It's the rules.

The key to that chain is in the bathtub.

He's a very interesting person.

His name's John.

He has an inoperable frontal lobe tumor.

Sick from the disease

eating away at me inside.

Sounds like our friend Jigsaw.

Sick of people

who don't appreciate their blessings.

Looks like our guy likes to book

himself front row seats to his sick games.

Hello Mark,

Paul,

Amanda,

Zep,

Adam,

Dr. Gordon.

I want to play a game.

Most people are so ungrateful to be alive.

But not you. Not anymore.

Game over.

No! Don't!!!
