I don't know.
You want to live, don't you?
What about the timer?
Must mean something.
I have no idea. I don't know
why we're here.
We're here because of your father.
Ms. Jenkins.
Please, this will only take a second.
We can help each other.
come to my door like this?
Because I found something
you'll want to see.
Go on.
Where did you get this?
It was at the location where John died.
Does it mean anything to you?
No.
Goodbye, Ms. Jenkins.
If you think of anything.
I want to thank you for
sponsoring this party, William,
And I know how much the clinic appreciates it.
John Kramer.
William Easton. Kramer.
You're Jill's husband, right?
I am.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Sounds like we're in
a similar business, John.
Oh, yeah? How's that?
Well, you try to predict people's behavior.
So do I.
People count on us for coverage,
and we have to analyze each person
for the probability of success.
How do you do that?
Well, it's a formula.
It's pretty complicated, actually,
but in essence...
it breaks down to monthly payments,
multiplied by lifespan,
minus the probability of illness,
and if its sum is positive,
we consider coverage.
Who devised that formula?
Me.
So, in a sense...
No, I, uh... No, I'd say I decide
which people have the potential
to live long, healthy lives.
But you're not taking into consideration
the most important human element of all.
Which is what?
The will to live.
Until a person is faced with death,
it's impossible to tell
whether they have what it takes to survive.
F*** that!
Sh*t!
Hello, William.
Standing on the platforms behind me
are two of your colleagues.
One is your file clerk:
A healthy man with no relatives or relations.
The other, a middle-aged woman
with a family history of diabetes.
According to your policy, your secretary is older,
and weaker, and therefore, less worthy to survive.
But you know the loss that
she will be to her family,
while young Allen will disappear
without a blip on the world's radar.
Only one can exit this room,
and the choice of whom falls upon you.
You must let go of the one to
save the life of the other.
As you can see, the choice is not so clear
when you're face-to-face with
the people whose blood will stain your hands.
Let the game begin.
Wait! Wait!
No! I won't do it! I won't do this!
I won't do this!
Help me!!
It's a business!
No! I'm not going to do it!
I'm not going to do it!
I'm not going to do it!
Stop it!!
Help me...please..
S..Stop it...
I'm sorry. I'm sorry...
Thank you. Thank you!
You try and find a way out of here, Addy.
I have to keep going. Be careful.
Why not throw acid on the bars
iron corrode?
With what they threw it on the bars?
With your hands?
What are you looking at?
Thought ...
Look at that mirror.
What?
Somebody's watching from behind the glass.
What do you want?
Why are you doing this?
Somebody help me, please.
Please help me.
Hello, Pamela.
You've sensationalized my life,
twisting the truth
and exploiting my message
for your benefit.
Hoffman.
It's Erickson.
We found the Seth Baxter tape.
Yeah?
we wanted to discuss with you.
What's that?
Better to talk about it in person.
It's, uh, time sensitive.
I'll be right there.
The device Timothy is strapped
to is my personal favorite.
I call it The Rack.
Last-minute tweaks?
Told you he'd f*** with it.
If you switch the gear ratio,
you have to change the gear
grease to match the increased friction.
Maybe you should stick to the heavy lifting.
You need five weight. It's in the gun.
Check with me next time.
How many next times are there gonna be?
However many there needs to be.
That's a human being.
Do you like how brutality feels, Mark?
Let's be honest.
You want him to suffer
just as much as I do.
So when's your test, detective?
I don't need one.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
Because I... didn't take my life for granted.
You're still dragging
your knuckles on the ground.
What do you know about life?
Get used to me,
cause I'm not going anywhere.
You sure about that?
Time is short.
You okay?
Now it's time to get
Dr. Denlon from the hospital.
Ok.
I'll take you back.
Go.
I'll be quick.
Why'd you come here?
John.
Please, stop.
Don't do this.
I promise you
when all this is done
I will provide a way out for you.
don't you that, time was now.
I have something for you.
What is it?
You will discover that in it's time ...
you know , what to do.
final decision.
I came to talk to you, Will, because
I've found a treatment for my cancer
that I think holds a lot of promise,
but my requests for coverage
have all been turned down.
So I was hoping that maybe
if I came and explained it to you,
that you might be able to get
that overturned for me.
Well, the buck starts here,
John,Fire away.
This is a doctor in Norway
He's got a 30-40%
success rate with gene therapy
He injects what he calls suicide genes
then any inactive form of a toxic
drug is administered and it...
Yes, I'm familiar with the therapy
you're talking about.
Right.
And a new trial's starting.
He's looking for new patients,
-and he seems to think that I'm the perfect candidate.
-John,
if your primary physician, Dr. Gordon,
thought you were a suitable candidate,
Dr. Gordon is a specialist, you know.
He's making money on his specialty.
He's not a thinker,I mean, the man has his hand on
the doorknob half the time that I'm there..
I'm going to be straight with you.
At your age, and with
the development of your cancer,
it's simply not feasible for your--
Wait, wait, wait.
What's unfeasible?
By whose mathematical
equation is this not feasible?
It's policy, John.
It's policy.
And if you go outside the system to seek out
this treatment, which has been deemed ineffective,
you will be in breach of policy
and dropped from coverage completely.
I'm sorry.
Did you know that in the Far East,
people pay their doctors when they're healthy.
When they're sick,
they don't have to pay.
So basically, they end up
paying for what they want,
not what they don't want.
We've got it all ass-backwards, here.
These politicians, they say the same thing,
over and over and over again.
Healthcare decisions should be made
by doctors and their patients,
not by the government.
Oh, now I know they're not made by doctors
and their patients or by the government.
They're made by the f***in' insurance companies.
Piranha.
John...
Please. If you do this,
