Take Me Page #2

it comes with strings attached?

Of course.

I don't scare easily.

It has to feel real.

That's what we're all about.

Case file 402.

Subject, Anna st. Blair.

Position,

senior business consultant,

Carnahan-cutler-Monroe,

los Angeles branch.

Subject has requested

a surprise scenario.

I've dusted off one of

my classic simulations.

The Schwinkie file.

You're gonna get us that file, ms.

St. Blair, one way or another.

It's a tale of corporate espionage,

where I play the brute enforcer,

She's the damsel in distress.

And Schwinkie, well,

That's for me to know

and her to find out.

All the pieces are in place.

She won't know when it's coming,

Or where.

Or how.

You have one new message.

I saw you in the elevator

this afternoon.

You didn't say anything.

Were you outside my house, too?

You really should be more

careful next time, ray.

Stop.

Eyes on the road, Anna.

Stay cool.

How do you know my name?

Light's green.

Are you...

Are you wearing a wig?

You have a green light.

Let's go, let's go.

- Would you like my car?

- No.

What do you want? I'm sure

we can work something out.

Just keep your hands at ten and

two just like in driver's ed.

- What's in there?

- Shut up.

- Is it meant for me?

- Shut up.

Okay. Hold still.

I don't think I can drive

with these things on my hands.

Sure you can.

You know, I'm supposed to be speaking

at a very important conference tonight.

If I'm not there,

people are gonna ask...

People are gonna ask questions

about where I am.

Shut up and drive.

Okay. Hold tight a sec.

I'll be right back.

You through?

There's nobody around,

nobody can hear you.

I'm gonna cut you free.

Don't make any

sudden movements, okay?

All right, let's go, come on.

Hop in.

No, no, no. I can't go in there.

I'm a Claustrophobe.

- Seriously?

- No, yeah. I'll go into shock.

- So...

- Turn around.

Turn around!

Listen, this isn't some ploy.

I've done absolutely everything that

you've asked me to do up until right now.

- Get in.

- Okay, okay.

- Okay.

- Watch your head.

Okay, okay.

Get your f***ing leg down!

I will f***ing slam this on you.

I'm not kidding,

I am not f***ing around!

- Why are you doing this?

- Shut up!

You're Anna st. Blair?

- That was a question.

- You told me to shut up!

Okay. Are you Anna st. Blair

or aren't you?

Yes.

- You are Anna st. Blair?

- Yes.

You work at Carnahan-cutler-Monroe,

the la branch?

What is this about?

My employer has taken an interest

in a certain client of yours,

A man by the name of Schwinkie.

"Schwinkie"?

Are you sure you're

pronouncing that correctly?

Listen, Anna,

This can either go

very smoothly for you

Or very difficult-ly.

What?

The Schwinkie file. Where is it?

Who is Schwinkie?

God damn it.

CCM doesn't represent anybody

by that name!

If I could help you with this, don't

you think I would've already?

Don't f*** with me, Anna!

You're gonna get us that file, ms.

St. Blair, one way or another.

I don't know

what you're talking about.

You can't just keep me

here like this.

People are gonna be

looking for me.

Which?

Come on.

- No.

- Lady, I don't ask twice.

That one.

Well, I hope you're more cooperative

tomorrow, for your own sake.

Hey, tom, it's ray.

I left a package at your place

last night.

Make sure you get to it

before Natalie does.

My name's not on it

or anything, but

It's in your mail.

You know, for the first time in a

long time I really feel like I'm

Heading down the right path,

like,

I don't know, everything's

the way it should be.

All right. Later, man.

You hungry?

I'm starving.

Well, you're in luck then.

I had a whole mess of chicken

fingers in here, two orders worth.

Ketchup?

Smells pretty good, doesn't it?

Okay, here it comes.

Before we dig into

our breakfast here,

I'm gonna need some answers.

I already told you

CCM doesn't have any clients

named Schwinkie.

Where is the file?

I don't know.

Where is the f***ing file, Anna?

Please don't yell at me!

One way or another,

I'm gonna get what I need.

These are very powerful people

we're talking about here.

This sh*t goes higher up the totem

pole than you could ever imagine.

You won't leave here alive unless

I have that file in my hands!

There must be some mistake.

There must be some sort

of misinformation.

I mean, you're very good

at your job.

I have a family.

And...

I have a dog.

He's a rescue dog,

he's such a good...

He's such a good dog.

I have plants.

I have plants, too.

But I am not who you think I am.

And I don't know

what it is you need from me.

So, please...

Please.

Please let me go.

I have to go make a call.

She's good. She's good.

She's a f***ing pro.

I'll give her that.

You got this.

You got this.

You got this!

Nice.

Listen,

I know you're scared.

But I'm just

the middle man here.

I don't want anyone

to have to suffer.

So I'm gonna be straight

with you.

In my line of work,

I've seen lots of things.

Terrible things.

These guys do not f*** around.

But I know that if you can

just work with me here,

Give me the materials

that I need

So that I can be able to say

that I did my job,

We'll both make it out

of this unscathed.

You have my word.

What?

I'm sorry.

Are you kidding me

with this sh*t?

You hold me at gun point

and you tie me up in your...

You tie me up in your basement

And then you invent

some bullshit excuse

- To try to connect?

- It's not bullshit.

And expect me to treat you

like you're...

Like you are my knight

in shining armor?

You don't even know

what you're talking about, okay?

You're treading

very dangerous waters here.

I remember you.

You're that guy in the elevator.

You were the guy that was

staring at my ass.

You...

My employers...

You don't even... You're in some

very serious sh*t here, Anna.

You have seriously underestimated

the amount of sh*t you're in.

You're gonna get me

that f***ing file!

Stop yelling in my face,

you f***ing pervert!

You spineless p*ssy.

You can't even...

How was that?

You hit like a girl.

You and I are gonna talk Schwinkie,

who I know is your f***ing client.

And I don't care how long it takes,

you're gonna give me exactly what I need.

And I don't care if your f***ing

plants, f***ing shrivel up and die!

They could die for all I care!

And don't think that I don't know

that you don't have a rescue dog.

Yeah, that's right, Anna.

I've been to your house.

And contrary to what

you might think,

I happen to be

exceptionally good at my job.

So you just better make

god damn sure

That that job doesn't involve me

cutting you into little f***ing pieces

And feeding you to that

fake-ass f***ing dog!

You can have the file!

- What'd you say?

- I'm hungry, I'm tired.

These cords are cutting off

my circulation, and, you know,

I probably need to pee again.

If you want Schwinkie that bad,

you can have him.

I'm really tired of this sh*t.

Really?

Yes.

You really know him?

Schwinkie?
