they don't get paid.

You're not the one they're

gonna come after next.

Kim.

Hey.

Can I get your keys, please?

Do you know what you're

getting yourself into, man?

Yeah. As a matter

of fact, I do.

Could I get your keys

and your phone, please?

You mind putting your

hands on the steering wheel?

Or what?

What are you gonna do? Shoot me?

Left or right?

Go ahead, put the cuffs on.

Thank you very much.

Dad!

Let's go, Kim.

What's going on?

We're keeping you safe.

Sam?

Hey, Kim. We're gonna

get in the truck.

Hi, Kim.

Let's go.

Bernard Harris.

He's a trained sniper.

Left the army at 24.

Nothing, nothing after that.

Nothing until he registers

as one of three founders

of something called Private

Securities International.

The other two being, Casey Mark,

Navy SEAL, eight years' service.

"Explosives expert."

It's right there.

Next time we hear

from him, he's 45

and Senior Vice President

of Private Securities

International.

Sam Grossman,

communications expert,

a wizard,

and he's the COO of Private

Securities International.

Now, our primary person

of interest...

Bryan Mills.

Is listed as an "employee"

of Private...

You get the picture.

These are very serious people.

If you don't

bring your A-game,

they're gonna run around you,

through you, under you.

I need it to stop right now.

There's one more thing.

This.

The Russian, he killed himself.

Probably because he didn't

wanna give up the information

that Mills was asking him for.

Because obviously,

he's not trying to kill you.

Obviously, he's not

trying to kill anybody.

He's only trying

to get information.

He's only trying to figure this out,

just like we are.

Except for the fact that

he is a step ahead of us.

I'd like to know the relationship

between the Russians

and the wife's murder.

One of these four people,

they know something about it.

They know the answer.

I need you guys to find them.

I need you to bring them in.

- Anything yet?

- No.

Nothing came up from the

samples you gave me.

But this is gonna take

a while to sort through.

Bryan, there's a shitload

of data here.

What is that?

I downloaded

the police computers.

For what? BRYAN:

The first thing they're gonna look at...

are the phone records to

see if there are any clues.

Mine and Lenore's.

What's it gonna tell you,

that you and Lenore

spoke to each other?

You know what?

Don't worry about it.

We're almost done here anyway.

So, what's the plan?

The plan is to make sure

my daughter is safe.

And the only way

to do that, so it seems...

is to eliminate the thing

that will make her unsafe.

Malankov.

Good one, Stuart.

I'd like to help.

Oh, you're

gonna help, all right.

Like bait helps

to catch a shark.

Excuse me?

Start talking about Malankov.

I want to know every detail.

Who he is, what he does,

where he lives...

where he works.

Oleg Malankov.

He's as tough as they come.

He served in the Russian Army

when they invaded Afghanistan.

He was Spetsnaz.

It's like our Navy SEALS.

After the collapse

of the Soviet Union,

when everyone was

grabbing what they could...

there was a real demand

for men with his kind of skills.

He became one of the grabbers.

I met him

when I was doing a deal

involving heavy machinery.

Since then, we did business

on a number

of different occasions.

Some deals worked out.

I don't have the money.

Last one didn't.

What?

My mom is dead because of one

of your shitty business deals?

No.

Kim, that's not what happened.

F*** you!

I'll f***ing kill you!

Kim.

We need him.

We need him.

Call him.

Why?

Because you're gonna

set him up for me.

Make the call. Now.

On speaker.

Pow.

Stuart. I've missed you.

I have your money.

You have it?

That was fast.

How can I trust you?

You can trust me.

Where do you want me

to bring it?

Meet me at the building

downtown.

In one hour.

Sure, one hour.

Scumbag!

Tell me how his security works.

Malankov works out

of his penthouse apartment.

He has a private elevator

with two bodyguards.

Malankov is coming.

Send the elevator.

The elevator is controlled

by security upstairs.

Once they see who's inside the

elevator and give the okay...

they will send the elevator up.

Outside the elevator,

upstairs...

is a security station

and three more bodyguards.

Two sets of doors.

Through the second set of doors

is Malankov's private apartment.

Can you help me out, here?

I got an address

but I don't have a name.

I got a back

full of perishables.

Go to the first floor

and ask for the desk.

First floor.

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

Hello, sir.

I'm here to see Oleg Malankov.

Okay, sir, have a good day.

Thanks.

Get out.

It's Dotzler.

Answer it. Act normal.

Don't try anything smart.

- Hello?

- Mr. St. John?

Frank Dotzler.

Where are you?

Um, I'm in a business meeting.

Is there anything wrong?

Bryan Mills removed your

stepdaughter from your home.

I'm there right now.

Oh, my God.

That's, um...

When are you coming home?

I'm leaving immediately.

It should take me about an hour

to get there from where I am.

Where exactly is that?

Malibu.

Listen, Inspector,

I don't think he means her any harm.

Mr. St. John, this man

is the prime suspect

in the murder of your wife.

His associates

held guns on my men

in the front of your home.

As far as I'm concerned,

he is dangerous

and has to be

taken into custody.

So, if you'd like,

I can send a car for you,

but I need you somewhere safe.

No, no, no.

It's fine.

I'm leaving right now.

I'll be waiting for you.

Get me a location

on St. John's phone.

As soon as he finds

out you're not in Malibu,

he'll be headed right here.

I'd say we have

less than 30 minutes to do

this before he shows up.

It's enough time for me.

Can you handle this, Kim?

What do I have to do?

Just keep me up to

date on what comes up.

Thanks, Sam.

Inspector, the tape you gave

us from that gas station...

here are the stills,

frame by frame.

Hey.

He lied to you

about where he was.

What a surprise.

He's downtown.

Let's call out the cavalry.

All right.

We're out of this location!

We're on the move!

Let's go!

They're gone.

Okay. Cops on the move.

Okay. Let's go.

You do exactly as you were told.

Don't improvise.

Try anything funny,

and they'll kill you.

And if they don't, I will.

I don't know how many times

I can say sorry.

Come here, Kim.

There.

Dotzler.

I found out something

you might wanna know.

Matching insurance policies

on St. John and his wife.

$12 million. Each.

How about that?

Stuart St. John.

Mr. Malankov's expecting me.

What's in the bag?

We're in.

Okay.

Stuart St. John is clear.

Unlock the elevator.

Okay.

Got him.

Go! All right.

What's going on?

Everything okay?

Mmm-hmm.

Call the elevator.

Get back to the truck.

Bingo.

Right on.

Mmm.

He's coming up.

Go, go, go.

Showtime. Bingo.

What the hell's going on?

Guys?

Go check it out.

Get up.

Get up!

Who are you, old man?
