Everything is alright?

What happened to your bag?

I lost it.

Here are your bows.

Get to the hour. I'll mess it up for you.

Buy...

Get to the hour.

Mrs Rubin? I'm Simon.

I am English in Korea.

I'll see your poster on the web.

- I know where Kobe is.

- Is he doing well?

Physically, he looks healthy and quick.

But he does not feel well.

He does not manage well here.

He does not understand the

hours and the others ignore-

- or bully him because

he is different.

Here is beautiful, but not for your son.

- They should get him home.

- I'm trying. How?

I cant say that.

His father is here.

Even now I'm involved

in kidnapping.

Well. Where can I find you?

Well. Where can I find you?

I can not give you my

number, but I'm calling.

Now be sweet to say where he is.

Where are you, Kobe?

- What should I use? Passport?

- Do not do it.

Perseverance, planning

and providence. Visa?

Only if you want to stay there.

You can get a nickname right away.

You are touristy.

But you need a passport to Kobe.

- Can not I get this?

- You need Kobe.

Then I'm getting to the embassy

on my way out of Korea.

- You may end up in captivity.

- I'm already in prison, Mark!

I will not be free

before Kobe is home.

Fine.

I am going aswell.

Now tell me. If you pick up Kobe-

- and get a passport

How do you get him to the plane?

Now tell me. If you pick up Kobe-

- and get a passport

How do you get him to the plane?

You will be called for.

The police are at the airport.

- You've never been there.

- They're looking for two.

- You've never been there.

- They're looking for two.

If we are three, the

odds are a bit better.

If we are three, the

odds are a bit better.

It's nice of you, but I've

barely won two tickets.

It is done.

Believe it, Tiffany.

I do not know what to say.

Be realistic now. Do you know how

many blacks there are in Korea?

- No.

- There are not quite a few.

You will distinguish

yourself from the crowd.

You do not know about Simon.

What if he is wrong?

- Or lying?

- Maybe not.

You could end up like the

journalists, Clinton, who liberated.

- In North Korea.

- If you're in prison...

You're not saving Clinton.

You'll never see Kobe again.

- Help me.

- She has decided.

- Help me.

- She has decided.

- Tiffany. Are you sure about this?

- I'm going to pick up my child in Korea.

Good, Tiffany. Now I understand you.

Yes, you can handle it.

Well. When Simon calls, we

will buy two tickets to Seoul.

- Three tickets.

- Thaw.

- Three.

- Thaw.

- I know you're angry.

- Yes.

- Should I leave alone?

- No.

You have to go with me.

You've shut me out.

That is not correct. We are married.

- Did you mean that?

- Yes.

Let me help you.

Let me help you.

When we got married, I thought the

problems with Jeff would disappear.

- But they did not.

- They got worse.

Yes. Because I did not

take him off at the start.

I should not have found excuses.

I do not want you

to think about it.

- Why?

- I thought it was too much.

And you would leave

me if it got too bad.

- I would never do that.

- I know.

- I want to go.

- No, Chris. You'll stay here.

Yes, Chris. Kobe is your son.

Yes, Chris. Kobe is your son.

If something happens to me, then

you should be here for him-

-and love him as you love me.

Now be seated. It is important to me.

- You will be back soon?

- Yes, I promise.

- Mrs Rubin?

- Simon.

- Mrs Rubin?

- Simon.

- I have not called them.

- No. I have.

Thank you for your short notice.

"Take the finest claws

and clothe him in them."

"Put a finger on your finger

and sandals on your feet."

"Let's celebrate with a party meal.

For my son was lost

this is found again."

Tiffany. You must know

that we are here with you.

We surround you and your

family with children.

We surround you and your

family with children.

We'll hold you until you

get Kobe back home.

Thank you, Pastor. Thank you, everybody.

SEOUL, SYDKOREA

We do not know yet.

Welcome to Korea.

We want two adjoining beings.

Tilstdende.

The door is open.

- Beautiful color.

- How are you?

- Beautiful color.

I've got the luxury suite.

I have two chairs.

- Give him a little more time.

Did you take the picture with?

Mrs Rubin? My name is Simon.

You must be Mark. I had to make

sure you did not get shaded.

Shall we go?

Is the hotel good enough?

It's close to school.

Kobes father can call out.

I have talked to his lads.

He takes Kobe out of school.

I have talked to his lads.

He takes Kobe out of school.

- When?

- Soon.

I'll act quickly.

Consider whether you want to do it.

It's not a crime now.

I'm sure.

Stay as much as possible.

- I have drawn a map of the school.

- Well.

Here we go.

The card shows that there

are only two ways.

The classroom is in the living room.

We take him by the way or by the hour.

The parents will be happy with

things the children have forgotten.

We have a few minutes, she reports

the teacher to the rector-

- calling the police.

The taxi rank is a couple

of cars from school.

We expect the police to be

notified in the meantime.

It's probably best that we

share our way up the road.

There is a shortcut through

the market that leads to me.

Old River Hotel.

- Old River Hotel.

- Not English.

Old River Hotel.

I take time for the valuation,

as we know how long it takes.

- Are you Kobe?

- I could not see him.

It rained and everyone had umbrellas.

Or Jeff knows that we are

here and keep him at home.

No, I just do not see him.

- How long have we got?

- The Embassy closes at. 11.00 Friday.

Just until Monday.

When we have him, we only have

three blocks to reach the embassy.

- They are waiting for us?

- No, if they knew it

- they must notify the police.

- But is he at school?

We can wait until Monday.

No, we are not waiting.

- What about luggage?

- It's me here.

We will get it on our way to the embassy.

This is your way through the market.

I'm going that way.

This is your way through the market.

I'm going that way.

- I'm stupid.

- No.

He has been going for five months.

Maybe he has lost his motherhood.

Maybe he has become higher.

Think if he forgot

our evening baby?

I get him, but how do

we get that time back?

You compensate for it with new memories.

Imagine if I come tomorrow

and Kobe will not see me?

Think if he wants to stay with his father?

Whatever happens tomorrow,

Kobe will know that you tried.

Come in.

That's it now.

- Jeff.

- Does he see you?
