This is officer 11653.
Officer 11653, Philly P.D.,
reporting motor vehicle accident.
It's a late-model sedan
traveling southbound.
Location?
Approximately six miles
off the Cranston back roads.
Closest mile marker is 115.
Looks like the vehicle
was hit hard from the rear.
On the approach I see severe
back-end damage on the left-hand side.
No second vehicle, possible hit and run.
How many injured?
Checking for victims now.
Awaiting response,
officer 11653, awaiting response.
How many injured?
There's nobody here.
Your ribs are bruised.
You've been here for quite a few hours,
unconscious for most of them.
Where am I?
Where's my son?
Relax.
I just need to know one thing from you.
Where were you meeting
your husband on Wednesday?
What?
Don't...
Jamie, don't.
Someone help me!
No one can hear you
with the noise out there.
Even if someone could,
they're probably working for me.
We've reinforced the glass,
it's unbreakable.
We've removed your shoes and most of
your jewelry for your own protection.
Your finger was too swollen
Jamie, I know you're in pain.
We've given you morphine for your ribs.
In a moment, you won't feel a thing.
Who are you?
If you really don't know,
it'll be safer if I don't tell you.
Where were you meeting
your husband on Wednesday?
Do you remember the shower?
Where were you meeting
Kevin on Wednesday?
Airport.
Someone hit us.
You noticed we were following you.
You tried to lose us.
Did you have a flight number?
No.
Where's Michael?
Where's my son?
I'm sorry, Jamie.
I can't tell you without a flight number.
He's alive?
He's diabetic. He needs insulin.
We'll speak in the morning.
- Wait.
- You can barely move.
You're in no shape to talk.
If you cooperate tomorrow,
I'll tell you where Michael is.
- What are you doing?
Nice wedding ring.
- Do I know the lucky guy?
No.
Don't mess around.
Or the dog food will be
the least of your worries.
If you get thirsty, there's a leak
You help my boss tomorrow,
you'll get more than the pictures.
I don't think she was in on it.
She seems too fragile.
If she doesn't know anything,
she can still help us...
...but those tapes are the last resort.
We're questioning Taylor's partner.
We'll break him soon.
We have two weeks
before the Swiss arrive.
Plenty of time.
Falco, our bases are covered.
Did you get the pictures of Michael?
Yes.
We're giving him insulin.
His blood sugar level is stable.
How do I know he's alive?
Jamie, if you answer my questions,
I promise...
...you and Michael will get out of here.
I want to see my son.
After you talk.
Now.
You could be on your way home
in 10 minutes.
All I want to know is
where you and Michael...
...were flying to meet Kevin on Wednesday.
I told you, we weren't.
What are you doing?
Why were you driving to the airport?
To pick up Kevin,
he was coming in from Detroit.
Please stop. I'll say whatever you want.
You really have no idea
why we brought you here, do you?
I told you I didn't.
What do you want with my husband?
Jamie, this is going to be
hard for you to believe.
If you want to get out of here,
you better listen.
Your husband owes us money.
This is about a ransom?
We don't have any money.
Why do you think
I was driving a ten-year-old car?
Kevin is not who you think.
He never went to Detroit.
What are you talking about?
He works for us.
Look, I don't know who you are,
but you got the wrong guy.
I've been married to Kevin for six years.
We own a restaurant.
We just took out a third mortgage
to pay the bills.
I keep the books.
I see everything.
You made a mistake.
You must know that's possible.
Kevin Taylor.
Born December 1st, 1973.
Parents, Vera and Arthur.
Home address,
Owns the shitty
Italian restaurant on Main.
Gave his diabetic son, Michael,
a dog for his fifth birthday.
Fucks his wife, Jamie, twice a week.
Does that sound like your husband?
Two days ago, a major product transaction
took place at Kevin's restaurant.
- What product?
- Heroin.
Collected over nine months
for sale to a high-end buyer.
The deal was structured by my boss.
It involved the cash
from three other syndicates.
Each outfit sent their man to the deal.
Kevin was ours.
We found the others
with the backs of their heads blown off...
...in Kevin's wine cellar.
The buyer's account was emptied.
Now, we know that Kevin
transferred that money to...
...some temporary reserve somewhere.
We know he had a partner
in one of the other syndicates.
We managed to grab that partner
before he fled to the drop.
Now, he can't leave the country until he
finds a way to move that money untraced.
- How much do you think he took?
- 40 million.
I need that account, Jamie.
Are you married?
No.
If you were, how would you feel
if some sick f*** took your wife and child?
I'll see you in a day.
Mom!
Mommy!
Where are you?
Thank you.
Wait.
I need some...
...clean clothes.
You had an accident.
You were hurting me, I couldn't help it.
We'll run the shower for you,
I'll have some clean clothes put in.
Mom!
So, you're Taylor's old lady.
I'll be back when you're done.
What are you doing?
Nothing.
Get out of here.
Are you done?
- Yes.
Get dressed.
I don't want you to have
a problem with him.
Mommy!
Where are you?
Where are you?
Hey! Hey!
My name is Jamie Taylor.
I'm at Grifton Enterprises,
there's two men holding me...
...maybe my son.
Please help.
Comfortable?
Remember that before
you think about escaping again.
That tape wasn't recorded here.
I never said it was.
I heard a dog in the background.
What do you think, I'm stupid?
Graduated second in your class
at a top university...
...with a degree in computer science.
Had you pursued a master's...
...you'd probably be running
a software company by now.
But you decided to get married young,
have a baby.
Balance the books
on a struggling business.
Do I think you're stupid? No.
Maybe loyal. Maybe regretful.
Maybe guilty.
Where did you get that tape?
What tape? Like this one?
This one?
Have to go in tonight,
I'm interviewing a new chef.
Oh, yeah? What's he cooking?
Anything you want.
Your house has been bugged.
Everything from Michael
rehearsing his class play to...
Kevin whining about his debts, to you...
...paying bills, making calls.
You've been listening to us?
I listen to all my boss's employees.
Make sure they don't say anything
the feds can track.
For how long?
A situation's arisen.
My boss, Falco, had an appointment
two weeks from now...
...with a banker from a Swiss institution.
This banker's in the country
only once a year...
...and he's the only one who can
immaculately clean $40 million at once.
Now, his institution
holds our assets overseas.
And he was just informed that
My boss needs him to go back
as soon as possible...
...to protect our investments.
