The Elevator: Three Minutes Can Change Your Life Page #2

---

Either way you lose a nail.

Those are the rules of the game.

This is not a game.

Answer!

I have no idea.

Answer!

Damn sh*t!

Oh my God! No...

No, no... Oh my God...

No!

Thats what happens. See?

Oh my God.

I hope this will make you consider -

the consequences of the questions.

Now, Im going to ask the question again

- and we are going to play for the nail,

of your other big toe.

Question # 2:

Which is the odd movie out?

Is it A:
Misery

B:
Diabolique

C:
Kill Bill

or D:
Million Dollar Baby?

Oh, you are insane, f*** you.

Ah, maybe I am.

Maybe Im, I was the nurse in this operation

Either way,

you should realise.

Come on, Jack.

You certainly know the answer.

I mean, a man with your knowledge of films.

You have the biggest DVD collection I have ever seen.

Youve ever seen?

Yeah sure,

Oh, I will have to give you back "The Big Lebowsky".

You were in my apartment?

Answer!

Wait!

Okay.

Okay.

All four movies

have female protagonists.

"Misery" is a horror film.

"Diabolique" and "Kill Bill"

are revenge dramas.

"Million Dollar Baby"

is a sports drama.

That's interesting.

But its not, not the genre,

No. No.

No, its the women.

You know they're all crazy. Yes?

Is that so?

Wait. Wait.

"Misery" and "Diabolique"

are too obvious.

"Kill Bill" is a, maybe some sick joke

Directed at me

- but I still,

I still dont know what the f*** you want!

Or what youre fighting for.

But I do know that if you wanted to kill me

You would have done it by now, so...

- maybe its about the money.

Is it the money?

It's "Million Dollar Baby".

Yes.

Is that your final answer?

Yes!

Yes, You b*tch!

Congratulations, Jack

Youre really good at this.

God!

Why?

Because although you got the question right....

- I am not for sale.

What is that? What are gonna do?

Do you think its poison?

You know, it might be,

Thats why ...

- I'm dying to find out .

Morphine kick starts.

Lower it now.

Take it easy.

Soon there will be no more pain.

So, what do we actually know about you Jack?

Apart from your massive DVD collection.

You have a mansion in Malibu.

Oh that mountain has seen some wild parties.

Right, Jack?

You're quite a party animal.

What can you tell me about Anna?

Who?

Not who? but what you did.

I didnt do anything.

Anna Sakowsky? A beautiful, young Polish girl.

It happened during one of your wild parties

The night something went wrong.

Yeah. Yeah.

I remember it.

Sure you do.

Blonde, hot and ready for anything and everything.....

- for her 15 minutes of fame.

But that night she went too far.

Had I known she was getting so much coke,

I would have stopped them.

But you didnt.

No, I didnt.

She locked herself in the bathroom

Some guy...

broke the door down.

Too late

I didnt know

She had used so much coke

And you saw her dying?

Was not my fault.

Why didnt you call an ambulance?

It was not my fault.

Why did you dump her outside

as though she was a dying dog?

You could have called a doctor.

You could have saved her life.

Why?

Because I was a coward.

I was more worried about my....

- my career.

And between your career and her life,

you chose your career.

Can I have some more morphine?

Its not time to relieve pain,

it's time to suffer.

Why are you doing this to me?

Naloxone, it blocks the opioid receptors

I need you to be alert.

Why are you doing this to me?

Because it's my game and I make the rules.

Tell me how much you want to let me go?

I told you, I'm not for sale.

Everybody has a price.

You do too.

You know, youre right, I do.

Why dont you tell me what it is?

Oh, you tell me.

Maybe I will.

My wallets in my jacket.

Well, I've have a better idea.

What are you doing?

PW-bank, right? You have a bank account number?

Tell me how much you want.

Bank account number please.

Bank account!

Account number.

Four, four, nine, nine,

nine, nine, four.

Okay, nine, four...

J, P, six, five, five, six.

Six, five, five, six.

Password?

Hello?

I cant remember.

Oh Come on Jack, make a little effort.

How can I remember a password

if you have been torturing me?

Then you are not going to help me?

Hmm, where were my forceps pliers?

In my phone.

The password is in my phone.

Oh, and where do I seek?

Find it yourself

Righto.

Oh my God,

You have a lot of celebrities here.

I love her.

Lets send her a message.

Keep up the good work.

Oh, and no, you do not have a fat ass,

Oops, I pressed send.

Pick, ivy, Northby.

What?

Pick, ivy, Northby.

Oh youre smart. Pick in bank.

Oh baby, you are rich.

Do you believe in the Declaration of Independence?

Because I do.

Especially the bit about the pursuit of happiness.

Whats wrong?

Shouldnt we call the emergency elevator number?

Nah...

Two million dollars.

Who did you give my money to?

Trust me, to a good cause.

If you get out of here alive then youll find out.

Hello? Anyone in there?

Hello?

Dont say a word.

No, baby.

I'm serious.

Shut up!

Serves you right!

Jack, who do you think you are, sending me messages like that?

Are you crazy?

Rachel! Rachel! Help me!

What? Are you sending more?

?

I'm trapped! Rachel!

You creep! I've had it with you!

Stay away from me

If you call me one more time then I will report you.

I will report you for harassment.

Jack! Jack!

And you picked the right answer. Well done!

Yes!

Now you can go to hell!

Well, well, well!

Damn a**hole.

For the next question I will be back in a couple of minutes.

Stay tuned.

How come the alarm turned off?

Somebody must have pushed it.
