This could be

some new f***ing law,

some new government

f***ing program?

And what you're saying

is that we're f***ed?

That's what you just said.

You basically

just said we're f***ed.

Yeah man.

There has to be more to it.

I'm a lawyer, I'm telling you,

there's always more things

to it than you think.

You're saying he lied?

No.

He just didn't say it all.

You know

if you're right Victoria,

if there is some

glimmer of humanity

or mercy

in this hideous program,

that there is more to it

than we know.

I don't know.

Look,

what if we unanimously

choose each other?

Five votes, five times,

and on each vote

we are unanimous.

Okay now I don't get it.

That won't work.

I'm just using this

as an example Arnold.

Remember, he didn't give

us any rules to go by.

There are no guidelines.

We tell them

we are unanimous five times

and he has to let us all go.

He don't have to do nothing.

If this really

is a government program

then we do have rights.

One is the right

to convene as a jury

for a specific goal.

And we also have the right

to speak freely

to one another and to them

as we've already seen.

That means to some extent

we can make a defense!

They're listening.

Come on, let's fight back.

I still say

that we take a vote

and really choose someone.

Based on what Arnold?

How about how we really

feel about each other?

That's the problem.

I can't pick one of you

over the other.

That's sweet.

Don't choose me.

Because I for real,

I'm a murderer.

And like Victoria said,

some people should die.

My crime was simple.

I came home,

and I found my woman in

bed with my best friend.

Come over here.

Come on, listen, come

on let's talk this out.

This was a mistake.

I saw

nothing but black.

We'd never do anything

to hurt you.

We'd never do...

What you doing?

What you doing man?

Come on man, what you doing?!

I grabbed my pistol.

Come on, come on, come on.

Baby.

Say something.

Come on baby.

And I shot them both.

Right there on the spot.

Even though they had both

got down on their knees and

begged me not to.

I still had my boat.

So I took their bodies

out to the sea

and I cut them up.

And I tossed them

out to the sharks.

Was there an investigation?

I told the police that

they had left town together.

That his wife and

my mother-in-law off my back.

Got away with the whole thing.

But these people must have

something 'cause they know.

They know.

I'm ready to make amends

for what I have done.

I'll take the first one out.

Send someone in,

we've made our choice!

Where is she?

Where is she?!

My bullet is faster

than your knife.

Jaclyn right?

Let me introduce myself.

I'm Charlie, I run this program.

And you are messing things up.

Look at this.

My god.

Stay with us.

Robby come on,

stay with us, stay with us.

Come on, you can do it.

Wherever you are.

No, stay with us.

They can't do this to you.

Now I'm finally free.

They can't do this to you.

No.

Your stupid little note

just got Robby killed.

This woman over here

has managed to

get another one of you killed.

Don't be stupid.

Time's running out.

Make a decision.

Like I said,

we're all gonna die.

Arnold are you okay?

My heart won't stop pounding.

We understand honey.

I'm a professor.

I've never shot a gun I've

never even had a fight.

I'm sorry I didn't help you.

We wouldn't have made

it halfway down the hall.

I think better on my feet.

I'm sorry about Robby.

But I put my life out there

with him.

You're so brave.

I'm sorry I didn't help.

I just couldn't f***ing move.

It happened so fast I,

I don't know how

I got under the table.

Let's move on.

We have to accept

that only one of us

will walk out of here.

And after what you

just tried to do Jaclyn

I think that should be you.

No.

Let's figure this out.

I'd like to start

with saying that...

No, don't say another word.

They say we're all murderers

and we all deserve to die.

How should we judge each other?

Based on how many

people we killed?

Or heads we've cut off

or bodies we've buried?

What an appalling idea.

Okay, I just say we go

with our gut feelings okay.

The vibes we all got

from each other.

I still say we shouldn't

play this game.

We have four voting sessions

and each one one of us survives.

In each one one of us wins.

When they come in here

we tell them

we all voted, we voted

for all of us to survive.

That's brilliant.

Yes, we've got

something to fight back.

But also merciful.

I like it.

Do we all agree?

Good.

Now to make this

as official as possible,

who do we wanna chair?

That's easy.

We'd be stupid not to let the

one lawyer among us

make our case.

Yeah, she's got my vote.

Okay.

Well let's start.

I just saw my whole life

rush behind me.

There's always hope Jeffrey.

A hope?

Yeah okay,

I was born under a rock

that never got moved.

Okay let's vote.

Let's begin with Victoria.

All those in favor

of Victoria being

the one raise your hands.

It is decided.

Now, all those in favor

of Jeffrey being the one,

raise your hands.

Think, don't screw up

the plan.

It is decided.

Now, all those

in favor of Arnold

being the one, raise your hands.

It is decided.

Now all those

in favor of me Jaclyn

being the one to survive,

raise your hands.

It is decided.

Now, all those

in favor of getting

out of here alive.

I can't take

much more of this!

Hit it boys!

What do ya think

you're doing now

Making a f***ing

defense for ourselves!

Jeffrey, let me

do the talking.

We are exercising

our legal rights!

Yeah, what about the

rights of those people

that you had killed?

I did not kill anyone.

You're a liar!

I was acquitted,

found innocent!

Bringing me here

is a violation of my

5th amendment rights!

Yeah?

You have no rights sweetheart.

I f***ing knew it!

Sit down!

You killed him!

One more chance

or you'll all die!

Especially you.

This can't be done.

Yeah?

Well I wanna live.

How about you Victoria,

you wanna live?

Me?

I was one step away from

going off a bridge last week.

Look, like I said before,

we should take

a preliminary vote.

Okay, so f***ing do it.

Right, Jaclyn.

You do it.

Okay, let's

start with Victoria.

Sh*t.

Don't give me the hope.

I vote for her.

Jeffrey.

Look okay sure, I

wanna f***ing live okay.

But I know what I did.

You hear that?!

I know what I f***ing did!

Alright, so it's one vote

for Victoria.

Now Jeffrey are you still out?

Yeah.

Yeah I gotta face it.

That's really admirable

of you Jeffrey.

I'm proud of you.

Okay, moving on.

Who votes for Jaclyn?

So, one vote for Victoria

and one vote for Jaclyn.

Who votes for me?

One vote for me, so, look.

You guys, it took me eight years

to get my Doctorate.

We both help people out.

I've gotten 100 people

off that I've represented.

Including yourself?

I was tried

and found innocent.

Let's be real.

Is there any hope of us

agreeing on the same person?

Alright.

Just wanted to talk to him.
