It may be the only thing that will

buy you off the death penalty.

This is your last hope.

Hope.

Hope.

Hope.

Hope.

Hope, sweetie, wake up.

Hope.

You okay?

God. James.

Come here.

I can't believe it.

You're here.

- You're here.

- I'm here, Hope.

I've never been so happy to hear

someone say my name.

What are you doing here?

How did you even find me?

I've been here for days.

I looked at the hotel,

but you checked out.

I even looked at the morgue.

- You won't believe what's going on.

- I heard, they told me.

At the police station.

- They had me in...

- Jail, I know.

Once I was able to verify your identity,

they were all so embarrassed.

I made a quick, angry phone call

to the embassy...

...I had you out in seconds flat.

You don't remember any of this?

Some things. Little bits, I guess.

- Where are my clothes?

- Your clothes are trashed.

I ordered new ones,

they'll be here soon.

- Thank you.

- Anything else...

...we put in this.

- What the heck is that?

- It's my evil-eye bracelet.

It wards off bad luck.

I think you might wanna

check those batteries.

I can't wait to get out of this city

and go home.

First flight out tomorrow morning.

Oh, I can't believe this is almost over.

I'm so happy.

I gotta run over to the embassy

before it closes...

...to do some paperwork

before we leave.

- No, please don't go.

- Well, I'll be back in less than an hour.

You're gonna be fine,

nothing's gonna happen to you.

Police even have a guard

outside the door.

Tomorrow morning

we leave for Los Angeles. All right?

All right.

Trust me. I'll turn this nightmare

of yours into a dream.

I was in jail and...

This guy said he was from

the American Embassy.

He said, "Trust me, I'll turn this

nightmare of yours into a dream. "

Okay. Okay.

Who are you? Who are you?

Come on, tell me who you are.

Who are you working for?

Hello, Hope.

Let him go.

- No.

- I said, let him go.

No!

Let's go.

You were in on this

from the beginning?

Who do you think gave Suzer

your recommendations?

You were good, but we had

to get them to hire you.

You set me up!

This all could have been so easy,

you know.

Easy? Easy for who?

You just had to

leave the money alone.

You stole my life.

People were trying to kill me.

Hey, we all had to make sacrifices.

I had to pretend I was in love with you.

There're some perks I am gonna miss.

That was the problem with you

from the start.

You never appreciated what you had.

- Why me?

- Why you? Because we could.

No parents, no friends, no life. No one

would miss you when you were gone.

Hey, you wanted adventure.

Well, you got it.

You could have

stolen the money yourself.

From Russian gunrunners?

We'd never live to see any of it.

No, we needed a patsy,

somebody expendable.

Hope!

Sh*t.

What?

Open the door!

Who are you?

I'm an intelligence officer for Interpol.

Computer Crimes Division.

We've been tracking

your boyfriend, James...

...whose real name is

David Thompson...

...and Dr. Kavak for years.

- Kavak's involved too?

She's a cop gone bad.

The money.

I can tell you where it is.

- Does anyone else know where it is?

- No.

So, what do you want with me?

We left you alone too long.

It's not safe anymore.

- Not safe anymore?

- Time to bring you in.

So you bring me in,

and for the rest of my life I'm running...

...looking over my shoulder?

I don't think so.

You haven't got a choice.

Yes, I do.

They wanna go to the bank,

get the money?

I say we let them get it.

I had her. The b*tch pulled me

down the stairs.

- No. No... Hold on.

- No!

Take it easy.

Calm down, calm down.

Don't do anything stupid.

- Where are you taking me?

- I think you know where.

You're gonna kill me

after you get the money?

Oh, it's not that simple.

Once I get my money,

you're free to do whatever you want.

But as long as you're alive...

...I don't think those Russians

are gonna forget about you. Do you?

Kavak?

- Didn't know you made house calls.

- Bank opens in five. Let's go.

- And here I thought you were the boss.

- Come on.

Look, can I go to the bathroom?

- I've been sitting in a car all night.

- No. You stay in our sights.

I can cause quite a scene.

It's fine. I'll go with her.

Wait, wait, wait.

Okay.

Leave the door open.

You've taken everything else I have,

how about leaving me a bit of dignity?

All right.

Come on, we haven't got all day.

I'm coming. Hold on.

- Done?

- I'd just like to wash my hands.

Let's get the money.

Hi. I would like to go

to my safety-deposit box.

Yes, of course. Come with me.

- I'm sorry, ma'am, box holders only.

- Of course.

Don't worry, I just want this thing

to be over.

Here she is.

I drop the bag in the car

and then I'm walking. I'm done.

You do as we tell you.

We count the money first.

Get off of me!

Let me go!

Get off of me!

Who the hell are you?

You took our money.

Get off of me!

Who has the money?

- You are?

- Hope Cassidy.

- And you are?

- Kelly Roos.

Kelly Roos.

It seems you took

a great deal of my money.

You can have it back.

- And then I let you go?

- Something like that.

You can keep the doctor

and her boy toy if you'd like.

It doesn't work that way.

Who would respect me?

How could I do business

if I was so generous?

I'll let you pick who goes first.

- No, look, we don't have to do this.

- Choose.

- We can talk about this.

- Choose.

- Choose!

- No, this doesn't have to happen!

Choose!

How the hell did you even find us?

Sometimes you just

have to have hope.

A lot of good it did her.

Captain...

...thank you for your help.

Anytime. You can ride

in the ambulance if you'd like.

I really should.

- Can I get up yet?

- Yes, you are safe.

It's not easy being dead.

The only way they wouldn't

come looking for you.

I was panicked this wouldn't work.

Come on, we haven't got all day.

Here, put this on.

You know...

...I was wondering.

- How did you find me at the hotel?

- We knew where you were at all times.

Hey, why do you think

I gave it to you?

So this whole thing was a setup

from the beginning.

I told you on the plane...

...nothing is ever

as it seems in Istanbul.

- You could have told me something.

- I did.

At the appropriate time.

Here you go.

New passport and new name.

You remembered.

And some money and clothes

to get you started.

So will it ever be safe

to go back to being me?

Not until we know how far-reaching

the organization is.

Even then...

That's all right. I was getting

a little tired of being me.

By the way...

...all of the money burned in the car

with Ivanakov...

...that was all the money, wasn't it?

Here I thought

we trusted each other.

I had to ask.

Do you think we can trust her?

We have to.

We may need her again.
