Crimson and clover

Crimson and clover

over and over.

Crimson and clover

over and over.

Crimson and...

No.

You take care of your sister.

I'm not leaving without you.

Go!

It's gonna be Ok.

Police are investigating

last night's armed

robbery and arson

of the centurion trust bank.

According to a statement

released by the department

this morning, at about 5:15

pm, police responded to a call

from inside the bank where

six employees and one patron

were being held

hostage at gunpoint.

Bank employees described

five bank robbers, three

white males, two white females.

The robbers were armed.

The bank employees

were transported

to Grant hospital where they

were treated for injuries

and were later released.

The robbers are all believed

to have died in the fire,

authorities have said.

The forecast, plenty

of sunshine through today.

I heard on the radio...

They're saying that we're dead.

What was that?

What did you see down there?

Because I know what I saw.

We were attacked.

By the police.

No, it's not the police.

Come on, tell me you saw.

I don't know what I

f***ing saw, all right?

I saw you hesitate when we

were supposed to be leaving,

and the cops were trying

to f***ing kill us.

And I saw the vault,

and I saw that it

was empty because someone went

down there and cleared it out.

So where's the money?

Huh?

Where is the

f***ing money, Leah?

Where's Michael?

Wait.

You were with him.

You didn't... you didn't

take care of him?

He wouldn't come with me.

I tried.

Where is he?

He's dead, Vee.

Don't touch me.

This guy that

you're talking about.

He is not showing up on

any of the camera footage.

None of the cameras,

he's not there.

He's not anywhere to be found.

What are you saying?

I'm saying it

just doesn't add up.

You know this bank inside

and out, vault's customers

throughout the years,

and yet, you don't

recognize this individual.

I've got six positive

ids, six hostages.

But you're telling me

that there's seven.

I thought this was

just a de-briefing?

Am I a suspect now too?

They took your

radio, your firearm.

Any shred of dignity

you had left...

Well, I guess you didn't,

because they took that too,

right?

Why did you get

special treatment?

What treatment?

I was a hostage.

I barely made it out.

You get your own room.

You were the only

hostage that was let go.

How old was he?

I don't remember.

Forties, maybe.

Did he say a name?

Any names called?

- I don't remember anything.

What were they talking about?

The vault. And the alarm.

Could you make out a voice?

He was telling them

all the steps they needed

to make to disarm the alarm.

So he did

or did not work at the bank?

He must have.

He wouldn't know those things.

How the f*** should I know?

Yeah, maybe he worked there.

No, he was not a bank employee.

Did he say his name?

He never said his name,

but I know everybody that's

worked at that bank

for the past 10 years,

and I have never seen

him there before.

Are you saying you saw this man,

but he's not showing up on

any of the bank cameras.

You realize that, don't you?

All the cameras we have, all

the backup systems, he's...

I mean, he's

nowhere to be found.

You've seen employees come

and go, regional managers,

auditors, yet, you don't

know who this guy is?

Hello, this is centurion trust.

We have a robbery in

progress at 23 Forsythe.

Please, send the police.

In progress right now.

They're in the

building, they're taking

hostages, as soon as you can.

That's him.

Where?

This guy?

That's not possible.

That's one of the original

hostages from 1982.

What's wrong?

It won't start.

All right, pop the hood.

And when I say crank it, try it.

Ok, try it.

Ah, ah ah, ah, ah, ah.

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

F***.

Vee!
