There's an cabin

at the eastern hold in Caskey.

Okay, lt's time to make the call.

You think you're smarter than

all the other moms?

No, you are not.

'Cause they didn't hurt me.

And now you get your daughter alive?

I want you to think about Marvin now.

Sitting there, watching the clock.

Waiting

It's time.

It's time to play the game.

First, you have to close your eyes.

Joe, she is my daughter.

She is my little girl.

Okay now, what you have to do

... is you have to think nice thoughts.

Pretty thoughts.

I'm thinking about my mommy.

Yeah, that's it.

She's pretty.

She's pretty and she loves you very much.

Now I want you to stay very still.

Joey?

Yes.

It's me. Who the f*** else it will be?

You're late, Joey.

You can't be late.

l know, I'm sorry, I know.

Things are cool.

It's going to be over soon.

Just like the other times. Right?

Yes. Just like the other times.

I'm going to follow your plan.

You don't have to worry about me.

And you will get your money.

Did you ever think that...

maybe it wasn't about the money

I mean...that ever crossed your mind?

That a guy like me could be motivated

by something other than grip.

Hank, wake up, it's emergency.

What happened?

My child is in danger but you can help her.

Before I tell you anything,

You got to promise me not to call the police.

I don't understand.

My daughter's kidnapped last night

I can't go to the police,

'cause if I do,

The kidnappers will kill her. Understand?

Yes.

And that you sync the phone,

you wires on network, I am hoping,

I am praying the vice president of wire source

can trace us the calls for me.

Can l go home now?

Pretty soon.

Go home and see your mommy.

We have to wait for a phonecall.

And then we can go.

Those are the rules.

It's fine that they always do it the same with

clouds and sun for hours.

She doesn't have good hands, you know.

They have travelled with that,

but she is good.

It's a bad day, isn't it?

I know.

l know you have kids, Joe.

Don't think that you know me.

Okay.

Come on. Pretty smile. It's showtime.

My daughter is on a moving truck, an I5. The main kidnapper is

close behind her, straight to kill her.

You have to set down on the highway.

Negative, that's not an option.

We're behind you at a chopper.

Ground unit is only 20 minutes away.

That's too long. You have to set down now.

Tighten your seat belt.

There's the road.

Then they're down there somewhere.

Now keep your eyes peered for Marvin's pickup truck.

What the f*** is this guy doing?

Wait a minute...

That's Will, isn't it?

That's the f***ing doc, isn't it?

Answer me.

There's Marvin.

I think it's Marvin. It must be Marvin.

Are you sure?

Brown truck.

F***.

What are you doing?

Joey, what's wrong? It's not time yet.

You see this f***ing guy? You see a plane?

No.

F***ing b*tch.

Watch out!

What are you gonna do?

Jump. Jump. Jump.

Abby...

Abby, get out. Get out...

Run fast... run...

Daddy.

Daddy... daddy....

No...

Abby.

Where's my little girl?

Where's Abby?

I don't know...

What do you mean you don't know.

Because I don't know.

FBI.

Sir, I need you to drop that gun.

Joey! Joey!

Guess what, doc...

You won't get to die today.

Because I want you to spend the rest of

your f***ing life...

... feeling like I feel...

You're wrong about how Katie died.

I didn't kill her!

Joey.

Get a car.

Don't do it!

Please don't hurt me.

Abby...

Abby...

Abby? Abby...

Where are you honey?

Daddy's okay, now honey... he...

... he said to come find you.

Abby.

There you are.

Hey.

Daddy?

There's my girl...

Daddy?

I got the money, Joey, I got the money.

Baby... remember when I told you I had

a surprise for you...

Yeah.

She's it.

What does that mean?

We're family again...

You, and me, and her...

No, baby. We'll leave her right here,

with her parents..

No, no...

No, we're taking her with us.

Joey, we can have our own kid...

Marvin...

... f***ing stupid...

Joey, Joey, we'll leave this baby here...

No, she's just as innocent as Kathie was...

Hey, listen to me. Are you coming with me?

Or not?

I need you. I f***ing need you.

You're the mom.

Now, get the f*** in the truck.

Get in...

Joey...

Joey!

What? What?

It's another attack.

F***. F***. Where the f*** is the medicine?

In the truck.

Medicine.. in the truck...

In the truck...

God damn it. Where the f*** are you going?

In the truck. The medicine is in the truck.

Marvin, wait...

No, Joey...

Get back.

Put her down. Put her down.

Marvin, give her to me...

She's sick.

Marvin, you have to put her down so

I can give her medicine.

She's sick...

Marvin...

You have to give her to me...

Mommy...

Where's her medicine?

... to me back...

Marvin, please... Please...

Abby, Abby...

No, Abby, breathe...

Once more, baby... Inhale, inhale...

Breathe... breathe...

You need more? Once more.

Come on, baby...

Daddy.
