Hello, Mr. West.

Do you wish to see

your wife again?

Who is this?

It's a simple question

needing a simple answer.

- Yes or no?

- Yeah.

Then do exactly as we say.

You are going to bring

$50,000 to MacArthur Park

and put it in a trashcan

on the south side of the boathouse.

Be there exactly at 7:20.

We will call your cell phone.

How do I know she's still alive?

You'll have to trust me.

No. No, no, no.

You know what? Uh-uh.

No, I'm not gonna

bring you anything.

I'm not gonna bring you anything

until you tell me that she's alive.

You're going to do what we say

or your wife will die.

Now, you have 90 minutes

to get there with the money.

Don't be late.

Don't try anything.

We are watching.

We are watching.

Don't try anything.

We are watching.

Watching.

Next customer in line.

I need a picture ID.

We're not authorized to release

this amount of money, sir.

I need to see the manager then.

May I help you, sir?

I need to make a withdrawal.

Well, typically,

transactions of this amount

require higher approval,

and it's 6 already,

so we really won't be able

- to authorize this until tomorrow.

- You need to authorize that.

- I'm sorry, Mr. West.

- You need to authorize it right now.

- I know my rights, all right?

- I can't change policies.

I know my rights.

You're holding my money.

And this is an emergency.

Now you get on the phone and you call

whoever it is that you have to call.

I know it's the end of the day for you,

but I have three minutes.

I have three minutes,

and I'm not leaving here without my money.

Margo, let's try to get Mr. Pennington

on the phone,

and, um, I will start to process this.

What? What's wrong?

Even if I wanted to,

you don't have the money in your account.

No, no, no, no.

No. I've got more-- There's more money

in that account. My wife--

My wife handles all this.

There's more money in that account.

There haven't been

any recent withdrawals at all.

What do you want me to do?

Sir, what do you want me to do?

Um, just close it.

Margo, let's close

this gentlemen's account.

Here you go, sir.

$29, 186.36.

You're welcome to count it.

No, it's fine.

Sign here, please.

- Are you okay, sir?

- Yeah.

- Is something wrong?

- No, I'm fine, thanks.

He went that way.

All right, all right, all right.

Think, think, think.

- What are you doing?

- Can I-- Look, I'm in--

I'm in a lot of trouble right now,

and if I don't get out of here,

Can you help me? Can I just--

I need your help.

- Can I go in your house? Is that okay?

- Wow. Yeah.

- Can we go in? That's fine?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I have no money.

We have a problem.

- Mr. Garnett?

- Yes, sir.

We have a few questions

about this SEC filing back in '04.

I assure we followed everything

to the letter, Mr. Ulsan.

Well, let's discuss

your concerns, Mr. Ulsan.

I think that'd be appropriate.

What-- What the hell's going on?

- Sofia was kidnapped.

- What?

And if I wanna see her again,

I have to be at MacArthur Park

in an hour and ten minutes

with $50,000.

- And I don't have that kind of money.

- Are you kidding me? Fif--

- How much?

- They're folowing me.

They're listening to my calls,

and I don't know what I'm gonna do.

Who-- Who-- Who?

Look. Lookit. Look.

You see them?

Unit 74, please invest--

They followed me from the bank,

and I didn't stop.

- You ran?

- I can't stop.

What am I supposed to do?

I have an hour and ten minutes.

Okay, okay.

Let's just think it through.

Let's think it through.

Where can you get that kind of money?

Uh, can you wire the money?

Can you wire it?

No. The bank-- It's 6.

It's closed.

- Credit cards.

- I don't have that kind of credit.

How about somebody who does

have that kind of money?

- Somebody who's rich?

- I don't know. No, no, no.

- Beaucoup rich.

- No.

Think. There's gotta be somebody.

In your line of work, there's somebody

who's got that kind of money.

My boss, Edward.

- I can't call Edward.

- Okay. There you go.

- I'm not gonna call Edward.

- Where-- Here.

- I can't. No, no, no. No, no, no.

- Here. Call him right now.

I'll be right back.

Hello. Tony West's office.

- Janet, it's Tony.

- Hi.

Uh, is Edward there?

Can I talk to him?

Sure. He's still downstairs

with Mr. Garnett and Mr. Ulsan.

- Can you get him for me, please?

- Uh-huh.

- It's really important.

- Are you on your cell?

No, I'm not on my cell.

Um, can, uh--

Okay, have him call me--

Have him call me on this number.

- 310--

- 310, right?

- Is this 310?

- Yeah. Oh, yeah.

- 310-222--

- 222--

- 8242.

- 8242.

Okay. Got it. I'll do it now.

- Okay.

- Okay?

Hey, you take that.

One for you, one for me.

I modified these awhile ago.

I have no idea what kind

of range they are,

but, you know, the kids--

You don't-- I--

You don't need to do this.

Yeah, I know that,

But I figured you'd do the same for me.

You know, what else do we do?

Seriously, so...

Okay, this is what we gotta do.

Uh, we gotta figure out

if there's anything that we know

that-- that--

that's gonna help us.

- Anything.

- Okay, okay. I don't know.

I don't know if this means anything,

but when I went in my house,

the door to my office was closed,

and I never close my office door.

Okay. What's in there?
