Where was the last time

you saw these--

these disks?

He sent it in two forms.

He e-mailed me,

and he sent me a hardcopy

in case the email didn't work.

Sofia signed for the package,

and then she put it

in my briefcase,

and I brought it to work with me.

Okay, then--

So you took them to the office.

Wait. No. You know what?

I was running late.

When I got in the car,

my briefcase--

my briefcase opened up

and all my stuff spilled out.

- It could be in the car.

- The disk are in your car?

If it's not in the car,

it's in the house.

Okay, okay, Anthony.

Three things, okay?

Uh, I didn't see anything

like that kind of envelope

in your car.

Two, you know,

they may have been

in there and found it.

I don't know. And three,

I am not going back

into your house to look

for a spare key for your car.

There is no way!

No, you don't have to.

There's a--

There's a spare key.

It's on a, uh--

It's on, like, a magnet strip

on the back bumper of the car.

Ah. Okay. All right.

All right. All right.

I got that. I got it.

- Wait a minute. No, you know what?

- What?

They might still be there.

Anthony, I'm gonna make sure that--

- that they're not gonna be there, okay?

- No, Sumner.

- I'm on it. Bye.

- No. Sumner, don't go.

- Don't--

- Bye. Bye. Bye.

Tell me you have it.

There's no sign of it yet.

I was assured

we'd have it by now.

If we don't have it

in our possession

in ten minutes,

get rid of all evidence.

Not a problem.

Good.

- Tony West's.

- Hey, it's me.

Listen, it's just a matter of time

before they come by the office.

- It's here?

- No, it's not, but they don't know that.

Look, they've been through

my place, all right? So most likely,

the next place that they're headed

is gonna be there.

- I'm not leaving.

- Janet--

Janet, this isn't up for discussion.

- I know. What do you want me to do?

- Janet--

All right. All right.

Look, just get into Edward's office and--

and see if you can get into his files.

Get any-- anything

that you can on ZHP.

We're gonna need all

the evidence we can get.

Uh, doesn't he keep

his office locked?

No, his secretary has a spare key.

What, do you want me

to break in? Tony?

Oh, God.

Monday morning, I want a raise.

This is Edward.

Where does it end?

Tony.

Where does it end?

I know about the trials,

and I know about the seven deaths.

And you know what?

I cannot even believe

that you would kidnap my wife.

What are you talking about?

Look, just tell me

where she is, okay?

I don't know.

Where's Sofia, Edward?

Where's my wife?

We didn't kidnap her.

That's bullshit!

Tony, you have to believe me.

I would never do anything

to hurt Sofia.

I know-- I know about the data

that you distorted, Edward.

I know about everything

that you did.

I'm sorry.

It's what we did.

Every document

and every statement

that came out of Pharmical

carried both of our signatures.

You know what?

I trusted you.

I trusted you,

and you lied to me.

You know that I would never

have signed off on ZHP

if I had seen any of the actual data.

- You know that.

- Please, get off your soapbox.

This is the real world, pal.

What about the kidnapping?

I told you, I had nothing to do with that.

Well, there's too much

riding on this for you.

For you, for me,

for all of us.

If that data would've gotten out,

we would've all been finished.

Really? Yeah?

Just like Zeffert's finished?

Look,

Zeffert couldn't handle

the responsibilities

that went along with success.

He was gonna go to the press.

And I'm sorry,

but I couldn't let him do that.

ZHP is a miracle drug.

It is a cure for cancer.

You were the one, weren't you?

You were the one,

the whole time, pulling strings?

Did Garnett have anything

to do with it?

Garnett doesn't have a clue

on what's going on.

Tony, one thing

you have to realize

is that when the moment arrives,

you have to be ready for it.

You have to be ready

to stand up.

When you see it,

you have to be ready to fight for it.

You know what?

The SEC's gonna figure this out.

They're not gonna

figure anything out.

I mean, by midnight,

this is gonna be a faint memory.

That's all that matters to you, isn't it?

That's all that matters.

This is worth billions of dollars!

If an eight-figure bank account

isn't enough to curb your tongue,

it's more than enough

motivation for all of us!

This is about more

than money, Edward.

It's about more than money.

There are lives at stake with this.

There are always lives at stake,

and, unfortunately,

now yours is one of them.

Yeah, well, you know what?

You know what, Edward?

This is how it's gonna go down

from this point forward.

All right?

You're gonna get Sofia back.

- We don't have her.

- You're gonna get Sofia back for me,

or I'm gonna go

into the boardroom,

and I'm gonna tell Traxil everything

that they need to know, all right?

You think that Ulsan

and the Traxil group are so clean.

Maybe it's them you should be asking

about the kidnapping.

Where's my wife?

Look, just calm down.

I promise you

that I will do everything I can,

and we will get her back.

"We"?

Yes, "we." Both of us.

There is no "we" anymore, Edward.

Excuse me.

Yes.

- Tony.

- Why are you whispering?

I'm in Edward's office.

They're here.

Janet, I'm almost there, all right?

Just hang on, okay?

Hurry.

Yes!

Don't move.

Okay.

You know, the cops

are on the way.

Sure they are.

Shut up.

Let her go.

Let her go. Come on.

We're all on the same team here.

Not anymore.

We have your wife.

- Her life now rests in your--

- Damn it, what is that?

We have your wife.

Her life now rests in your hands.

We have your wife.

Her life now rests in your hands.

What is that?

What is that, bells?

Her life now rests in your hands.

Sprinklers are giving me hell.

You know, I have to rotate them,

like, every hour.

We have your wife.

Her life now rests--

Hello.

Hey, it's Tony.

Hey, where have you been?

I haven't heard from you.

I'm at the office.

Are you at your house?

- Janet, hey.

- Yeah.

Oh, thank God

that you're still there.

- Are you all right?

- I'm fine.

They left the office chasing you.

Did you lose them?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I think so.

Listen, you gotta stop

the negotiations right now.

- I can't.

- They can't close this deal, Janet.

- What do you want me to do?

- You gotta go in there

and you gotta tell Garnett everything.

Well, what about you?

What are you going to do?

I'm gonna get my wife back.

Okay.

Let's go.

Janet, you gotta stop

the negotiations right now.

- Security. Adams here.

- What happened?

We've got a fire alarm

on the 20th floor, sir.

- We're looking into it.

- God damn it.

Attention.

Please proceed to the nearest exit.

Attention.

Please proceed to the nearest exit.

This is Ulsan.

We got it. We can still deliver.

Has it been checked?

Sumner says it checks out.

It's the disk that

you've been waiting for.

I'll dispose of the girl and make
