1
When I was a child I had
a series of nightmares
About a statue,
A bronze woman holding
a plate of grapes.
The "Metal Lady",
as I came to call her,
Never did anything frightening
in those dreams,
She just stood there
on a shelf;
Quiet, watching me.
And I was terrified because,
in those moments,
I felt everything
that was to come.
One day
the dreams stopped
And I never saw
the Metal Lady again.
But I never forgot her.
A day doesn't go by when she
doesn't enter my thoughts
In one way or another.
Not one day.
Okay.
I'll go.
Wait.
Donald.
So are you saying
Thomas won't pay now?
No, Albert,
just between you and me.
I won't visit him or anything.
Right.
Mm-hm.
Call him.
Right.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Call me back.
Hey, Tai.
How are things?
You know.
So...
Speak.
He won't pay?
No, I understand.
We're all friends.
Actor?
No wonder he's poor.
Right?
I gotta go, Albert.
No, we're cool.
Late.
So... I just wanted
to get another round
For the four of us.
Usual?
Yeah, that's good.
"Fun pack" for David.
Hundred fifty.
Here's the thing.
I... we... were kind of
hoping for a favor.
If you wanted a favor,
you should have sent Kari.
I know.
Where is she?
She... she has... herpes.
Herpes?
Yeah... huge... blisters.
When did she...?
Oh, after that, this was,
you know, recent,
This morning, like, she woke up
and just, blam, you know?
I wouldn't, I'm sure you're past
that window, no doubt.
Okay.
This would be an actual favor
not a trade
And then we could get the money
to you...
This isn't Hurricane relief,
David.
That line never gets old to him.
No, I know this isn't,
I just thought...
And we've been
so good about...
Yeah, okay.
Come back when
you've got the money.
Right.
Sorry for bugging you.
Went to rehab together, David.
You don't need to apologize
to me.
In fact,
I'm wondering
When you're going to
come work for me.
I did ask you a few months ago.
You did.
Wouldn't have these problems.
I know that, and I
appreciate it, I do.
I just...
Need to think about things
some more is all.
Phones.
Is it the "dead parents" thing?
No.
No, it's not that.
You can tell me.
I'm sensitive,
I can be sensitive.
No, it's,
I just need more time.
Herpes, huh?
Looks real painful.
You're not buying crank
downtown, are you, David?
No way, I like my car
just the way it is.
Can't trust those people.
They're not like you and me.
I know, I don't.
Even the cops, they go down
there, are wild cards.
That cowboy act last month?
Gunned down
those bank robbers
Even the ones who were trying
to give up.
Even killed a little kid.
Can't trust anything down there.
Don't make that mistake.
I know and I won't.
I have no idea how she got it,
Tai.
Really.
She still seeing that guy,
Splat?
Spot.
Spot.
Maybe it was him.
Probably.
He's a jerk.
I don't even know why I still
hang out with him.
Loyalty's key, David.
Without loyalty,
you're a target.
Tell you what.
I have to run some errands.
But it's my Mom's birthday
today...
Oh, happy birthday.
She thanks you.
I want to get her a television.
A television?
A nice one.
I'm going to be here
until eleven
Then I'm out for the weekend.
See what you can do
and we'll talk.
A television, sure.
This is my cell for today.
When you have something, call.
I'm doing this because it's you.
Because we have history.
I know.
When you come back,
I'm going to want an answer
About the other thing, as well.
Call when you gots.
Thanks, Tai.
What are friends for?
I don't know.
Yeah.
Well?
He wants a television.
I knew we should have sent Kari.
Shut up.
Did he ask for me?
What do you think?
What did you tell him?
I told him you had herpes.
What?
Did you...
David, did you really say that?
I had to say something.
It's okay.
No it's not.
Herpes.
Did he ask about me?
No.
That's funny.
It's not funny.
It's kind of funny.
Shut up!
Stop hitting my car, Spot!
Kari, admit it, it's funny.
Maybe a little.
Kari!
See?
I don't care!
These are issues.
You don't make fun of issues.
Whose issues are they?
They're mine.
They should be yours, too.
I don't know why you're so mad,
Spot.
You're the one who sent her
into Tai's in the first place.
Mother Fff... ahhh!
Whoa!
You're so mad!
You're dead!
We need a television.
Who do we know who has
a real nice television?
Cee Cee's Video has good stuff.
I saw the commercial yesterday.
What are we doing here?
These people just moved in.
How do you know that?
I was driving past last week
on my way to see Amy
And I saw the Ryder
truck out front.
I thought you hadn't seen her
since the funeral.
How is Amy?
When I got there it was just her
lawyer with some paper work, so
I don't know how's she doing.
I like your sister.
Me too.
Yeah.
Why this place?
Because it's too soon for them
to have hooked up
An alarm system.
They're still dealing
with boxes, organizing.
Unpacking, all that stuff.
Smart.
I say we hit downtown.
We'd stick out
like sore thumbs down there.
Listen, we don't even know
they have a television.
Have you ever met someone who
didn't have a television?
Amish people don't have
television.
What?
You're so stupid.
They weren't Amish, Donald.
Nobody around here is Amish.
How do you even know Amish
people don't have television?
I saw it on television.
Oh, you saw it on television
that the Amish people
Don't have television?
Do you even know how much of
a retard you sound like?
No.
Leave him alone.
She's right, quit it.
You.
Don't you even...
This will do.
Why are you making decisions
around here, anyway?
What, you think just 'cause you
have a car makes you boss?
Works for me.
Me too.
I'm not the boss.
That's right, you're not.
And I could have a car, too,
just so everyone knows.
You're not the only one who
could be driving people around.
I just think this is
the perfect choice.
- So do I.
- Me too.
Oh, well, if it's so perfect,
what's the plan to get in there?
- Stupid!
- Shhh.
It's daylight, man.
Nice yard.
Listen, we should wait
until it gets dark.
They'll be back by then.
Big for this neighborhood.
And Tai is heading out
for the weekend tonight.
So it's gotta be now.
You think they'll get a pool?
Donald.
Hope they don't have dogs.
Oh, right.
What's your plan now,
master thief?
I don't see any doggie toys.
No doggie door.
That's good.
What are you two talking about?
Nothing.
Woof.
Stupid.
Here we go.
You should break the little horn
while you're at it.
Well just pop the glass!
No.
Look, I hate to be the bearer
of bad news, David,
But when you're through wasting
all of our time,
I think we should
just get back...
Shut up.
I'm cool.
No alarms.
Everyone look around.
Quietly.
I need a car.
Nice.
What's wrong with you?
Nothing.
Where's Donald?
Don't care.
Take this to the car.
I'll find him.
Let's go.
Television.
We got a flat screen.
That one's junk.
Some people don't like
flat screens.
Gives them a headache.
This might be good
to have as a back up.
Does it work?
Ummmmm...
Just see if it works.
If it does, pick it up
and meet us at the car.
Can you carry it by yourself?
- Yeah, I got it.
- Alright.
I'm gonna go make sure
Spot didn't run off
With that flat screen.
David?
What?
Sorry about your parents.
I don't think I ever
said that to you.
Yeah.
Everything happened so fast with
the accident, then the funeral.
Sorry.
Thanks.
Hurry up.
I will.
Snow.
I wasn't going to
run off with it.
Right.
I was just going to find an
alternate route in case
Something went down.
Uh-huh.
I'm not a thief, David.
Tell him, Kari.
Where's Donald?
He's bringing another
television.
You need a Plan B.
That's all I was thinking.
Plan B.
Speak.
It's me.
David.
Already?
How do you feel about
flat screens?
Flat screens?
Yeah, I've got one in the back
seat right now.
Flat screens are fine.
Doesn't give you a headache?
Only thing that
gives me a headache
Is people who owe me money.
Uhh... okay,
We'll bring
the flat screen by, then.
Yeah, in the middle at the
moment.
Call me when you're ready
to hook up.
Okay.
Late.
We're all set.
Yeah, daddy's little girl.
You're a good little girl
aren't you?
Mmmm, yeah.
Oh yeah, that's good.
Oh yeah.
Suck it.
Now lift the camera.
- Let's just go.
- Spot.
We're not leaving him.
We can't wait here all day.
You even said yourself
they'll be home soon.
And your car doesn't exactly
match the drapes.
At least I have a car.
I could get a car.
You like it.
Donald, we have to...
I knew you liked that.
So good, honey.
Oh, so good.
Suck it.
Now lift the camera.
I'm going to see
what's going on.
Oh no you're not.
You stay right where you are,
stay right where you are!
Stupid!
Hello?
What, what is taking so long?
Woah!
There's a whole box of these.
There's-there's women
with boys and girls,
There's men with
boys and girls.
Look, everything's labeled.
Labels, ooh, let's go.
- No, we can't.
- Excuse me?
It's not our business, Donald.
The guy who lives here
is a pedophile, David.
And we're drug-addict burglars.
Six of one, half a dozen
of the other.
Let's go.
David's right,
we can't stay here.
What about me?
I'm right, too.
We can't just leave.
I'm sorry, was I napping when
you became a superhero?
We'll leave an anonymous tip
for the police.
They won't care.
They'll care,
it's their job.
Yeah, just like it's our job
to steal NAMBLA's flat screen.
Spot.
Serious, he diddles himself
to people diddling children;
We steal his television.
Hurray, the criminal
food chain is intact.
Shut up.
What did you say to me?
Shut up!
Get your hands off me!
You know I have a thing about
that.
Both of you stop!
Nobody cares about this stuff.
- Of course we care.
- No.
It's a crime of the week,
and then it's nothing.
Alright, I've had enough of
this.
Get your rank, stupid self...
Let go of my hand!
Don't you put me down!
You're not going to put me down
in that place!
Do you hear me?
Do you hear me?
Yes, I hear you!
Donald, let him go!
Promise me, David.
Promise me we just
won't blow this off.
I promise.
Just let him go so that
we can get out of here.
He's got a daughter, David.
Her pictures
are all over the house.
I know.
I saw.
What do you think
he does to her?
Who cares?
I care!
My wrist!
We can't do anything right now.
Promise we'll do something
if the cops don't.
I promise.
Swear it!
On your parents!
I swear to you
on my parents,
If the cops don't do anything,
we will.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, okay.
I could get Carpal's Tunnel
from this.
Let's just go.
Donald, no!
Donald, no!
Donald!
You like taking them?
Do you?
Well, how's this?
How's this?
How's this, how's this,
how's this, how's this,
How's this?
I'm out of here.
No, you're not.
You can't just keep us here.
I can and I will.
But... that's not fair.
We can't stay here, Donald.
What's staying here going to
solve?
- I don't know.
- News flash.
If you're going to drag us all
into your psycho crusade,
Maybe you should know.
Stop pressing me!
We can call the police.
He won't go to jail.
- Not for long.
- You don't know that.
I do, they'll put him in jail
and they think that everybody's
Safe but you can't
cure these people.
Donald...
Why do you think they have to
register on the Internet?
It's so everybody knows the cops
can't handle it
And that people
have to handle it themselves.
And half the time
they don't even register.
We have to calm down here...
They'll let him out.
They'll let him out
and he'll do it again.
- You don't know that, Donald.
- I do.
They'll let him out until
he does something
Enough for them to understand
enough to keep him in jail...
But by then... by then...
- If we leave now...
- Donald...
He'll just go free!
You don't know that.
This happened to me!
It happened to me.
Donald.
Oh, God.
God can't see you.
This is bad.
You think?
Please, take anything you
want...
Anything?
How about the DVDs,
can I take them?
The ones with little boys
and girls.
That's all the look I needed.
No, I can explain...
You like sucking things,
don't you?
Smaller the better, yeah?
We can destroy them.
We're going to turn them
in to the cops
Is what we're going to do.
No, please.
Don't do that!
Okay, he's scared, Donald.
We're gonna report him.
What's this "we?"
Spot.
I'm not doing anything.
We're calling the police.
Please don't do that!
I have a family, a little girl.
That's right.
You do have a little girl.
I saw the pictures.
None of this has to
leave this house.
She's about the same age
as those kids
In those little movies of yours.
Are you grooming her for
something special?
You don't understand...
Does she have something you're
gonna want to suck on soon?
Why wait?
I can give you something
to suck on right now.
Donald, we're leaving.
This looks about right.
Donald, no!
Suck on this!
Help me!
Spot!
Help us, man!
Get off of me!
I don't know what I'm doing.
I don't know what I'm doing.
We're here for you.
We're not going anywhere.
We're right here.
One sec.
One sec?
It's okay, Donald.
I know.
I know
it's going to be okay.
Tai.
I expected your call
a while ago.
Bit tied up here.
You guys must be really
jonesin' by now.
A little.
What's that noise?
Uh... Spot got in a fight
with Donald.
Is that crying?
Crying?
Sounds like crying.
Donald hit him pretty hard.
What a puss.
Total puss, right?
Listen, call me
when you've got
Everyone's feelings
smoothed out.
I will.
Oh, and David?
I've been thinking.
I'm doing you and your friends
a real big favor.
I think you owe me a trial run.
Uh, well...
Welcome to the team, buddy.
Call me when you're close.
Tai?
Tai?
David... David...
I know.
Let's get out of here.
Why did you tell Tai I was
crying?
I had to tell him something.
I wasn't crying.
Oh, for God's sake.
No, you said I was a puss.
I'm not a puss.
Did Tai say I was a puss?
I don't feel good...
He's the puss.
Not me.
- I want to go home.
- Okay.
Let's go home.
That's so wrong.
I got 'em.
No!
Who's the puss, now?
What are you doing?
I'm taking charge.
Someone has to.
Don't touch her!
Kari, give me a hand.
It's okay, nobody's
going to hurt you anymore.
My eye, man!
- Leave her alone!
- Shut up!
You knew what he was watching!
You saw those DVDs
and you did nothing!
- Let me go!
- It's okay!
You're safe now!
Okay, she's tied and gagged.
We should tie up
the little girl and go.
No.
You just said you wanted
to go home.
That was before I saw her.
Saw who?
Now what?
The little girl.
I can't leave her.
- Maybe you can adopt.
- Spot!
Serious, I think all the psycho
drug addicts are doing that now.
You don't scare me.
Spot, your eye.
Oh, really?
Get him some ice.
He can get his own ice.
Get him some ice.
Get her some ice, too.
We have to tie her up.
Absolutely not.
She's been through enough
already.
Donald, listen to me, you're
not thinking clearly here.
We're not tying her up.
We can't keep her loose.
There's no controlling her.
I said no.
Look, I know you're upset.
I know you're trying to do
what's best for this girl.
But you don't know these people,
Donald.
We don't know anything
about them.
We don't know this man,
we don't know this woman
And we definitely don't know
this little girl.
Which means they all
have to be tied up.
No.
Donald, be reasonable.
No one touches her.
She's been through enough.
You have one new message.
That's none of your business.
Here, hold this to your eye.
Or not.
- Babe...
- No.
Look, I know we're having issues
right now...
We don't have anything anymore.
I'm a jerk, fine,
and I admit
I'm not always the first
to come up with a good idea.
But it doesn't take a nice,
smart guy,
It doesn't take David to know
this is going to end badly.
Let go of me.
Listen, we can go out
that back door.
We can get the television out
the backseat and go see Tai.
You want to still hate me
after that, fine.
But at least we'll be away from
here and away from Donald,
Away from what is,
I guarantee,
Going to turn into the worst day
of our lives if we stay.
I'm taking this
to the woman you punched.
You do whatever you want.
Stupid.
Central.
I have a car parked
without a permit.
Over.
Uh, hey, Ross.
Just make sure it's not
a resident's car.
We don't want a problem
like last time.
Donald, no matter
what you're feeling,
No matter what
you're going through...
He has to die.
It's okay.
It's okay,
I won't hurt you.
Here, this should help.
Thank you.
What?
Thank you.
You're welcome.
She's a beautiful girl.
What's her name?
Mia.
Her name is Mia.
Mia, that's a pretty name.
What's your name?
Kari.
Kari's a pretty name, too.
Oh, thank you.
What is her gag doing off?
She's fine.
I'm Jennifer.
What's your name?
Irrelevant.
Keep an eye on the brat.
No, no, no,
Donald...
Listen to me, this is the only
way to protect her.
Now I can't make you
feel good
About doing
the right thing here.
You'll have to deal with that
on your own.
Deal with what?
Nothing.
He needs to know.
Know what?
Donald wants to kill that guy.
- You are crazy.
- It's still going to happen.
You want to go down for
this guy, that's on you.
I'm out.
No you're not.
Watch me.
Oh, and this,
this is for my eye.
You want some, too?
Keys.
Give me the keys or I start
hurting everyone.
Last chance.
Enjoy the ride down.
Help!
Okay, okay.
I think we're okay.
No.
No.
You're dead!
Get off of me!
Get off!
Get your hands off of me!
I'll kill you,
I'll kill you!
No.
That's it, that's it, it's over.
Listen...
They have the car.
The television.
There's a way around this.
Eventually, they'll put it
together and we're done,
I'm done.
Look at me!
When we all first met, I should
have made a different choice.
Kari, this...
Listen, I know,
there's never a good time
To say something like this,
But we still have choices,
you and I.
There's still time.
How do we get past Donald?
Last words?
Don't do this.
Noted.
Where's the knife?
Where is it?
You can't do this, Donald.
It has to be done.
What about her?
Her's who I'm doing it for.
You're going to kill this guy
in front of his daughter?
You'll be traumatizing her
for life.
He's right, Donald.
Think.
I'll take him to the basement.
No!
Help me with this.
Please!
What's wrong?
I'm sorry.
What?
Hey!
Get me out of here!
There's no lock.
I need a hand.
Hurry!
David!
Open this door!
David!
Act normal.
Okay.
We have to find out
where the car is.
No, we have to report it stolen.
They'll connect it to the house.
Right, you're right.
We'll report it stolen.
Where do we go first?
My place?
Okay.
Maybe we can get another
television
And then we can
go see Tai.
What,
what's the matter?
Can we just leave Spot?
I can.
I can, too.
That's not...
But, if Donald
gets out of the basement...
If he kills that guy,
Spot's...
We'll make it fast.
And then he can go his own way.
Just you and me.
Just you and me.
David?
Untie me.
Hold on.
David.
Hurry up, man.
David!
David.
Kari.
Look, Donald...
I'm looking, David.
I see.
Where's the girl?
The girl?
It's the craziest thing.
I got locked in the basement,
And when I got out
she was gone.
Imagine that.
There's no reason to...
To what?
Get mad?
I'm past mad.
We were just going
to get the car.
Oh?
Get the car,
come back pick us all up.
Was that it?
Something like that,
more or less!
Hello?
Mia.
Seven.
Uh-huh.
Um-hm, yes.
Okay.
Okay.
It's for you.
Hello?
This is Lieutenant
Charles Tarelli.
Am I speaking to the person
in charge?
They want to talk to you.
Hello?
Is this the person in charge?
You told them I was in charge?
Oh.
Hello?
Hello?
Yes.
Are you in charge?
Yes.
Didn't I speak with you first?
You did.
Why are you telling me
someone else is in charge
When it's you I'm supposed
to be talking to?
Normally David's
in charge.
He has the car.
He drove us here, and that was
his car they towed... oh...
So you're in charge?
Yes.
So, talk to me.
Why would I talk to you?
Because we've got
the entire house surrounded
And talking to me is going to be
your only way out.
What did he say?
We're surrounded.
SWAT's secured the perimeter,
sir.
Good.
Good.
Both neighbors
have been moved out.
Okay.
Outgoing calls on the house
phone have been routed to us
And the psychologist
is on his way.
E.T.A.?
Well, there's a four car pile-up
on the one so...
Right.
- How's my favorite Neapolitan?
- Jimmy.
It's good to see your boys
haven't lost their touch.
Promotions.
Priorities.
Where's our command post?
Find out who has access
to that community center
Up the street
and get us in ASAP.
Yes, sir.
Practice my table hockey.
And get all the information
on the car
The security guard towed.
And one more thing.
As soon as the media
gets wind of this
Things are gonna get tight
so get someone else
To set up an outer perimeter for
them.
I need you on the towed car
and community center.
Now.
You got it.
"Nice Place To Live."
So the sign says.
Where's the shrink?
Route one.
So much for therapy.
You want to rattle the cage?
Let them get the panic out of
their system first.
I don't want them to do
anything stupid.
They got a little girl in there.
I heard.
Dispatch said she was
the one who called 911.
You okay?
Yeah.
Let's get to it.
Donald.
Donald, think about this.
We have to be smart.
They've got us
completely surrounded.
There is no way out of this.
There's nothing to win here.
We can't keep them out and
we're not going to get away.
We have to turn ourselves in.
There's nothing stopping them
from coming in here
And killing us all!
Come on, man.
Be reasonable.
No one touches the phone!
Hey!
You guys suddenly an item?
Spot.
Don't act like
you can't hear me!
- Spot.
- What?
I don't need to tell you there's
a situation brewing outside.
Congratulations, you just did.
I think we can help each other.
How's that?
I could make sure you don't do
as much time as your friends.
How are you gonna help me?
I could tell the police you
were here against your will.
Go on.
I could tell them your friends
coerced you
And it wasn't until you felt
my daughter was in danger
Did you step up to try to
protect her.
And that's when
they tied you up.
All of a sudden you're not
a criminal, you're a hero.
And what do you want?
The DVDs.
I don't want that kind of
embarrassment for my family.
You want me to...?
Destroy them.
They have a word for
things like that, you know?
Suddenly you have morals?
Listen, he can get off on dead
baby seals for all I care.
Then what's your point?
Every time you clean up
his mess, you let it go on.
Do you want to
get out of here alive?
Because if your psycho friend
kills my husband,
I'm the only one
who can help you.
How do you expect me to...
In the same room as the DVDs,
there's a box labeled
"Backyard accessories".
You'll find lighter fluid and
matches for outdoor grilling.
Break them, burn them.
I really don't care which.
I'm tied up.
Get loose.
It doesn't have to be like this.
You don't have to make this
any worse than it already is.
You let me go now,
I won't press any charges.
Is that what they say?
Is that what the kids say
when you rape them?
Do they say, "please, if you
let me go I won't tell anyone?"
I've never raped anyone!
But you want to, don't you?
No!
No one has movies like that
unless they want to!
I would never hurt a child!
Liar!
Leave him alone!
Stop hurting him!
Enough!
Hide.
You know,
with you out of the way,
That little girl might finally
start telling the truth
About what's been going on
around here.
Kids are smart, you know?
Even if you haven't
touched her yet,
I bet she knows all about you.
- We need to speak with them.
- No.
No, no, they need to know we're
not with Donald on this.
We have to reach out to them.
No, we can't do that.
- They might shoot us.
- David, just...
Remember, in the papers
last month,
When they shot
all those guys downtown
Who tried to rob that bank?
They didn't even ask them
any questions.
They just opened right up
on them,
All of them dead.
It'll be okay.
We'll reach out to them first.
We can use your phone.
No!
Sorry, sorry.
There has to be another way.
Okay.
Okay.
I'll think of something.
Don't worry.
Hello?
How can we avoid a bad ending?
I don't know.
You tell me.
What's going on over there?
Oh, just a couple of buddies
having some soda,
Sharing some smiles.
Cute.
What's your name?
I mean, you can tell me that
right?
Donald.
Okay,
Donald.
I am not challenging
your reasons
For doing
what you're doing
But it's my job
to make sure
That no innocent people
get hurt.
What if they're not innocent?
Are you telling me that
that family
Has committed a crime and
you're the innocent party?
No, I came here to steal
a television to buy drugs.
But I've since learned that my
little soda drinking buddy here
Has quite a little history of
breaking the law.
Donald, if Mr. Tadesky
has broken the law,
Tell me about it.
Let me help, son.
I don't think you can help me.
I'm the only one
that can at this point.
Where's the little girl?
She's with me.
Let her out.
She doesn't have to be
involved in this.
Talk with you later,
Lieutenant.
Getting thirsty.
No, Donald.
Donald, let the...
Donald!
Donald!
Martin, get outta here.
Just a statement.
You'll get a statement
with the rest when I'm ready.
Now get out of here,
this is a restricted area.
Is there a girl in there?
Come on, we received a report
That a girl called 911
from inside the house.
No comment.
How are you coping, Lieutenant?
Come on,
give me a break.
Did someone say break?
Beat it.
Okay!
You okay?
Stop asking me that.
Stop making me ask it.
What do we have on
Connor Tadesky?
We haven't looked.
Maybe we should.
You don't believe this kid,
do you?
He's probably jerking us around.
He is jerking us around.
"Sodas and smiles?"
Come on, Charlie.
Focus.
Look, I know what's going
through your head.
Is that right?
- This isn't downtown.
- Jimmy.
What happened was unfortunate
but we were all cleared then,
Which means you gotta
be clear now.
Just pull up anything
you can on him, okay?
Fine.
I'll get someone on it.
Please...
Please...
Please...
Please...
No, no...
No.
Okay.
Okay.
Find any and all targets
and hold.
Confirm.
Confirm, affirmative,
in position.
Roger that.
This is Walters.
Is he in?
Phone, phone.
This is Lieutenant Tarelli.
Okay, here it is.
I want a camera crew
with a live feed.
I want twenty minutes to
tell everyone about this man.
You do that.
I'll come out
and all of this will end.
Donald, I don't know if I can...
Then we don't have a deal and
you're wasting my time.
If I can swing this
for you,
I'm going to need something
in return.
I'm going to need the girl,
Donald.
You'll get the whole package or
nothing when you deliver.
The end.
Mia?
Tai.
I'm getting the impression
you're not telling me something.
No, it's not that.
There's just been
some complications.
Maybe I can help.
No, there's nothing you can do.
Mia?
Where's my television, David?
I have it.
It's not in pieces, is it,
you tweaker?
David.
No, of course not.
David.
I called him.
I'll call you, I just need...
It's Lieutenant Tarelli.
W-, Was that Kari?
Uh, yeah.
Did she just say the word,
"Lieutenant?"
No, ummm...
Phone.
It's me.
Clean the shed.
Now.
I don't care
that it's your birthday.
Go down there and clean
the shed top to bottom
Or I stop paying the mortgage
now and forever.
Yeah, call me when it's done.
I love you too.
Let's go, let's go, let's go,
let's go.
This is David.
David Jonhston?
Yes.
We have your car, David.
I know.
Where's Donald?
He's in the basement.
Where's the little girl?
In the basement.
With Donald.
We have a real problem here,
David.
I'm kind of in the middle of it.
And you could be at the center
of helping us out.
You want to help us, right?
I do.
We wanted to just walk out the
front door before but we didn't
Because we thought
that you'd shoot us
Like you shot
all those people downtown.
We don't want to shoot anyone
here.
You're not going to shoot us?
We want you to help us.
Okay.
I want to help too.
Then talk to me.
I can come out.
Kari can come out.
I'm sure Spot will come out.
And the mother is up here, too.
That's four of us,
including one hostage.
What about the girl?
I told you, Donald has her in
the basement with the father.
David, can you get us the girl?
Not without Donald knowing.
He's the one running this,
not us.
These people are innocent,
David.
I'm not so sure about that.
Meaning what?
This guy is a pedophile
or something.
We found all these DVDs with
child pornography on them.
That's when Donald went nuts.
Okay, David.
If he's a criminal,
we'll arrest him.
But we can't get to that
until we get the girl out.
But we want to surrender.
We want to come out.
It's not as simple as that.
But we could come out right now.
Why isn't that simple?
Because if you leave
and Donald finds out,
It could cause
a lot of problems.
Mia?
We need to get the girl out
first.
But if we come out,
Maybe you guys
can come in
And you can
go from there,
You know?
Do whatever you have to do.
No, no.
David what are you doing
on the phone?
David?
Where's the extension?
Where is it?
David.
Get off of me!
Get off me!
Get off!
We really needed
a new television.
Sorry, buddy.
Just talked to "the man."
You're out.
Don't worry.
It's not going to end up
in anybody's jacket.
Jimmy...
Don't you "Jimmy" me.
You blew it.
I know it and more importantly,
he knows it.
He's been watching...
The only thing he's been
watching are his poll numbers.
You turned down a chance to have
three of the four perps
Surrender with one
of the three hostages.
We could've had them out
and a team in
To penetrate the basement.
You're too close to this.
I wasn't close enough
the last time!
Go home, Charlie.
You're done.
I have an idea.
No, we tried your idea already.
But... what are you doing?
Just hear it out.
You don't like it,
I'll shut up and go home.
Tell me your idea.
Breaking news.
Authorities have confirmed
a hostage situation
In the Vertera Hill community.
And while very little is known
at this point,
Our sources have indicated
that the police
Have impounded a vehicle
from outside of the house
Earlier today,
A 1969 Buick Electra,
Which they believe
is involved in a burglary
Gone horribly wrong.
Back to you.
Doesn't David have a car
like that?
You still want to help?
Do I get an exclusive?
You'll be behind the scenes
with full access.
Well, can I have...
Time's up.
Yes or no.
Where's Mia?
Where's my daughter?
Connor?
Connor?
What have you done
to my husband?
Shut up!
What are you doing?
He can't have sugar.
Stop that!
I said shut up!
Make sure everyone is secured.
If they're not,
you'll be sorry.
Kari help me find Mia.
Mia!
He's fine.
Check the others.
Mia!
Mia!
Mia?
Mia?
Mia, sweetheart.
You can come out now.
Mia!
Mia!
Mia?
Mia?
Hello?
How's it feel to be
in the kill zone?
Tai, I can explain...
Hey.
I had my whole lab destroyed
because of you.
I didn't mean...
I could have made a whole lot
more money
Having you steal ID's.
But stealing
someone's identity
Would have been more
a business proposition
Than snatching someone's
television set
And I didn't
have you do that
Because this was personal
not business.
It was a personal favor
Because that's what you were
asking of me.
Earth to David.
Come in, David.
I'm sorry.
You're sorry?
You're mine now.
You get out of this you work
for me on the street.
You go to jail
you'll work for me there.
I own you until
I say you're free.
You made a deal with me, David.
There's no way out now.
Donald.
I think she went out there.
It's okay, it's okay!
It's okay,
it's okay!
Just you and me now, David.
You and me.
Are you sure
this is going to work?
I am.
Thanks.
You're shaking.
I'm fine.
He's not.
I know.
Come on, finish tying him up.
I'm coming.
What?
Nothing.
Let's go, hurry it up.
Okay, okay.
Let's make sure you didn't
do any special favors
For your new boyfriend.
Are you hearing that?
Hear what?
Hear what?
That sound.
Okay, good.
Uh, the crew will be here soon.
When they get here you'll let
them in and bring them down.
And if you don't hurry back,
You know what happens
to your boyfriend.
Don't kill this man
on television, Donald.
It's not about him anymore,
David.
It's about that little girl.
It's about you.
Don't do this.
It's done.
No, it's not.
It doesn't have to be.
It's been done for years.
I've just been killing time.
I've had fun.
Don't get me wrong.
But I've always known
that this had to happen.
If you do this...
All of us are done.
You're not listening to me,
are you, David?
Please, Donald.
I can't go out like this.
My parents,
I need to prove it to them.
By stealing somebody's
television for drugs?
No, David.
You're done.
Kari's done.
Spot was done a long time ago.
Gee, thanks.
You're welcome.
This doesn't... you can just,
You can just...
I'll never get off meth.
None of us will.
I can.
I can do it.
I just need more time.
For my parents.
For my parents, Donald.
I need more time for them.
No.
David, time's up, David.
Your parents are dead.
You just want more time not to
look at why you're such a mess
In the first place.
I'm looking, David,
and I can see myself.
If I can do one good thing
for that little girl
Maybe what I see
won't be so bad.
Donald,
They might kill us, too.
Show time.
I know.
I know.
We're all downstairs.
You're running out of chances
to save yourself, you know?
I'm on it.
Prove it.
You're not cops, right?
No.
Good, good.
Oh, I'm Donald.
Charlie.
Entry team, stand by.
What's this?
It's the information
on the Tadeskys
The Lieutenant asked for.
The father's a diabetic?
I guess.
"Sodas and smiles."
Tell EMS to stand by.
Someone stop Charlie.
Is he okay?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
he's fine.
Okay.
We, uh, we ready to go?
Yeah.
Hey, if this is a live feed
how come there's no wires?
Sorry, what?
Entry team, move in!
I repeat!
Move in!
There should be wires
if it's a live feed, right?
Well...
Kari!
Down on the ground, now!
Drop that blade, Donald.
Drop it or I will shoot you.
What's it going to be?
I see her.
I see...
I sss...
Stay with him.
Charlie!
Charlie!
Are we clear?
Clear.
Where's the girl?
Mia?
How is he?
Okay.
Okay.
What's it like behind the scenes
at a hostage rescue?
Join me tonight at eleven
for my exclusive coverage.
I did it for the children!
I was trying to save
the children!
Hold up.
David Johnston.
My name is Lieutenant Tarelli.
You have the right
to remain silent.
Who authorized you to pose
as media personnel?
Well, it was a tactical
decision.
Don't you think you've
unfairly endanger reporters
And camera crew in the future?
So it's your belief that the
suspect Jonathan 'Spot' Williams
Was helpful to you
as the situation
Turned into a hostage scenario?
That's correct.
Mia.
Can you go get me my coat?
And you had no idea
about the DVDs.
The ones that caused
Donald Calpeki
To suspect
your husband
Of sexually assaulting
children?
I honestly had no idea.
Okay, that's all for now.
It's late.
We can follow up tomorrow if
we have any more questions.
Here's my card in case
you need anything.
I'm really sorry for your loss.
Thank you, Lieutenant.
Sure.
Thank you.
Good work, buddy.
Thanks.
You had your doubts at first.
Are we all right?
See you back at the station.
Get some sleep, sweetie.
You have one new message.
First message.
It's me.
Are you there?
Pick up, Jennifer.
I found your DVDs.
You're not even bothering
to hide them anymore.
You lied to me.
We can't keep moving like this.
I'm coming home and you are
either going to get help today
Or we're getting
a divorce
And I'll make sure
that you never see Mia...
Message erased.
