Wail, Ian. I don't understand.
- The cops, they took Ellie. - But the police have her, right?
No, they're not real police, or if they are, they're being paid.
Move. Move.
They beat the shit out of me, they put Ellie in their car...
...and they drove away.
- So where is she? - I don't know.
- You don't know? - I don't know.
- I'm calling the police. - No. Don't do that. Look...
Look. I'm pulling up to your house, I'll be there in two seconds. Okay?
- Laura? - Ian?
Hey, Laura, I need you to listen to me. I...
Who's this?
Is this Chris? You Chris? Hi.
- If there's anything I can do... - Shut up. Got scissors?
- They still in the kitchen? - Wait. Ian.
Ian, what is going on?
I need you to cut these off me. Just cut.
Why can't we call the police?
- Because we can't trust them. - Any of them?
- No. - How is that even possible?
Does he really have to be here now?
Anything you say to me, you say to him.
- I need to talk to you. - Wait...
- Ian, listen. That's enough... - Please.
Are you completely insane?
- I am calling... Wait. - No. No. Don't call anyone.
- Give me the phone. - No, Ian.
- Give me the phone. - Stop, Ian.
What is wrong with you? Stop.
I need to show you something. All right?
You're the only person that can tell me something about this.
Go, Ellie.
- Where did you get that? - Don't know.
These are the people that took Ellie.
That's what I'm trying to tell you. Somebody's watching me. Watching her.
That's why I took her out of school. To keep her safe, but they caught up.
- Is this a client that's mad at you...? - No.
This guy. Who's this? Who is that right there?
One of Ellie's friend's dads.
- What's he got to do with this? - He's got a camera. Okay?
That footage will tell me who is shooting this.
And whoever's shooting this took our daughter. Laura
- I feel sick. - Here, sit down. Sit down. Sit down.
- No, wait. - Okay.
Okay. See this? See this guy right here?
This photo was left on my doorstep yesterday morning, right after you left.
It was... It was placed there with a gun.
And they want me to kill this man.
- Kill him? Who is he? - I don't know.
He's just some guy with a family. He's a dentist.
And if I don't kill him, they're gonna hurt Ellie.
They're gonna hurt Ellie.
This is..
These people are sick...
...and this is a game to them, and they're watching everything.
They've got cameras, and they're very connected.
Okay, and they're probably watching right now.
You sound like a crazy person.
I know.
I know, and I'm still trying to wrap my brain around all of this.
- Okay. This isn't happening... - No. This is happening.
They took our baby. They took our baby.
They took her. Look at me. This is happening.
Now what I need, I need his phone number...
...because I need to find out who shot this tape.
And whoever shot this tape has our daughter.
- Okay. - And I'll get her back, I promise you.
But we can't trust anybody. Okay? We can't trust anybody.
You've gotta let me do this. Okay? So, what I need...
...I need his phone number. Okay?
Okay-
Let me get it. Hang on.
I know I have it.
You broke my nose.
Need an attorney?
Here. Here it is.
You son of a bitch.
Wait.
Here.
You see this? See this?
Wait.
Don't.
Oh, so you do have it?
Great. That's great.
How's right now? Can I come over now?
I'm just... I'm really anxious to see her score her first goal.
Yeah. I know. I was just...
Her first goal on camera, is what I meant.
What's your address?
Thank you.
Okay, great. Great.
Yeah. I'll see you in a few.
Gotcha.
Armin? Hey, it's Ian Mitchell, your attorney. How you doing?
Good. It's good to hear.
Listen. I need a favour.
Now, under normal circumstances, I would never condone this.
But these are not normal circumstances.
Every school district in Los Angeles County...
...uses the same security company.
Now, that security company stores all this footage on the same server.
If I were to give you a time, date, and location...
...do you think you could hack into that server and rip some footage for me?
Yes.
You like to watch, huh?
Now I'm watching you.
You were a bad little girl last night.
Keeping Daddy up, and... Gotta go. Bye.
I need a favour.
You need a vacation.
You still friends with the sheriff deputy down in Long Beach?
- Why are we whispering? - You friends or not?
Yes. Yes. All right?
I need him to run that plate right there.
And an address in the next hour.
This is gonna be the biggest favour I ever ask of you.
Yeah. Let me just plug my phone back in.
Hey. You can't do that. Not until after I've left the room.
When was the last time you slept?
Are you gonna help me or not?
Yes. Jesus.
Yes, I'll help you.
Help... Suhil's a good dude. He'll hook you up.
You're welcome.
- Hey, did you get it? - Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
Hold on.
- Where the hell are you? - Nowhere.
Dude's name is "Osterman.” Chad Osterman.
He lives up in Sylmar.
6025 San Fernando Drive, apartment 2-F.
- Sixty twenty-five. - Suhil says the dude's done time too.
Multiple drug charges, coke, meth. You name it.
Is he violent?
Not on his rap sheet. Is that gunfire?
No.
You're welcome. Again.
Shit.
He has your daughter.
Get her back.
You get her back right now.
Who is it?
Frank. It's Frank.
From downstairs.
Hi, is Chad here?
We'll turn the music down. Sorry.
Wait. Wait. Wait. Actually... I actually need to talk to him.
So, if you could just...
Sorry. Bad time.
Chad.
Don't move. Don't do that.
Nobody moves. Neither one of you moves.
Hey, I'm not holding much. Look for yourself.
- Take what you want. - I'm not here to rob you. Where is she?
- What? - Don't you move.
Down.
Don't you do it. Down.
Down.
Are you gonna shoot me?
Yes. If you don't listen to me.
I don't think you're really gonna shoot me.
You just don't look like the type of guy that shoots a girl.
Actually, you don't look like the type of guy that shoots anyone.
So I'm just gonna go and let you two boys play.
- Sit the fuck down. - Okay. All right...
- Sit down. Sit down. - Okay. Okay.
Sorry. Hey, dude.
Hey. Hey. Come on. Hey.
Man, I don't know you, but I... I didn't do anything.
- Where is she? - I swear. I didn't do anything.
Where is she?
- My daughter, Ellie. Where is she? - I don't know, man.
I didn't take her. I don't deal with that kind of stuff.
- Who does? - I would never hurt anybody.
I swear to you. All right? Especially not a little girl.
Until you tell me who has her, I'll assume that it's you.
- Dude... - Eventually...
...I'm gonna start to do very bad things.
Okay. All right, dude. I swear to you,
I swear to you. I don't know anything. All right?
You videotaped her soccer game.
I saw it.
- I saw you. - Oh, man.
Oh, dude. That was just a job, man.
That's a job. All right? They just...
They give me an envelope, it has details inside, and my pay...
Who gives you an envelope?
I don't know. It's somebody different every time.
Just getting a cigarette.
Look, dude.
I swear to you. Okay?
I don't know anything.
I don't believe you.
Come on, man. You think they would tell me anything, huh?
A fucking junkie?
I mean, come on dude.
All they trust me to do is to do the job.
Just... I don't know what they do with the footage.
- When do you meet them next? - Tonight.
- Supposed to meet them later tonight. - Where?
I don't know. They send me a text.
- You're gonna take me with you. - No.
No. No, dude.
Come on, man. No. No. No.
They will... They will see us. All right?
They will see both of us, and they will kill both of us.
I'm gonna kill you right now if you don't.
So how much longer do you wanna live?
Hey, I called the cops, assholes.
You fired a gun, jerk-off.
I gotta make some changes.
Ian.
What an honor.
Please.
We saved you a seat.
Sit down.
You found us on your first hunt.
How exciting.
Isn't this exciting?
I'm excited.
How many have found us on their first hunt, two?
- I think it's two. - Only two.
Well, that's..
That's amazing work, Ian.
Seriously.
Where's my daughter?
You know, if you startle a deer before it dies...
...meat's ruined.
They tense up if you startle them.
And if they die like that?
It's unpleasant.
To say the least.
This one?
Never saw it coming.
I want her back.
- Excuse me? - I know you have her.
Yes.
We do.
Well...
...what do you think this is?
Just because you found us doesn't mean it's over.
You know the rules by now.
It's not over until you expire the target.
And let us not be mistaken.
It has to be you.
Fuck you. No.
That hurt my feelings.
No. I'm not gonna do it.
I think you will.
What do you think?
- Yes. - I think so.
See?
We're all counting on it.
Ellie?
Fuck.
Ellie?
Ellie? What the hell? Ellie, baby, get up.
- Daddy, I wanna go home. - I'm gonna get you out of there.
Back up. Back up. Get away from the door.
Back in the corner. Okay?
Get down, and close your eyes. Back up. Okay?
- No. No. No. - Daddy.
- No. Ellie. - Daddy.
- Ellie. - Daddy.
- No. Wait. No. - Daddy.
I want my daddy.
Daddy.
