Post by bunniefuu »

You should go to Joseph.

He'll protect you.

You're not safe anywhere.

Joseph!

DOGS BARKING AND
DISTANT SIRENS

Joseph!

TRAIN OVER TRACKS

BANGS ON DOOR Joseph!

Uh...

LOUD SPRAYING NOISE

Hey, Joseph.

What are you doing here?

Um, sorry to just...
turn up like this.

Susannah, you're bleeding.

Christ. What happened?

Better get that seen to.

What the f*ck you doing, trying
to break into this place?

I knew you wouldn't let me in.

Well, I thought I wasn't
allowed to see you again.

I know.

I'm sorry.

I need your help.

Are you taking the piss?

I'm in serious danger.

Is that right? I
was just shot at.

Someone's trying to k*ll me.

What do you want me to do about
it? Call the police? Hold that.

They can't be trusted.

Tell me something I don't know.

Thank you.

All right, you're
done. You can go now.

Wait.

I wouldn't have come.
Unless I was desperate.

I know that you don't
want to see me. Correct.

And that you probably hate me and
think that I... That you what?

That I let you down.

You don't think you did?

I had to be there for
you professionally.

You crossed the line.
And you abandoned me.

You were fixated on me.

I had to refer you
to a colleague.

I do feel bad that it
didn't... Stop! All right.

Let's be honest, you
don't give a f*ck.

You're just here because
you need something from me,

and I ain't helping you.

The way you were treated
was bloody awful.

The trauma of having k*lled people, the
guilt... I didn't choose to k*ll people.

The Marines taught me that. Yeah,
but you had to pull the trigger.

Then you come back from tour,
and they hang you out to dry.

So, we had to try and
pick up the pieces.

It was a disgrace. It was.

And my real mistake
was trusting you.

But we had to trust each other.

And I think we did.

But then your feelings
for me became...

I couldn't encourage that.

But I... I did care about you.

Just not in that way. Well, then just
get out my life and stop tormenting me!

This isn't about us.

Someone is after me.

And if I do nothing, a
young woman will die.

It's for her.

That's why I'm here,
begging for your help.

My daughter... is dead.

So, I have to save this
girl. Do you understand?

Christina's dead?

I'm so sorry.

What happened? They
said it was suicide.

Danny didn't believe it.

I thought he'd lost it
because of the grief.

But, Joseph, she was m*rder*d...

...by a man who
calls himself Jon,

and he's k*lled other girls.

God, I don't know... I
don't know what to say.

And they've got to Danny too.

How?

He's in a psych unit.
Did you hear? Yeah, I...

I didn't know the full story.

He fell off the roof
of the building.

A so-called accident.

And he's in intensive
care in a really bad way.

I knew you'd be upset to see me.

And I don't blame you.

But Danny sent me a message
that I had to go to you.

That's the only reason
I'm here, Joseph.

Cos I'm scared. I'm
really f*cking scared.

OK.

SHE SOBS

Tell me about the girl.

Uh...

She's an escort.

Sapphire, is what she goes by.

She works at an upmarket
hotel, run by a pimp.

And your connection?

She was good friends
with Christina.

And she... It's OK.

She saw her being m*rder*d.

And now the k*ller is after her
because he knows what she saw.

How can you be sure
it's her he's after?

Because this k*ller, Jon,
came to me for therapy.

The truth came out
during hypnosis.

That's f*cked. Yeah,
tell me about it.

It's like he sought me out.

Christ!

It makes my skin crawl
just to think about it.

Are the cops not all over it?

They don't want to know.

Or worse.

What do you mean?

The detective superintendent is
more interested in keeping me

quiet than finding out
who k*lled my daughter.

The truth is, he already
knows who k*lled her.

Who shot at you? Was
it police or hit men?

I don't know. But someone wants
me dead before I find Jon.

Susannah, think very carefully.

Is there any chance
you've been followed?

I don't know.

But they found me at the hotel,
and I... I don't know how.

OK.

We have to move very quickly.
How do I find the girl?

Um, I... I have her phone,
but the battery's dead.

Not a problem. Come on.

This Jon guy.

Is he a professional k*ller?
Yeah, that's what he said.

He talk about his methods?
He said he used to use a g*n

or a knife, but
now he prefers...

You don't have to.
No. You need to know.

He prefers to use chloroform
to subdue the girls

and then take them back to
his place to finish the job.

But he k*lled my
Christina in her own flat.

We'll find him.

And we'll put an end to this.

Where's his place? Well, he
said it was out in the sea,

but I... I don't know if
he meant that literally.

Stretch out your arms. What
for? I'll check you for bugs.

There are many ways
they can track you.

Let's at least eliminate
one of them... LOUD BEEP

Oh, no, that's
OK. It's my phone.

OK. Turn around.

MACHINE SQUEAKS

You find anything?
I don't think so.

Oh, your phone...

If you don't think they're
tracking your phone,

then you're more
naive than I thought.

Let's just hope we get
there before he does.

If he does get there first, well,
let's just hope he doesn't...

Our priorities, find the
girl and you lead her away.

If this Jon guy is there,
I'll handle him, OK?

OK.

It's just you and me. So, I'm
going to need you as my backup.

You understand what
that means? I think so.

Her phone's locked.

f*ck! We'll need a passcode.

No, it's OK. I think I know it.

OK.

I've located her earbuds. In
the centre of the Docklands.

Won't take us long to get there.

As long as they're
charged, we'll find her.

Right, let's get
a move on. Yeah.

TRAINS PASSING

Oh! Is that necessary? You've
just told me he's armed.

If something goes
wrong and I go down

and this Jon's got a g*n to the
girl's head, what you going to do?

I didn't come here
to learn how to k*ll.

You need to be able to ready a
g*n, point it and pull the trigger.

Yeah. You're trained
to do this. I'm not.

So, I'm going to train you now. I'm down, he's got
a g*n to the girl's head, what are you going to do?

sh**t him?

You prepared to do that?

Yes, yes. Homicide
adaption theory.

Anyone can k*ll under
the right circumstances.

Oh, f*ck your bullshit
academic theory, Susannah!

They're not going to help you
pull the trigger. Then, what is?

He m*rder*d Christina.

Think of that and... I... And?

I sh**t him! I sh**t him!

OK.

This is a magazine.

You push it all the way in,
then you grab the slide,

pull it all the way back in one
movement and let go. Got it?

OK. You have a go.

Uh, magazine...

Push it all the way in.

Good. Now, grab the
slide. Yeah. Oh...

It's OK. You just didn't
pull it back far enough.

No time to fiddle with it.
Just pull it back and let go.

OK.Hey! Yeah,
get down. g*nf*re

Oh! Get in the boat! Get down
there quick before they get away!

Go after them! ENGINE STARTS

b*llet PINGS

Do you think they'll follow us?

No, good luck with that.

I've only got one boat afloat.

Right, take the g*n.
Oh, OK. Take it. OK.

That lever there is a safety.

Take that off.

Now, point out into
the open water.

Go on, take aim.

Now, imagine that's Jon.

Aim slightly lower
than your target.

Now, pull the trigger.

Uh...

Pull the trigger.

I can't do it, OK!

He's destroyed you.

He's taken Christina.

If you want to stop this
guy, you might have to sh**t.

Like this.

g*nsh*t Oh!

Now, do it.

Do it! Argh! Pull the trigger!

Do it! g*nf*re

You OK?

Well, what if I can't?

You can.

Just think of Christina.

OK.

Here. Oh!

TAPPING ON KEYBOARD, BEEP

All right, she's
in there somewhere.

Show me a picture
of her. Oh, yeah.

There, that's her. That's
what she looks like. OK.

What's she doing in there?

Let's find out.

INDISTINCT CHATTER

INDISTINCT CHATTER

When I, first examined a
pattern for rationality,

something I found extreme that
there was no theory to deal with it.

However, one thing was clear,
it was, uh, it was extreme.

There was a pattern.

I created my own system of
psychology, utilising both

casual reading and a huge
amount of personal experience.

Uh, and it was this... It was
that pattern I used to help me

get through life.
Well, past middle age.

I discovered a book, Influence,

by a psychologist
called Bob Cialdini...

Where is she now? ..Who became
the super tenured hotshot

on our 2,000 student
faculty. She's on the move.

Very, um... Through there. He
wrote this book... Stick by me.

Do exactly as I say.

TECHNO MUSIC PLAYS

Hey...

...you OK?

Yeah.

Through there.

Sapphire's lighter.

And her earbuds?

sh*t! I've lost signal.

Either she knew, or Jon
knew that we were coming...

...which means we're
definitely being followed.

Go! Ah!

We're never going to
find her. Yes, we will.

Oh! CAR DOORS

They're back here somewhere.

Listen, I'm going to
go and give myself up.

As soon as they've arrested
me, you leg it. No.

We are in this together. If we
try and run, they'll get us both.

No! Susannah, you know the girl.

You can see this through.

I dragged you into this.

It should be me
giving myself up.

Come out slowly with
your hands in the air!

Let me do this for you.

Don't give up your
freedom for me, please.

You don't owe me anything.

Save the girl.

Joseph, thank you!

Come out now or we will use
force! I'm coming out now.

Keep your hands up.

Do you have a weapon?

I've got a g*n, but
it's not made ready.

Right. Take it out slowly
and place it on the ground.

You're too late.

She's gone.

I said put it on the ground!

Slowly...

g*nshots Uh, urgh!

SHE GASPS

Here, get him.

Come on, move!

Get rid. Let's go.

Oh, my God!

Ugh! No... No!

All right, let's go.

Go, go!
