"I'm not gonna leave her just hanging there." "Where you gonna put her?" "I haven't thought that far ahead." "Funny how all this stuff starts happening right after you start working here." "Seems to me, you're the only one who knew where the cables are." "What are you doing?" "Trying to close her eyes." "That doesn't work, not until they're dead for a few hours." "Okay, you enter the building with a satchel." "You see a sign-in desk you wanna avoid." "Where do you go?" "Restroom." "Yep." "Got it." "Could those be used to rig an elevator?" "I have no idea, but he doesn't sign in and then he hides these?" "(SPEAKING IN SPANISH)" "What the hell is that?" "I wish he'd stop." "I don't even know your name." "I'm Ben." "I'm Sarah." "I'm Tony." "TONY:" "So where'd your claustrophobia go?" "BEN:" "Excuse me?" "I've never seen claustrophobia come and go like that." "You trying to say something?" "Then say it." "Yeah, yeah." "Okay, I'm saying I didn't do this, and I very much doubt that she did, so that leaves you." "I'm saying I think this claustrophobia thing..." "I think it's an act." "Yeah, I'm saying I think you're a liar." "(YELLING)" "Kill him, Ben!" "Kill him before he kills us!" "Kill him!" "Stop it!" "Stop!" "Stop it!" "Get us out!" "Get us out!" "Get us out!" "Back away from each other now!" "Get off!" "We're gonna keep you safe and here's how, everyone get to a corner and place your hands on the wall so everyone can see that you're not up to anything." "Go ahead." "Do it!" "You won't have to keep this up long." "The building is surrounded by police." "In a hypothetical conversation that I'm not really having, how would this story of yours end?" "They all die." "That's it?" "Yeah." "This is not your fault." "They made the choices that brought them here." "Hey." "You're gonna love this." "What have you got?" "She has a criminal record, too." "Three counts of blackmailing rich married men." "Now where this gets interesting, is couple of years ago, the arrests stopped." "Guess why." "Tell me." "Well, her name is Sarah Caraway." ""Caraway" Caraway?" "Yeah." "She married into the family." "So she shoplifted an heir." "Yeah, something like that, I guess." "What's she doing here?" "According to the sign-in sheet, she was gonna see a lawyer on 42 named Wayne Kazan." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "Hey, listen up!" "Quiet down!" "Quiet down!" "(CROWD CONTINUES CHATTERING)" "Hey, quiet!" "Philadelphia P. D!" "I'm looking for a Wayne Kazan." "Is there a Wayne Kazan down here?" "Yeah." "Excuse me." "Heads up." "Did you have a meeting today with a Sarah Caraway?" "I don't know." "Do you have a subpoena?" "Come on, you can tell me that much." "I might have." "Why?" "She was attacked." "Who has motive to hurt her?" "Well, you know I can't divulge personal information." "Come on, man." "Give me something." "Give me something to work with here." "I'm trying to save your client's life." "Come here." "I guess I'd do what you guys normally do and start with the person closest to her." "Thanks." "And just so you know, my specialty is forensic accounting." "Markowitz, get Mrs. Caraway's husband on the phone." "Should be okay now." "All right, get in there." "(ELECTRICITY CRACKLES)" "LUSTIG:" "I might have found the problem." "It's a bad wire." "Looks like it could be shorting out the circuits." "Okay." "Easy." "Easy." "That's it." "Yeah, I'm fine." "Vasquez, we're gonna need the large Target saw up here as fast as you can bring it." "MARKOWITZ:" "Look, we need two more on 21, okay, guys?" "Any luck getting hold of the husband?" "No, not yet." "I called his office and his secretary said he'd call me right back." "(CROWD SCREAMING)" "Back up!" "Heads up, heads up!" "Come on!" "Heads up!" "Back up!" "Move out of the way!" "Get away!" "Back up!" "What happened?" "Anybody see what happened?" "Medic!" "MAN:" "He came through the door." "Breathe." "Breathe." "Lustig." "Back away!" "Back away!" "Move back!" "Get everybody back." "Back away!" "Put your hands back on the wall." "It hurts." "Put your hands back up on that wall." "Or what?" "Just leave her alone." "She's in pain." "Don't you see what she's doing?" "Chick's a twist." "What are you talking about?" "Yeah, that's what we used to call people like her in the Marines." "Suddenly out of the blue, everybody would start fighting with each other." "Tempers would flare, people would start getting hurt." "But then we realized it's just the new guy telling everybody what other people said, stirring shit up where there wasn't any." "Until one night when we beat the living shit out of that twist." "And then, just like that, everything would go back to normal." "Are you threatening me?" "I just want you to know that I know." "Why don't you just shut up and keep your hands on the wall?" "MARKOWITZ: (OVER RADIO) Sarah Caraway's husband won't talk to us." "He lawyered up." "Her lawyer told me she's locating all his money." "I bet she's about to leave him and he might know it." "That would definitely give him motive to kill her." "But if he's trying to kill his wife, why are Jane Kowski and Vince McCormick dead?" "This is Matt with Caraway Security." "I need someone from maintenance to come down and shut the bay doors." "Sarah Caraway's husband doesn't own Caraway Security, does he?" "Meet me in the office!" "He's not done yet." "It's the Kensington sniper all over again." "RAMIREZ:" "What's a Kensington sniper?" "A few years ago, a guy shot four strangers and then his own wife, trying to make a personal killing look like a serial." "The guard works for the woman's husband." "I think the two victims were just a decoy." "The guard is gonna kill her." "I need to be in that elevator right now!" "Move!" "Right." "Please don't let him kill me, Ben." "BEN:" "I won't." "Come over here next to me and I'll keep you safe." "Don't worry." "Come on." "BOWDEN: (OVER INTERCOM) Hold up your cell phones." "Use the screens as flashlights." "Don't let it go dark in there." "Keep the light on each other." "Keep shining it all around the elevator." "(ALL EXCLAIM)" "(THUMPING SOUND)" "BEN:" "Don't you do it." "Don't you do it." "It just doesn't make any sense." "Oh, my God." "It is you." "Please, lady." "They can't hear you." "You don't have to pretend anymore." "We both know who did this." "Yeah, we do." "BOWDEN:" "Put down the glass and get your hands on the wall now!" "I should kill you right now." "I should kill you right now before you try anything else." "I should cut you right now." "And what'll be your defense?" "Huh?" ""She killed them all, so I had to kill her"?" "Yeah, something like that." "You take me down, they're pinning all of this on you and you know it." "A big, tough guy like yourself." "RAMIREZ:" "This is what he does." "He wants us to doubt everything." "Markowitz." "Markowitz?" "We're getting close, boss." "Hurry up!" "How would I do it?" "Do what?" "According to your story, how would I save them?" "There's no easy answer." "You're never gonna get these people to see themselves as they really are" "'cause it's the lies that we tell ourselves, they introduce us to him." "Look at what you're doing." "Don't think just because I'm a cop" "I don't know what you're going through right now." "I've been to hell." "Six months ago, I checked into a hotel and I nearly drank myself to death." "The thing is, when you're self-destructing, it looks like it's the world's fault." "Like you're dealt a series of shit hands, but that's not real." "Okay?" "It was all on me." "All of it." "I realized my only way out of hell was to take responsibility for what I had become." "You are responsible for this." "You realize that, don't you?" "Take responsibility for what you're doing." "Put down the glass." "Put down the glass." "I'll put this down if you do, too." "Okay?" "We'll call a truce." "BOWDEN:" "Good." "You're doing the right thing." "Sir, we found a woman who thinks she knows someone in the elevator." "Send her in." "No." "Get in there!" "Get in there!" "Now!" "FIREMAN:" "We're through!" "(SCREAMING)" "(WHEEZING)" "CHOl:" "This is the woman I was telling you..." "BOWDEN:" "Hold her outside!" "Tony." "(SARAH WHEEZING)" "You know him?" "He's my fiance." "He had a job interview here today and he didn't want to bring his tools in with him." "I was late picking them up." "Tony what?" "Janekowski." "Tony Janekowski." "Jane Kowski is Janekowski?" "He signed in." "Then who is..." "Come on, breathe." "Right there." "Come on, breathe." "Breathe!" "Come on, come on." "Please breathe." "(EXCLAIMING)" "(EXCLAIMING IN SPANISH)" "It's her!" "It's her." "Get in there already." "Who are you?" "OLD WOMAN:" "Today?" "I'm an old woman." "Grab her the moment you get in." "Are you ready for your turn, Anthony?" "(WHEEZING)" "(CAR ENGINE STARTING UP)" "TONY:" "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "The whores, the liars, the cheats and the deserters, it's always the same thing." "You know who I am now." "Yes?" "Take me." "OLD WOMAN:" "I intend to." "No, take me instead." "I deserve this." "You don't believe that." "Yes." "Yeah, I do." "I should never have left." "It's my fault." "It's all my fault." "You think you can make some kind of bargain?" "Take me instead." "Please." "Stop saying that!" "You think this will make you good?" "You're not good." "I know." "You think you can make up for the choices you made?" "No." "You think you can be forgiven?" "No." "Channel eight." "I killed a mother and her son on Bethlehem Pike five years ago." "Uh." "It was a hit-and-run and I was never caught." "I'm so sorry." "(SARAH WHEEZING)" "TONY:" "No." "Damn." "I really wanted you." "BOWDEN:" "Come on, come on, come on!" "Where is she?" "Where'd she go?" "(INAUDIBLE)" "(EXHALES)" "I'll take him in." "That was my family on Bethlehem Pike." "That was my son." "I've been waiting for this moment for five years." "All the things I'd say to you and what I'd do." "The thing is I forgive you." "RAMIREZ:" "After my mother would finish her story, she would always comfort us." ""Don't worry," she'd say." ""If the Devil is real, then God must be real, too.""
