Breaking In Page #3

---

I was banging the assistant.

It's not like I knew the guy.

You knew he stashed

$4 million cash in a safe

somewhere in this house.

Or are you not sure

about that, either?

How about we ask the kids?

You know where the safe is,

sweetheart?

SAM:
They never been up here.

I told you.

The old man didn't talk

to his family.

Clearly, you're

a f***ed-up tweaker

with inaccurate information,

so why don't you

- shut the f*** up.

- Enough. Enough!

(PANTING QUIETLY)

Come on, now.

I'm not gonna hurt ya.

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

(SCREAMS)

(GRUNTING)

- (SCREAMS)

- (GRUNTS)

(GRUNTING)

B*tch!

(SCREAMS)

(GASPING)

(SCREAMING)

- (GLASS CRACKLES)

- (PETER GROANS)

(PANTING)

Phone.

You have a phone?

EDDIE:

Situation has changed.

But the objective's the same.

We find the safe,

we get the money,

we get the f*** out.

What about them?

DUNCAN:

They seen our faces.

- That's a problem.

- What are you saying, man?

- That we should solve the problem.

- They're kids.

Jesus, Eddie, where the f***

did you find this guy?

I found him

the same place I found you,

doing three to five in county.

Only he wasn't on his knees

in a shower stall.

Look, this is

way beyond a break-in.

The minute we cut

those phone lines,

the clock started ticking.

If we don't get them

back online in 90 minutes,

the security company's

gonna call the police.

Yeah. You're right.

And Pete should've been

back by now.

Maybe we should bail.

Can we open the safe

without him?

No. We can't.

(ELECTRONIC CHIMING)

- What was that?

- The intercom.

Stay with the kids.

(ELECTRONIC CHIMING CONTINUES)

- (BEEP)

- (CHIMING STOPS)

Hello?

(OVER INTERCOM):

Hello?

Who is this?

SHAUN:

My name is Shaun Russell.

I don't care who you are or

what you're doing in my house.

Please just let my children go.

(WHISPERS):

Front gate.

(SIGHS) You weren't

supposed to be here, Shaun.

Sorry for that.

This has nothing to do

with you or your kids.

Then just let them go.

Okay? We'll just walk away.

No police.

No one will ever know.

I promise.

(SIGHS)

Can't do that, Shaun.

(CLICKS TONGUE)

But if you come back

to the house,

I will not hurt your family.

Then why'd your guy

try to kill me?

- Is he alive?

- I want to talk to my children.

I want to know

that they're okay.

(WHISPERS):
Not one word

about my guy, okay?

We're not gonna hurt your mom.

Just want to bring her back.

Mom?

Baby, are you okay?

Did they hurt you?

No.

Your brother?

He's okay.

(CRYING):

Mom, I want to go home.

I know. I know.

- Everything's gonna be okay.

- Mom! They're coming...

Wait, Jas!

Now... is my guy still alive?

SHAUN:

Yeah.

Good.

That's very good.

What do you want?
