- It is.

- Don't concern yourself.

All you need to know

is I need the money.

If you explain to me,

maybe I can help you.

I don't need help.

I need cash.

Get me out of here!

Get that thing away from me!

I want to go home.

Can't allow that to happen.

I'll help you get the money.

I won't press any charges.

Let me make your stay here

more comfortable.

I'll get you some more blankets.

I don't want any more

f***ing bedding!

I want to go home!

Why are you doing this?

If you're in

a difficult situation,

there are other ways.

Talk to me.

I could help you.

I'm not f***ing stupid.

I know what

you're trying to do here.

You want to talk

on a personal level

so I can see you as a person

and then we from some sort

of emotional connection.

But that's not happening.

You are nothing more to me

than the ticket

to solving my problems.

I don't want to lose

my Patience.

Let's keep this simple.

Are you okay?

I swear, when this is over

you'll never see my face again.

I want to go home.

I'm not meant to be here.

This isn't what I wanted.

Look, it's getting late.

Are you hungry?

I can heat up some soup

or you can put

something together.

I don't cook.

Okay, guess

we head upstairs now.

- But I need you to...

- I know.

All right.

Am I allowed to know your name?

It's frank.

This way.

There's some eggs and bacon

in the fridge.

An omelet?

Can I help with anything?

It's okay.

Have you heard anything?

From the agent?

No, not yet.

Why $123,000?

Because that's what I need.

Anything over that,

you can keep.

Well, I won't need it.

Do you have a whisk?

The drawer to your right.

That's a nice photo.

I'm sure you know

a lot about nice photos.

Look.

If you want, you can sleep

in my room tonight.

I'll stay on the couch.

You'll be more comfortable.

Thanks.

I'm gonna go get the bedding.

F***!

And you never left the house?

No.

He kept me locked up.

I tried to run away.

You tried to run away,

but what happened?

I wasn't fast enough.

I was so scared.

It's okay, Mimi.

Just take a minute.

Sarge, I need a word.

Sorry, it's urgent.

Please! Save me!

Please help me!

- Hey, what's wrong?

- Please help me!

It's okay. It's okay.

I've got you.

I've been kidnapped!

There's a man...

Okay! Calm down!

- I'll look after you.

- Can you call the cops?

- He has my phone, please.

- Shh. Wait a minute.

Do I know you?

You look familiar.

- My name is Mimi Wyatt.

- Mimi Wyatt? No way!

What is a pretty girl doing out

on her own in a place like this?

There are

some bad people around.

- Get your hands off me.

- I'll look after you.

- Get off me, get off me!

- Hey, don't... don't...

Don't scream.
