Yeah, I'm sure.

How do I know you're telling the truth?

You can be the one that put me in this room!

I'm in exactly the same situation you're in.

Wrong. Wrong!

You've got one thing I don't: Information!

You know who did this!

Now you either tell me

what is really going on

or I'll cut you with this, you hear me?

I'll cut-

What?

It's a two-way mirror.

I can see you...

So that's what this is. Reality TV.

Don't look at me. I can't help you.

Can you hear me in there? Huh?

I'm having a blast.

This is the most fun I've had

without lubricant.

Make sure you're getting everything.

That's not going to do anything.

You just want to leave it running on us?

Well, you won't stop it.

That's why we can't cut

through these chains.

It's why you won't break that glass.

Every possible angle

has been pre-thought out by him.

You sound like you admire this prick.

To overcome something, you have

to understand what a perfect engine it is.

That's how you fight disease.

Now the tape told us to find an "X."

That "X" has to be somewhere in this room.

Help me find it.

How can you be the calm Doctor Guy

when your wife and kid are out there.

He's got them, too. He could be doing

anything to them right now.

Are you thinking about that?

I AM thinking about that.

I've been thinking

about the last thing I said to my daughter.

Diana, Honey, are you okay?

Diana, Honey, can you hear me?

Mommy?

Oh, what is it, sweet pea?

There's a man in my room.

Oh Honey, are you sure

he's not just hiding in your imagination?

He talked to me.

Okay, I'll come and check your room.

I want Daddy.

He'll get the scary man.

Alright, if you want. Come on.

Larry, sorry to bother you,

but your daughter had a bad dream again.

Just a minute.

She wants you to check her room.

Mmm hmm, mmm hmm, just gotta finish this paragraph.

You know what sweetie? I'll go check with you.

Nope! I'm done.

See? There's no one in your room.

There's no such thing as the bad man.

Now can you go to sleep?

I'm still scared.

You are?

Give me your tootsy.

Oh, what a big tootsy.

Remember this one?

"This little piggy went to market,

this little piggy stayed home,

this little piggy had roast beef,

this little piggy had none,

and this little piggy went "Weeee!"

all the way home!

I hate that thing.

Well I have to go to work, sweetheart.

You know what Daddy's job is like.

Now, come on.

Let's see.

Try and get some sleep now, okay?

You're not going to leave us,
