So I think you guys had a good first day.

Things are gonna get a little bit harder.

911, where is your emergency?

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Okay, okay, slow down, slow down.

Where are you?

Okay, where...?

I can't understand you.

What...? What mall?

What mall...? What mall are you at?

Okay, w...

No, where did he hit you?

He didn't hit me. He

almost hit me and then I...

Okay, where... Where is the vehicle?

I don't know where the vehicle is!

I'm in the trunk.

I'm, like, in the trunk!

Jordan. There's no location.

It's a disposable. No chip.

Ask her name.

What is your name?

What is your name?

Casey. Casey.

Casey. Okay, Casey, calm down, okay?

I'm in the trunk on my friend's phone.

- Why can't you just trace it?

- We're gonna try.

You're on a disposable phone,

so it might take us a little while.

What? You can't find me?

I just need you...

You can't find me?

No, no, you have to find me!

No. We will.

You have to find me, please!

Please! Please, I don't...

I don't wanna die.

Jordan. I don't know what to do.

She's freaking out.

What do I say?

Please, you have to find me.

I don't wanna die.

I don't know. What do I do?

Please, you have to help me.

You have to help me, this is like...

He's driving. Nobody's ever

come out of anything like this.

Hi. Casey. My name is Jordan.

Okay?

I'm here to help you, okay?

I was talking to another girl.

Can you put me on with her?

I'm here.

I'm gonna help you, okay?

Please, help me.

Casey, listen to me, sweetheart.

Okay, we are gonna...

Please, I don't wanna die.

Casey, you're not gonna die.

Breathe.

You've got it.

Okay.

Okay.

I don't wanna die.

Casey?

What?

We are gonna find you,

okay, honey?

You promise?

Do you promise you're gonna find me?

I can promise you this,

sweetheart, okay?

You've got the best team of people

in this whole city working to find you.

But in order for us to help you,

I need you to help me.

Now, can you do that, sweetheart?

Can you do that?

Okay. Okay.

Okay. Good girl, good girl.

Now, Casey, first thing I need you to do

is look inside that trunk

and see if you

can find a release lever.

Call the carrier, have them fax us

the E.C. forms so we can start the trace.

- Get rid of these kids.

- Okay.

Usually it glows in the dark.

Do you see that?

No, no, it doesn't even have

one of those.

Okay. Okay, it's okay, sweetheart.
