Original subtitles

Come on guys, we can still get out of here, we can still do this.

Like that ever works.

I cracked your code.

I cracked your code.

Amelia, if only that were true.

You see, you broke the rules.

You didn't play a move in time.

The others will get out and get fucked.

If only that were true, then this would all be such a noble sacrifice.

But you see, your death means nothing.

They all decided to rob me of my victory. They killed themselves.

All except one. I kind of like his style.

Mate, I'm sorry. I really didn't know that she was going to be able to do

that. I'm sorry.

You know what he's trying to do. Please, let me go. Let me go.

No, no, no.

Please, I haven't done anything. Please, no.

No, no, no.

Playing Luke again?

Yeah, he's pretty good.

maybe he has a nerd crush on you why would he he's just a chess friend

who i'm going to beat i play castle f1 to e1 he plays knight c6 to

e5 thinking he can tempt my queen but i'll play one d4 to e5 to take the

knight which he'll defend queen e7 to e5 he always attacks before he thinks

checkmate and foremost from there and i'll just nod and say Sure.

I am not watching that with you. Why not?

You'll spend half the film refusing to watch while asking me what's going on. I

haven't done that.

In a while.

A while being last week.

We watched Devil's Grove. It had someone's head getting all chopped up.

It was awesome. The way the blood spurted from the girl's neck. Oh look,

bedtime for you. And then the last girl with the coffin. Enough. Slowly closes

in as she screams and...

Sorry. Too late now.

Bedtime.

Do I look like I need a babysitter, Evelyn?

Call me that and die.

Sorry. I didn't mean that.

It's okay.

We all gotta go sometime. I'm just... sprinting for the line. Don't say that.

It's my job to take care of you. We take care of each other.

Now, about this bedtime thing... You're 14, and I promised the parents I'd make

sure you got sleep.

A little less sleep is not going to kill me any quicker.

Dani.

I'm not going anywhere.

But I do have this new Charlie D album that I have to listen to.

This is a negotiation?

Everything is a negotiation.

I feel that if you don't worry about when I go to sleep, I don't have to tell

the parents the girlfriend's coming over after I'm asleep.

Do I look okay?

What if someone expects a sex kitten and she gets this nun next door?

Hardly a nun.

You look great.

What if I freeze up where I don't react like I should or I say the wrong thing

or she wants me to do something and I don't get it?

I just... I want it to go well.

Because... You know I just screw things up.

Stop.

Zoe knows every quirk that makes you, you.

Yeah, but... You know.

It'll be fine.

And if she breaks your heart, I break her everything.

She slowly, painfully dies.

And you say the loveliest things.

Get gone.

I'm gonna stay up as late as I want and listen to music on a good old-fashioned

iPod. Parents are back tomorrow.

The fun ends.

Then enjoy while you can.

Say hi to Zoe for me.

You try to swim straight through the flood You and your dreams are drenched

in blood And I wanna save you You walk around

with quiet flair Your beauty lingers in the air And I am helpless to the

fragrance

Zoe? Very funny Zoe.

I'll play along.

Oh no, there's an intruder in my house.

Sure, she doesn't turn out to be my girlfriend.

That would be so crazy.

Oh, help me.

Help me.

What the hell? Get off me!

You hide,

do not come out until I come get you. No negotiation.

Call the police. I will.

But I need to know you're safely hidden, please.

Hey, um, you're okay.

Uh, um, you're okay.

I'm not gonna, um, okay.

Oh, that's just Sarah and Jack, okay? They're not gonna do anything. I mean,

they're fine.

I don't buy it, okay?

Not really my style.

I just want to untie you, okay? I'm not gonna hurt you.

I mean...

Last time I got in a fight, I hurt myself more than the other guy. Not even

sure if I hit the other guy.

Not even really sure if it was a guy or... Oh.

Sorry.

Oh. My nails?

Yeah. Did them myself.

I was having a really great night out last night.

Wasn't really planning on getting kidnapped.

I mean, who is?

Unless you're into that.

I mean, um...

Let me just... Sorry.

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

I'm sorry.

That's horrible for your skin.

Um... I'm Kira.

I'm Evie.

Okay?

Hi, Evie. Um... I was just... You know.

And they took my favorite dress as well, so, you know, I'll never forgive them.

Sure.

I got my clothes.

They took my clothes.

It's okay. They took my clothes.

Let me just untie you, okay? Let me just untie you.

Where's Danielle?

I don't think we... Who's Danielle?

Danielle?

Danielle!

No, please.

Okay, let me just... Your arms look like they really hurt. Okay, let me just

untie you and then we'll find whoever Danielle is, okay? Danielle!

For fuck's sake, watch it! Hey!

Where is she? We don't know, okay?

Danielle! Evie.

Evie, come on.

Get out of my way.

Sorry, Noah, she's not... Noah, she's... I'll go get her.

Good luck.

Thanks, I... Evie, please.

Come on.

Evie, just calm down, okay?

I've already tried the door.

Evie, calm down.

Evie, get down.

Evie, get down.

Please, please, please, please. It's okay. It's going to be okay.

Sure.

If you tried to help him, he would... He knows that you tried.

You did your best.

Herbert.

Yeah.

Can I... get untied now?

Oh. Oh, um... Now you want to get untied? Yeah.

Who's, um... Who's Danielle?

My sister.

She was with me.

I have to find her.

Has anyone tried the code lock?

Lucas did a couple of times.

It's probably a billion possible codes, though.

These locks are only four-digit codes. It's only 10,000 options.

Choice is second, three hours max, and we're out.

I can tell we weren't in the same math class.

Why would we be?

You don't go to my school.

Yeah.

Um... If you were freaking out too much before to hear me,

I'm Kira.

Yeah, you said.

Did you see who kidnapped us?

Um... No, I, um... I think he sparked my drink.

Last night, I... All I can remember is... dancing, going out to get some

air, and then nothing.

Yeah.

He was wearing a mask. Of course.

We should get back to the others.

I'd rather know why we're here.

Well, if I knew, you'd be the first to know, so come on.

Sorry. My head is pounding.

What the hell did he give us?

Yeah, I know.

It was like the worst hangover ever, right?

I wonder what time it is. How long we've been in here.

I've no idea.

Looks like morning light.

We've been trapped down in here maybe 10, 12 hours.

But where is here?

We're clearly in hell.

Wendy, meet Evie.

Evie? Meet Little Miss Sunshine?

Fuck you. You're not really my type, but I'll let you know should I get

desperate.

You seem weirdly cheerful.

And you just seem plain weird, you know. I'm not complaining.

How am I weird?

No, it's... Don't worry about it.

You're good.

Hey, I'm Noah, as in the ark.

Parents didn't want a child, so I was a natural disaster for them.

We've met.

You seem fine.

I'm Evie.

Any ideas what that's about?

There's a projector up there, and I'd say that's an impromptu screen. And that

looks like a control interface.

Guys, something's happening.

Whatever.

I don't do rules, whatever those are about.

What pieces?

Innocence? Who are we playing?

What innocence?

Pretty clear we're all gonna die.

Fuck that, I'm not dying.

Hey, excuse me, of course I do. Guys, guys, guys, get us out of here. No, no,

no.

Shut it!

It's a game of chess.

Whoever was playing this game was really bad.

They've lost half of the attacking pieces and... Which one of you is Lucas?

That'd be me.

You're in blue.

Vicky, yeah, in grey.

You're Sarah.

Yeah, so what? Easy, Sarah.

Sarah's in blue.

Jack, grey.

Noah, Vicky, Wendy, grey.

Here and I, both in red.

It's more like a cherry, but go on. What does it matter? You prefer Barbie pink?

It matters. The colours of the scrubs, it's the pieces.

She's right.

The big two are in red.

Cherry. Yeah, cherry.

And the strongest defenders are in dark blue.

And grey for the expendables.

What does expendable mean?

We sacrifice for somebody more important. Am I expendable?

No, or it's going to hurt you. Okay? I won't let them.

His name was Zack.

Who?

The guy who died.

What does that mean? This can't be good.

Rule one said move every five minutes.

No, no, no.

Screw that.

He can't make us do it.

That's what rule three was about.

Miss a move and then innocent dies. Maybe they have other people kept

somewhere else. And then what? We break a rule and someone dies?

Four minutes, 30 seconds left.

This is bullshit. It's fake.

It's like someone's playing a really bad joke on us. I mean, they can't make us

kill each other. Or ourselves.

Who's that?

Danielle. Is that my sister?

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

Three minutes 30.

Let her go. We'll play the game. Says who?

No way. How do we know that you're not a part of this? Come on. No, this isn't a

trick or something.

Think about it.

How convenient is it that you're the king and your sister is the only one

that's actually with the killer? Stop!

We'll do it.

Whoever was playing this game, they suck. I could move the queen from B2 to

B7. That's...

Weak move.

Maybe the pawn at G2. Shut the fuck up!

Look at this guy who lives and who dies!

I did.

I think, I think Evie's move was safe and I can't just let her sister die for

no reason. How do we even know that that is Evie's sister?

If Evie is really even her name.

She knows more than she is letting on and we all deserve to know.

Hey, this is fucking stupid.

We should be fighting that monster, not each other. Wait!

She's not the only one.

What is that?

It looks so familiar, but I can't put my finger on it.

That's how he picked us.

Those are our innocents. You what?

Each video window is someone like Danielle.

Someone we love that relies on us.

It's what rule three means.

Break a rule, an innocent dies.

Those are your innocents. You seem to know a lot more than we do. I'm just not

an idiot.

Come again, nutjob? Screw you, arsehole.

I'd claw your eyes out if I didn't want to break a fucking nail. Oh, yeah?

It's okay.

I'm just scared.

But Danielle nearly dying forced me to play a move.

So logically, it's going to have the same for each of you.

He killed Zach.

So, it's life or death.

Okay. I hate to ask the obvious, but I wouldn't be caught dead, wrong choice of

words, playing chess.

Does anyone know how to play?

No? I'm the king.

Makes sense.

I've been playing chess since I was little.

I'm so happy for you. I'm a pawn.

I'm expendable, my fucking nothing piece!

No, pawns can win a game if you use them right. Fuck it!

Okay, so... Can we win it from here?

There's some good tactics and a few... sacrifices.

Yeah, we can win it.

How many is a few?

Leave me.

Hey, we have a right to know. How many? About half of us.

Yeah, except for you, right? I didn't pick the pieces, but now I have to find

a way out of this, so cut me some slack.

I'm just scared, all right?

Maybe we can win if you let me think.

He's watching everything we do.

So please, take the tape off her mouth so she can breathe properly.

Why are you doing this?

What gives you the right to... Money.

She's all streaming on the dark web.

People pay to watch or bet on an endless list of options.

I just trapped a simple one.

Your sister's favourite to win the game.

I should be insulted, but I'm not.

She's right, though.

They do have a problem.

Your sister's not great under pressure, but she's a worthy opponent.

She's more than a match for you, you pathetic piece of shit.

Rita. Very bright.

Or very dark.

Go fuck yourself.

Because no one else will.

But be ashamed of yourself.

What's your problem?

If I see your face, I'm dead.

Yeah, we'll see how long that works out for you.

Just to make things interesting, everything that you see up there is

happening right beneath us.

Evie!

Evie! Yeah, like that ever works.

What you gonna do anyway?

Vicky's porn could have taken the bishop.

You're all too busy attacking me to notice.

But now I know what he'll do, and it means we're gonna lose someone.

We have four and a half minutes to decide which porn we sacrifice.

But I am not losing to a pathetic bully.

I will get my sister back.

There's a few moves we could play. Yeah, we didn't decide that you were in

charge. Can anyone actually play chess?

Has anyone been playing since they were little?

Come on, anyone want to volunteer?

You want this?

Go for it.

Good.

There's two moves we can play that will lose us a piece, but save us some time

before we have to lose another.

Losing a piece.

That's an interesting way of saying murdering someone if we don't play one

of those two moves. And Ted's throw out offenses in three moves, and we won't

last more than four or five after that. We all die. So you're just going to

sacrifice someone to save yourself? I can save half of us if you'll just trust

me. In four minutes, she kills one of us. I don't want to do this.

So which one of us dies?

Me.

I promised you.

You can't.

If I die, does that give everyone else more time?

Yeah, at least half an hour.

The other piece is Wendy, but that's... Not as good. It's only 15 minutes.

Well, I got us into this mess. I played that bad move.

I didn't have much better.

And you saved my sister's life.

Well, maybe I can save some more.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Alex?

Alex, that's my sister.

I've been looking after her since we lost our parents, and... Oh, God, she

has such bad anxiety. This is where she goes to calm down.

If they know where she goes every time, then they've been watching us for a

while.

Oh, my God.

She must be so worried. I was grabbing groceries when he grabbed me, and I had

to... That's his leverage.

We all have someone that relies on us.

The innocence in rule three.

First your sister, and now Alex.

So if I break the rules, Alex dies.

Okay.

Okay, so how are we gonna do it?

Am I meant to kill myself, or does one of you do it?

Is it gonna hurt? No one is going to die.

Don't you have someone you would do anything for?

Help me. How do we do this? I can't kill anyone. I'm a vegan.

Guys,

if we don't figure something out, Alex dies.

Poison.

How do you know?

I woke before all of you and I had a look around.

I found something.

It doesn't look like much, does it?

I can guess what's in them, but... Poison?

Like you said.

I'm staying with you.

Evie, win this thing.

Where is that? I have to know who they're threatening.

Is it my friend?

My nan?

She's gone.

It was... peaceful.

Jesus Christ.

We're not the first players.

All of these people... You better make her

sacrifice worth it, yeah?

What's your plan?

We need to find a way out.

Yeah, great start to a cracking plan.

And we need to get to work on that code lock.

That's your plan.

That's never gonna work.

The code lock, it'll take days.

We'll die of dehydration or boredom before we crack that thing.

I told you before, it only takes three hours max to crack.

There's 10 of the powerful options, which is 10,000. Three hours is 180

minutes, it's 10,800 seconds.

Code a second and we're out in three hours.

Random guesses have a 0.01% chance of success. These are our lives you're

talking about and you sound like some kind of emotionalist robot.

So what? We're supposed to start at four zeros and work our way upwards.

And what? We just hope?

Yes.

We have no way of recording guesses, so we might double up by mistake.

If we get through that door, we outnumber him so we can win the fight.

I know we're up against it, but we can win this.

Couldn't he have, um, taken Lucas's horse, man?

Yeah.

He knows he's got us, so why didn't he take it?

See, I'm learning.

It's more shit.

I'm proud of you.

Thanks. That was, like, the nicest thing you said to me the entire time.

You're killing innocent people!

Everybody's innocent.

Truth be told, though, I get paid well to do this.

Do I offend your delicate sensibilities?

Open your eyes.

Now.

Or I will go down there and I will gut Evie like a puppy.

Better, better.

Understand? Except for one thing.

What's that?

You won't kill Evie.

This is not a negotiation.

Everything is a negotiation.

And you won't break your own rules.

It's quite the gamble, isn't it?

Not really.

There's so much money involved, you won't risk it.

You know, there was some debate about picking Wendy as a victim.

I mean, would a depressed person really be interesting viewing?

But then we found out who she cared about.

And there was no doubt.

I always knew I wasn't going to live a long life, but... No.

No, I won't.

I decide when I die, not you.

I'm sorry, but... They cannot just run up to someone in broad daylight and kill

them. It's fake.

You want to bet their lives on it?

That's your parents' place.

If we break a rule, it could be any of our innocence.

Rule three doesn't say witchiness and dies every break rule just that one dies

That's my brother's place I'm not gonna let him die just because you

won't do it Well, if you want me dead, you're gonna have to inject me yourself

Get out of my way, Barbie. I have to do this.

We don't have to do it because we are not murderers. Any of our sheep has to

die.

I'm sorry, just... You really want Danielle to die

because of her?

Not like this.

Please, not like this.

Give me the needle.

I was 18.

They said that we weren't old enough, or mature enough, or good enough.

I wasn't good enough.

I got horrible, horrible postpartum depression.

I was. I was doing great.

Evie?

Come on.

You have to leave her.

She was so brave.

They both were.

They died to give us a chance.

Well, then we have to keep fighting for them.

I can't.

I can't do this.

You're the only one who can. No one else knows how to play this game.

I won't.

I murdered her, Kira.

I won't kill another.

We really don't have time for this, okay?

I did it all for this.

And I don't want it.

They're dead.

And if I don't get it right, I kill everyone.

In the end, it'll just be me.

Surrounded by those I murdered.

No, Evee.

Evee, come on, look at me. Look at me, okay?

Okay.

You can do it.

I know you can.

Where is she?

One of us should just do it.

What move do we play?

We're running out of time.

Lucas, if your knight takes the black knight, we gain a piece.

And then the queen takes me. That's not a good move.

I think moving Noah's pawn up on his smart up.

What about the king?

And look, we've got to do something. I don't know what to do.

Sarah, if we move your castle, no one gets hurt.

Yeah. All right, let's move Sarah's castle. It's safe.

All right.

Castle E1 to F1.

Move plane.

No. Donna, reset.

Shit, no, that's a terrible move. The Queen can now take Jack.

Where the fuck were you?

Sarah, please.

How bad is it?

If he moved the pawn, that would have bought us a few moves of respite.

More time to work on the door lock.

And now the king's in danger, too.

You mean you're in danger? If the king falls, everyone dies. You don't know

that.

You want to risk it?

Noah, Jack, Sarah, if Lucas is wrong, everyone dies, and a lot quicker.

No, I don't.

Just you.

Rule two, each piece taken dies.

We wouldn't have been taken. The board is cleared at the end of the game, so

the only way to stay on the board is to win.

Lucas, you might be right.

Then we keep following the plan.

You've just signed yourself another death warrant.

Jack or Sarah?

And once again, you're safe.

I mean, you could move Queen Kira, but you won't do that because she's

protecting you, and she is a powerful piece.

You're saving her for a counterattack, like always.

Now, unless one of you wants to do it, I'm on the code lock.

Someone let me know when he plays his move.

Evie.

Cut us some slack, Sarah.

She's trying for this.

Oh, I'm sorry.

i don't know okay all i know is that i trust her i saw her crying over a girl

she didn't even know

Nothing to say, little girl?

We were getting along so well.

Would you kill yourself to save your sister?

That's what places were there down there.

Money can't buy you happiness.

Maybe not, but it can buy you a better grade of misery.

It could buy you a new lung or two. I mean, you don't have much time left,

even if you did make it through this.

At least I lived life as a good person.

You know, in the last game I had to kill Amelia when she escaped and then the

rest of them decided to kill themselves so nobody got paid.

People I work for don't tolerate failure.

So I had to pick this group very, very carefully.

You know, like any good reality TV show.

With the viewers putting their money in, I think Evie and Lucas might actually be

worth it.

she moved you i don't know okay i've never played a game of chess in my life

when you untied her barbie was this the plan you two hatched this is madness we

don't have some plan to kill everyone and my name is kira yeah i bet you guys

think we're really stupid huh you're doing a great job of not hiding it you

okay yeah um i'm really enjoying this new exciting experience

Can I go home now, please?

Is this how you want to spend your last moments?

Arguing.

Showing that monster that he was right to a picture because you don't value

your own life.

Or theirs.

All those people we love and care about, what would they say?

They rely on us to keep them safe now more than ever.

But they like what they see.

I know Danielle would tell me to put my head out of my ass.

I don't want to hear her voice again.

More than anything else.

If you don't think I'm good enough to do this, fine.

You look each person you kill in the eye and tell them you're sorry.

You hold them while they die and hope for forgiveness.

You feel their bodies stop moving and know what you did.

You'll want that.

Go on.

Do it yourselves.

And as you make this decision, remind yourself that the two moves I haven't

played have cost us nearly an hour. And in that time, we might have cracked the

code.

You might already be free.

You're okay.

You're okay. I hate doing I know but it needs to be said um

What do we do if they decide to do it themselves? I trust you more than them.

I don't know Two minutes

left and Sarah doesn't look too happy with you talking to me

Sarah wants to take the queen, but then she gets taken, right?

If I die, does she live?

Will Sarah survive the game if you move me?

There's a few ways I can play it.

But honestly, it's 50-50 on which of you is the better move right now.

But if you do get taken, I don't know that I can promise that she'll survive

the game.

Our innocence...

My parents.

Sarah would never admit this, but she'd fight to the death to save them.

Too bad they never taught her how to close her mouth.

You're right.

Easy. I'm sorry, but she's a bitch.

You have no idea what she's been through.

And how would it change her for the world?

In one minute, we have to decide.

Don't wait.

We being Sarah and me.

This is something we decide for ourselves.

But no one has to be one of us. I just... I wanted to know what you

thought.

I'm sorry.

Move her to H1, then she can take the Black Queen.

It's a solid tactical move.

What did you do?

I couldn't let you die.

You know, we

never got to say our vows.

No.

It's better off with us.

It's sickness and health.

Till death do us apart.

Take care of mom and dad.

Wait,

wait, wait.

He hasn't played the move yet. He might not take you.

He will.

I don't want to sleep.

You did this.

You told him to do this. You told him it would save me. He would do anything for

me.

Answer me.

There's no answer that'll make it out of this.

Sarah, do you want him to die alone?

Sarah, if he had Lucas, Wendy had Evie, who does Jack have?

This is not over.

Jesus.

Are you okay?

No.

What about Sarah? She seems dangerous.

What can she do?

We're all trapped down here.

She has to figure out which pieces to sacrifice to win the game. What about

me?

Which list am I on?

Are you gonna hold me like you did Wendy as I die?

Stop. No, why?

Evie, I really, I just need to know why.

So you can hate me if I don't have the right answer.

You're one of the first people in my entire life not to treat me like I'm

some weirdo, robot, freak.

I can't.

I just can't.

No, just... No, just... Just so I can be prepared.

If you need it to.

Queen's the most powerful piece on the board.

Without you, we have no chance.

The hospital.

Is your innocent in the... Yeah.

Someone I care about.

Let's just leave it at that.

I guess there's still leverage over Sarah.

Wait.

There's nothing you can say.

You can't make it better.

Maybe not.

But I won't hide either.

You did this.

All of us and you did this.

No.

The monster who put us here did this.

We don't have a choice.

We don't because you're the one making all the choices for us.

To protect yourself.

Sarah, please.

I swear to you I'm doing the best I can.

The best you can.

The best you can.

The best you can!

My fiancé is dead!

Is that the best you can do?

But we can take the Black Queen now.

We can win this.

I told you, this is not over.

I can't believe this is happening.

I keep thinking we'll wake up and it will have been a weird dream.

Then I realized no nightmare could ever equal this.

This is real.

We're losing.

You said we can still win and I believe her.

Why?

Have you asked yourself why the king is conveniently the only one of us that can

play chess?

Maybe you're not a captive.

Maybe you're the one running the show.

That's insane.

What about Danielle?

What about her?

She's the only one actually with the killer.

I don't know why.

Maybe you're in it together.

Maybe you're just there to trick us into thinking our families are ridiculous

just because she appears to be.

You've got to be kidding me.

There were two kidnappers.

We wouldn't have lost to just one of them.

I swear.

Oh, I don't believe you.

I don't believe you.

You killed him.

And now it's your turn.

We have to stick together.

We're not together.

We never were.

We don't have time for this.

If I don't play the move, then someone else will.

Where's Evie? We need to make sure we make a good move.

We?

It's always what she wants, isn't it?

Not us.

She's trying.

So who?

So far she's just killed pawns. Does that mean I'm next? She hasn't moved you

yet either.

You're not killing any more of us!

It's time to decide, Kira.

Please.

Don't make this any harder than it already is.

We know that you mean well.

But it's over with Evie.

Us or her. We're just trying to get out of here.

You sure about her?

I'm... Not on anyone's side. We don't want to hurt you, Kira.

But if you leave us no choice...

Oh,

God.

No, this is wrong.

Evie was trying to help us. We were just trying to get out of here. I'm sorry

Queen a2 to b3 a couple moves time

when we have moved our pieces to safety Just be you and her It's your choice

Clearly, Noah, your request to make this easier on us was not heard.

Go on.

Let's get her.

Where is she?

Okay,

okay, Evie, come on. Come on, we need to do something, please. I need you. You

can do it. No one's coming to get me.

I've been here for hours. No one cares.

I care.

And I know Danielle cares.

Is it strong enough?

Yes, you are.

Yes, you are.

Look at you.

You're here, aren't you?

I thought Sarah had fucking killed you.

It feels like it.

I think they're out doing the co-lock, but I could guess they just don't want

to hang with the unpopular kids, right?

Anyway, you could do another speech and convince them to untie us.

I'm a bit worried about this.

My arm's hurting. I'm not really enjoying sitting on the floor.

I promised Wendy I would tell her boyfriend.

Her daughter.

We're all going to die.

But the whole board has changed.

How long was I out?

Oh, um... Like, two or three moves and I'll turn next, but... Well, their turn.

I don't think we have a say.

There's barely four plays left.

You need to tell them they're sorry.

Blame me, they already do. Not a chance.

Are you serious? Come on, Kira, you know what's coming. They'll move you to a

square that will kill you.

Play dumb, say it was all me. I'm also playing dumb, but no, no, not this time.

There's a move they can play as the queen that means you won't get taken,

please. No, I... That's not me, not anymore.

Last but not least.

She was my friend.

My best friend, actually.

until high school and I made friends really easily and they all thought she

was weird or they just made fun of her and I just fucking let them.

I never defended her and yet she never gave up on me. She invited me to her

18th and she wanted to rekindle the friendship and

I went because I just wanted a night out, right?

When she got into her car to drive home, she just, I guess she just thought she

was tired.

She passed out.

Smashed into a railway of a person.

They don't know if she's going to wake up.

She didn't know we had been spiking her drink.

The entire night.

We thought it was... We thought it was so funny.

It's all my fault.

It's all my fault.

I can't imagine how hard this is for you.

But dying here is not the answer. I'd rather die knowing I didn't abandon a

friend again.

Please.

No matter how new that friend is.

I guess that means we're best for life, right?

Thank you for trying.

Well, look who's awake.

Kira doesn't have to die. You'll get what you want moving her to D3, please.

Show you care.

But now you know how I feel. What can I do?

Nothing.

Castle H1 to H2.

Goodbye,

Kira.

It's okay.

No.

No, stop.

Don't make us suffer. Listen.

Had to have it your way. So this, this is on you.

She could get lucky and she could pass out, but it's the rules.

Each piece taken dies.

It's not my fault. I'm trying my best.

It's him. It's not me.

Please, please. You just don't get it, do you? You still haven't worked it out.

Sarah, would Jack want you to do this? Don't you dare say his name again.

Noah, this is not you.

Don't do that.

Stop that.

Stop it.

Word's gotten out. Game's a good one.

8,000 viewers with a respectable half a million bets.

I should do well.

You don't give up, do you?

I've fought against death my entire life.

I don't plan to lose to you.

My first memories are big words you wouldn't understand, like pulmonary

hypertension.

More blood tests than days in a year.

massive injections that turned me into a human pincushion, and daily CT scans

that still haven't found my brain.

I've died nearly a dozen times, and I'm still here.

This is not over.

Oh, it's over.

I've only got one more move left to play, and then the king's in the clear

for me to take.

Then you die.

But the rules... Do tell.

You can only kill someone out here if they don't play a move in there. That's

rule two.

Those are the rules of the game. Yeah, but what about when all the bets are

paid accounts are settled?

Then I can do whatever the hell I want Like you said you've seen my face

Let's make this interesting

Oh

Listen to me

I know you didn't want that to happen.

Don't let Noah listen to me.

Why? You saw what they just did.

Kira did nothing to hurt them.

They slaughtered her to punish me. Do you really think you're safe?

Look at the board, Noah.

There's only one thing between me and Checkmate.

You.

They moved their pieces out of the way, and the killer hasn't taken Lucas even

though he could. This is all a setup, and you're next.

What the hell? How did you do that?

I didn't do that. It was the killer.

He can see everything. He's manipulating you.

It's also the obvious next move if you want to lose a game.

You'd say anything.

Horns can only move one way.

You're in grey scrubs.

Just like Jack, Vicky, Wendy.

The Expendables.

You are an expendable.

They wouldn't.

Who's in the video, Noah?

Who's the old lady?

They don't have long to play the movie. You want to risk her?

That's my nan.

I've lived with her since I was two.

She does her gardening in the morning before it gets too hot.

I've been working two jobs so the bank wouldn't take her house.

The blood on your hands.

Kira didn't deserve to die.

So make it right.

Swear to me you'll save my life.

I'll do everything I can.

Hurry.

How do we beat them?

We have the element of surprise.

Go, we can't be here when they get back.

I'm gonna end this.

I didn't realize you knew how to play chess.

I'm a quick learner.

Whereas Evie... Oh, you've got to be

fucking kidding me.

Oh, look.

He's showing us your little sister on the big screen.

Oh, Noah.

Think about your grandmother.

She's breaking the rules.

You know what that means.

Okay, okay.

Don't hot-hot.

Say bye.

No, you can't. No negotiation.

Please, you don't want to do this. Oh, yeah? Now what's that?

The bets. The viewers.

Look at the numbers. It was 8,000 viewers, now 22,000, over a million in

bets.

It's new, exciting, different. They love it. If you kill me and end the game, you

lose a whole lot of money like last game.

28,000 viewers.

Over 2 million in bets.

I bet you passed out first.

Hear that?

That's the sound of your little sister.

Dying.

Wondering why you didn't save her.

She sounds like a pig being slaughtered.

Fuck, that hurt.

Now you've lost someone you love.

You killed your sister, Evie.

Just like you killed my Jack.

Just like my Jack.

My Jack died alone.

My Jack.

Jack.

Who do you think's gonna win that fight, Noah?

Look, you're a good guy.

You did what you thought was right.

We'll forgive you.

I swear... you will be safe.

You have to stop this hiding shit.

Swear to me you weren't going to sacrifice me to finish the game.

It's okay.

Evie is persuasive.

And she knows how to play chess.

I'm sure she made a very convincing argument as to why you would be next.

You wanted to do what was right.

What is good.

We call it people often do.

What? You're a good guy, Noah.

Nice guys finish last.

Only half the poison.

Might still be enough to kill you.

You see, it's both a paralytic and a neurotoxin, so you're going to either

pass out or asphyxiate.

I don't understand.

You killed Sarah.

I'm impressed.

To be honest, I thought I'd be having this conversation with her.

Where's Noah?

Died as he lived.

Unable to pick a side. The pathetic little shit.

You murderer.

Just like you.

How did it feel?

How did it feel?

Worked.

Taking her life, feeling her die. How did it feel?

I do have an antidote.

It's up to you if you get that.

Who are you?

A couple of times I thought you had figured it out.

Just like you consume Netflix.

YouTube, Instagram, fucking cat videos.

The dark web has an insatiable need for content. There are a dozen games going

on all over the globe. So many ways to kill.

No.

I picked you.

Playing Luke again?

Yeah, he's pretty good.

Maybe he has a nerd crush on you.

Why would he?

Luke.

You could move Queen Kira, but she is a powerful piece.

You're saving her for a counterattack, like always.

Short for Lucas.

Hardly subtle.

I really wish that you'd put up more of a fight.

So, we got everyone down here, and did anyone wonder how I untied myself

when no one else was able to?

Of course not.

Next trick, find an accomplice. You see, it takes two of us down here to make

sure that everyone understands how this works.

Vicky.

Research showed that Vicky would bargain for her life.

So I offered her a deal.

If you want to live, do what I say.

Miss a move and an innocent dies. Maybe they have some other people somewhere

else. So if I break the rules, Alex dies.

Am I meant to kill myself or does one of you do it?

Wait a second.

I told her exactly what to say and you believed every word.

Evie, win this thing.

No one questioned how I knew about the suicide needles.

But you killed her.

Do you think they fell for it?

Okay, so I just play dope whenever they come back in. Easy done for a big

payday. Yeah, maybe I should have asked for more.

There's more than two of you burning this.

All those people watching the innocent. That's just what it looked like.

Wendy was right.

It was all fake.

You didn't have to kill her.

You didn't have to kill her.

I shot all of those videos over the last few weeks. Because if you have too many

people involved, someone always has an attack of conscience.

It goes to the police.

You only need one real victim to convince everyone else that their loved

ones are in danger.

And it works best if it is the king's innocent.

Now your sister.

Yeah, she put up a fight.

I'm gonna kill you.

Of course you are.

Did you notice how Paul didn't take pieces when

he could, right? Because he runs this like a reality show.

Selective moves with selective pieces to create the heroes and to create the

villains. All to create an entertaining story.

All those tactical sacrifices and those people that you killed, they didn't

mean anything.

Then you throw someone in the mix to make it interesting.

Did you notice that I would stop you from playing a move just to let you play

it later anyway?

He'll be here soon to kill you.

Or to welcome you to the club.

I survived the last game.

Yeah.

We were losing.

No one knew what they were doing.

We made a suicide pact.

Some of them couldn't do it on their own, so I helped them.

She

took

three long...

Glorious minutes to die.

And I found out who I really was.

So Paul offered me a choice.

Become a game master.

Or die.

I'd sooner die.

Okay.

Then you will.

Still trying even though it's hopeless You know

It was so close with the codes as well another half an hour

you'd have been free If only they'd have listened to you

of course it was my job to make sure that they didn't Sadly the door

is still locked

What the hell?

Paul?

Paul?

Where are you, Paul?

Is that you, man?

Look, I know we didn't finish the game properly, per se, but she screwed it up,

yeah? So we had to kill them.

sure that everyone understands we're still good i saw the punters oh the

punters would have loved it hey

nobody

messes with my sister

i heard you die maybe you should listen a little harder next time

Danny, stop.

You don't want to do that.

Yes, I do.

You have a choice for your next move.

You can either kill yourself, or you'll starve to death. I'm gonna fucking kill

you! I'm gonna fucking kill you! I'm gonna kill you! Fuck you!

Want some oxygen?

Okay, getting better.

You didn't inject me with enough to kill me.

And to think I was gonna get your bedroom if you died first.

Hey, no, not funny. Always funny.

So, what are we gonna do?

That's creepy.

I want...

Now what are you doing?

Do you know how to set up a crypto wallet?

We can't.

Do you know how much a long transplant costs?
