[taps]

[panicked breathing]

- [Amelia] Come on guys,

we can still get out of here.

We can still do this.

[suspenseful music playing]

I got it.

Guys, I got it, we're free.

Guys?

I got it.

Guys! We can do this, we can go.

Guys?

[footsteps]

[dramatic music]

[whimpering]

[grunts]

[coughs]

[gasps]

[blood trickling]

Please, don't.

Please stop.

- [Paul] 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.

[sniffles]

- The others will get out and you'll be fucked.

- Hmm, 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.

Well, except one.

I kind of like his style.

- [Caleb] Mate, I'm sorry.

I really... I-I really didn't know

that she was going to be able to do that.

I'm sorry.

[gurgles]

[dramatic music]

- [Jade] You know, what he's trying to do, please,

let me go, let me go!

- No, no, no, no, no.

Please, I haven't done anything, please.

No, no, no, no, no.

- [Danielle] Playing Luke again?

- [Evie] Yeah, he's pretty good.

- [Danielle] Maybe he has a nerd crush on you.

- Hmm, 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.

Meaning he can tempt my queen,

but I'll play pawn D4 to E5 to take the knight,

which he'll defend Queen E7 to E5.

He always attacks before he thinks.

Checkmate and four moves from there.

- And I'll just nod and say, sure.

I am not watching that with you.

- Why not?

- You 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... - Enough!

[trilling sound]

- Oh, my God.

Oh, please don't do it, please.

[TV clicks off]

- Sorry.

- Too late now.

- Bedtime.

- Do I look like I need a babysitter, Evelyn?

- Call me that and die.

[subtle music playing]

Sorry.

Didn't mean that.

- It's okay.

We all got to 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.

[subtle music continues]

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 gonna kill me any quicker.

- Dani.

[scoffs]

- 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 Zoe 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...

- Evie. - ...and I don't get it?

- Evie. - 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.

- 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.

[Kira] You're okay... ah...

Umm...You're okay.

I'm- I'm not gonna, um...

Okay.

Oh, that's- that's-

That's just Sarah and Jack, okay?

They're not gonna do anything.

I mean, they're fine.

I- I don't bite, 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...

I'm sorry.

I'm 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. [chuckle]

Trauma!

[ominous music]

Penny in the air.

[music intensifies]

- Oh, God.

Oh, God, my clothes.

- And the penny dropped. - They took my clothes.

- It's okay. Beats being naked.

- 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!

- Evie. No, please.

Okay, let me just...

Your arms are gonna get really hurt, okay?

Let me just untie you

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

- Danielle! - No, Evie, please!

- [Lucas] Fá*á*ks ake? Watch it!

- I have to find her. - [Sarah] Hey!

[Sarah] Calm down!

- Where is she?

- [Jack] We don't know, okay?

- Danielle!

- Evie, Evie, come on.

- No, no. - Get out of my way!

Sorry, Noah, she's not... Well, she's...

Um...

I'll- I'll go get her.

- [Noah] Good luck. - Thanks. I...

Oh!

Evie, please. Come on.

- Danielle!

Danielle!

Danielle!

- Evie, just calm down, okay?

- Let me out! - I've already tried the door.

Evie, calm down.

[banging] [man grunting]

[loud thuds, fight sound, men grunting]

Evie?

Get down.

[banging noise] [man grunting]

Evie, get down.

[grunts]

[punches]

[knife swishes and rips clothes]

[gasps in pain]

[knife slices throat]

[gasping and coughing]

- Evie...

Get away from him

- [Zach] Help. help.

- Oh, my god!

Oh, my...

[gasping, coughing]

Help!

Oh, my God.

Help!

Help!

Help! I need help!

- Please, help me. - It's okay. It's okay.

Please somebody.

[ominous music]

I promise, I'm not gonna let you.

Not again, not again, please.

Please, please, please.

It's okay, it's gonna be okay.

I got you!

It's okay.

No, no, no. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Please!

Please, I'm sorry.

No, I don't know what to do.

I don't know what to do.

Jack, no, no, no.

No.

Jack, come back!

Don't leave me.

Don't stop.

Come back.

Don't leave me.

No.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

I'm sorry, I don't know what to do.

I don't know...

[sobbing]

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.

I didn't mean to.

I didn't mean to.

I didn't mean to.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

[sobbing]

I didn't...

I didn't even know his name.

I didn't even...

And I left him.

I didn't...

I didn't even...

[trilling gasps]

- I'm sure...

sure...

you've tried to help him.

He would...

He knows that you tried.

Did your best.

[sobs and whimpers]

- You're a bit...

- 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 times.

It's probably a billion possible codes, though.

- These locks are only four digit codes,

it's only 10,000 options.

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

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

- Why would we be?

You don't go to my school.

- Yeah.

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 has sparked my drink.

Last night, I...

All I can remember is dancing,

going out to get some air, and then...

and then nothing.

You?

- He was wearing a mask.

- Of course.

We-We should get back to the others.

- I'd rather know why we're here.

- Oh, if I knew, you'd be the person I would tell.

Come on.

- Oh.

- Sorry.

My head is pounding.

How did he give us?

- Yeah, I know.

It's like the worst hangover ever, right?

- I wonder what time it is,

how long we've been in here.

- I have no idea.

- Looks like morning light.

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

But where is here?

- [Wendy] We're clearly in hell.

- Wendy, meet Evie.

Evie, meet little Miss Sunshine.

- [scoffs] 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.

[dark music]

[whirring]

Guys, something's happening.

- Whatever...

[scoffs]

I don't do rules. Whatever those are about.

- [Noah] What pieces?

- [Vicky] Innocents?

- [Sarah] Who are we playing?

- [Lucas] What innocent?

- [Wendy] Pretty clear we're all gonna die.

- [Kira] Fuck that, I'm not dying.

- [Kira] Hey, no, no, no.

[Kira] Hey, excuse me. Of course I do...

- [Lucas] Guys, guys, arguing is not gonna get us.

[panicking] [overlapping voices]

- 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...

[suspense music]

But which one of you is Lucas?

- That'd be me.

- You're in blue.

Vicky, yeah, in gray.

You're Sarah?

- Yeah, so what?

- Easy, Sarah.

- Sarah's in blue.

Jack gray.

Noah, Vicki, Wendy, gray.

Kira and I, both in red.

It's more like a cherry, but go on.

- Well, it doesn't matter.

You prefer Barbie pink?

- I...

- Well, it matters.

The colors of the scrubs, it's the pieces.

- [Noah] She's right.

[Noah] The big two are in red.

- [Kira] Cherry.

- Yeah, cherry.

And the strongest defenders are in dark blue.

- And gray for the expendables.

- [Vicky] What does expendable mean?

- We sacrifice for somebody more important.

- Am I... Am I expendable?

- No one is gonna hurt you, okay?

I won't let them.

[Paul, filtered] Move played.

- His name was Zach.

- Who?

- The guy who died.

- [Paul, filtered] Timer.

[Paul, filtered] Reset.

- [Noah] What does that mean?

- This can't be good.

- Rule one said move every 5 minutes.

- No, no, no. Screw that.

- He can't make us do it.

- That's what rule three was about.

- Miss a move and an 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 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.

[dramatic music rising in intensity]

Oh, God.

[whimpering]

Oh, God.

Then play...

- 3 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 sucked.

I could move the queen from B2 to B7.

That's a weak move.

Maybe the pawn at G2.

- Shut the fuck up!

- What the fuck?

- Stop stop! Get off of her!

- Get the fuck off!

- You don't get to decide who lives and who dies.

[groans]

[grunts]

- Get out of my way!

[suspenseful beat driven music]

[suspenseful beat driven music]

- [Paul, filtered] Move played.

[Paul, filtered] Timer reset.

- Who made the move?

- Who?

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.

That'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, asshole.

I'd claw your eyes out if I didn't wanna break a fucking nail.

- Oh, yeah? I'm sure you would.

- But it's okay.

He's just scared.

But Danielle nearly dying forced me to play a move.

So logically, it's gonna 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 place 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, I'm a fucking nothing piece.

- No, pawns can win a game if you use them right.

- Fuck off

- Okay, so...

Can we win it from here?

There are some good tactics and a few...

sacrifices.

Yeah, we can win it.

- How many is a few?

- Evie.

- 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.

[foreboding music building]

He's watching everything we do.

So please take the tape off her mouth

so she can breathe properly.

[gasping]

- Why are you doing this?

What gives you the right to...

- Money!

It's all streaming on the dark web.

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

I just track the simple ones.

Your sister's favorite to win the game.

I should be insulted, but I'm not.

She's right about that.

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.

- You're either very brave,

or very dumb.

- Go fuck yourself!

Because no one else will.

Cute...

- It'd be a shame to kill you too soon.

What's your problem?

- If I see your face, I'm dead.

- [chuckling]

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?

- [Evie] Vicki's pawn could have taken the bishop.

You're all too busy attacking me to notice.

And 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 pawn 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 tear through our defenses 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 4 minutes, she kills one of us.

- I don't want to do this.

- Which one of us dies?

Oh.

Me.

- I promised you, I...

- But you can't. You...

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.

- They know where she goes every time,

and 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... - That's his leverage.

We all have someone that relies on us.

- The innocents 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 gonna 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.

Please.

- Poison.

- How do you know?

- I woke before all of you

and I had a look around.

[Lucas] 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.

- Hey, Evie.

Win this thing.

- [Paul, filtered] Move played, timer reset.

- Where is that?

I have to know who they're threatening.

Is it my friend?

[Noah÷} My nan?

- [Paul, filtered] Move played. Timer reset.

- 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.

- We need to get to work on that code lock.

- That's your plan?

- That's never gonna work.

- The code lock, it will take days.

- We'll die of dehydration or boredom

before we crack that thing.

- I told you before it only takes 3 hours to crack

There's 10 to the power of 4 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 emotionless robot.

So what? We're just supposed to start at four zeros

and work our way upwards and...

[laugh] 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 out number him

so we can win the fight.

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

[upbeat, dark music]

- [Kira] Could he have taken Lucas' horseman?

- [Evie] Yeah.

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

- See, I'm learning.

Smart shit.

- I'm proud of you.

- Thanks. That was like the nicest thing

you said to me the entire time.

- [Danielle] You're killing innocent people.

- Nobody'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.

That's better.

Understand?

- Except for one thing.

- And 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.

So much money involved you wouldn't risk it.

- You know, there was some debate about

picking Wendy as a victim.

I mean, would a depressed person

be really be interesting viewing?

But then we found out who she cared about,

and there was no doubt.

[dark, melancholic music]

- I always knew I wasn't gonna 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?

- It's your parents' place.

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

- Rule three doesn't say which innocent dies

if we break the 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.

- [Lucas] Okay.

[ominous music] [driving beat]

- NO!

GET OFF!

No, don't.

[shrieking]

Get off!

- We have to do this before the time runs out!

- No, get back.

- Get the needle. - Get the fuck off me!

- Jack, help me!

- No! No!

No!

No!

[shrieking]

Get off!

Get off of me! - Shut up!

- What are you doing?

Get off her!

- Get off!

Get off!

[grunting]

- Get out of my way, Barbie,

I have to do this.

- We don't have to do it, we are not murderers.

- It could be any of ours, she has to die.

- I'm sorry. Just please.

- Get off!

Get off me!

- Get off!

- Do you want Danielle to die because of her?

- Not like this!

We are not like this!

- Give me the needle.

- I need to get home too!

[whimpering]

- You're not alone.

You always have them in your heart

and they'll always love you.

- Get off!

Stop! [shrieking]

Please! Don't do it.

- Evie, it's murder!

Get off!

Get away!

Get away!

No! Stop!

Please!

Don't do it!

- [filtered] Move played.

Timer reset.

- Get off her.

- Please.

- Get away!

[whimpering]

Tell me about them.

- What do you want?

Forgiveness?

- I don't know.

I just want to see my sister again.

- It's my baby's father.

I had him when I was 16.

Simon was 18.

They said that we weren't old enough.

Or mature enough, or good enough.

I wasn't good enough.

I got a horrible, horrible postpartum depression.

He was... He was still...

I was getting better...

She's going to be so pretty.

So pretty.

- [Kira] Okay.

Evie.

Come on, Evie, 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 didn't ask 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.

Evie?

Evie, come on.

Look at me. Look at me, okay?

Okay.

You can do it.

I know you can.

- [Sarah] 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 one is smarter.

- What about the king?

- 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.

- [Paul, filtered] Move played.

- [Evie] No.

- [Paul, filtered] Timer 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 you 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.

They don't.

Just you.

Rule two, each piece taken dies.

I mean, 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, she might be right.

- Then we keep following the plan.

- All right.

Well, you've just signed yourself another death warrant.

Jack or Sarah?

And once 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.

- [Kira] Cut her some slack, Sarah.

She's trying her best.

- [Sarah] Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't see her offering to die.

- [Kira] If she dies, we die.

- [Sarah] Yeah, of course she needs to.

- [Kira] I'm not siding with anything.

- [Lucas] Why didn't she move you?

- [Kira] 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.

[sobbing]

- Nothing to say, little girl?

We were getting along so well.

Would you, um...

Would you kill yourself to save your sister?

Swap places with her 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.

The viewers putting their money in.

I think Evie and Lucas might actually be worth it.

- [Lucas] Why hasn't she moved you?

- [Kira] I don't know, okay?

I've never played a game of chess in my life.

- [Sarah] When you untied her, Barbie,

was this a plan you two hatched?

- [Kira] This is madness.

We don't have some plan to kill everyone.

And my name is Kira, bitch.

- Yeah, I bet you guys think we're really stupid, huh?

- [Evie] 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

to have picked you

because you don't value your own life.

Or theirs.

Or those people we love and care about,

what would they say?

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

They like what they see.

I know Danielle would tell me to

put my head out of my ass.

I 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.

If you all 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 that.

- I know.

But it needed to be said.

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 count 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 innocents, they're 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.

- Kira, easy.

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

- You have no idea what she's been through.

And I wouldn't change it for the world.

In one minute, we have to decide.

No, wait.

We being Sarah and me.

This is something we decide for ourselves.

I know it 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.

- Yeah.

- [Paul, filtered] Move played.

[Paul, filtered] Timer reset.

- What did you do?

- I couldn't let you die.

You know, we never got to say our vows.

- No.

In sickness,

better or for worse,

in sickness and health,

- Till death do us apart.

- Take care of Mom and Dad.

Shh.

Shh. Shh.

- Wait, wait, wait.

No, no, no.

He hasn't played the move yet.

He might not take you.

- He will.

I don't want to stay and watch.

- 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 hurt less.

Sarah, do you want him to die alone?

- Sarah, Vicky had Lucas,

Wendy had Evie.

Who does Jack have?

Hmm?

- This is not over.

- Jesus.

Are you okay?

- No.

- What about Sarah? She seems dangerous.

- Now what can she do?

We're all trapped down here.

[gloomy music]

[Sarah sobbing]

Just have 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, I...

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 to do what you need to do.

- The Queen's the most powerful piece on the board.

Without you, we have no chance.

- Jack...

Jack.

[sobbing]

- The hospital.

Is your innocent in there?

- Yeah.

Someone I care about.

Let's just leave it at that.

- I guess there's still leverage over Sarah.

- Hey.

There's nothing you can say.

You can't make it better.

- Maybe not.

But I won't hide either.

[sobbing]

[sniffles] [sobbing]

You did this.

All of us knew 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...

[sobs and laugh]

The best you can.

The best you can!?

My fiance is dead!

Is that the best you can do?

- But we can take the Black Queen now.

We can win this.

[sobs]

- I told you this is not over.

[ominous music]

- I can't believe this is happening.

- I keep thinking we'll wake up

and all have been a weird dream.

- Then I realize no nightmare could ever equal this.

This is real.

- And we're losing.

- Evie said we can still win and I believe her.

- Why?

[Lucas] 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 wonder why.

Maybe you're in it together.

Maybe you're just there to trick us into thinking

our families are hurting 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 you.

- 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.

- [chukling]

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?

Do as what she wants, isn't it?

Not us.

- She's trying.

- For who?

So far she's just killed pawns.

Does that mean I'm next?

- She hasn't move you yet either...

- You're not killing any more of us!

[Evie coughing]

No more!

[groans] [thuds]

He was my life!

And you killed him!

- 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...

[Dragging Sounds]

[gasping]

- Oh, God.

No, this is wrong.

Evie was trying to help us.

We were trying to get out of her.

- Then I'm sorry.

Queen A2 to B3.

- [Paul, filtered] Move played.

- In a couple moves time,

when we have moved our pieces to safety...

- [Paul, filtered] Timer reset.

- ...it would just be you and her.

It's your choice.

[whimpering]

Clearly, Noah,

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

Go on, let's get her.

- [Evie] Where's Danielle?

Danielle?

Where is she?

[gasps]

- [Wendy, screaming] Please don't do it!

[sobbing]

[Wendy] It's murder

[grunts] [thuds]

- No more.

[Wendy] It's murder

- [Kira] Okay, okay.

[Kira] Evie, come on.

Come on, we need to do something, please.

I need you, you can do it.

- No one's going to get me.

I've been in for hours, no one cares.

- I care, and I know Danielle cares.

- I failed her.

I'm not strong enough.

I'm not 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 code lock.

But I could guess they just don't want to hang

with the unpopular kids, right?

Anyway, you could, um, um...

do another speech and convince them to untie us.

I'm a, um, bit worried about this.

And my arm's hurting

and I'm not really enjoying sitting on the floor.

- I promised Wendy I would tell her boyfriend...

her daughter.

- We're all gonna die.

- But the whole board has changed.

How long was I out?

- Oh, um, like two or three moves that's all.

I turned next, but...

Well, their turn.

I don't think we have a say.

- There's barely four plays left.

You need to tell them you're sorry.

Blame me, they already do.

Not a chance.

- 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.

The hospital...

She was my friend.

My best friend, actually.

We went into 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...

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,

but she passed out.

Smashed into a railway overpass.

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

Evie, she didn't know.

We had been spiking her drink the entire night.

We thought it was...

We thought it was so funny.

Evie.

Evie, it's all my fault.

It's all my fault. [sobbing]

- 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 their friend is...

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

Thank you...

for trying.

- Look who's awake.

- Kira doesn't have to die.

You'll get what you want moving out of D3, please.

- So you care?

Good.

Now you know how I feel.

- What can I do?

- Nothing.

Castle H1...

...to H2.

- [Paul, filtered] Move played.

- [Paul, filtered] Timer reset.

- [Paul, filtered] Move played.

- Goodbye, Kira.

[Paul, filtered] Timer Reset

- It's okay.

It's okay.

[slight choking] [struggling to breathe]

- No!

- No, stop! - This is on you.

- Don't, please don't make her suffer.

- You wouldn't listen, right?

Had to have it your way.

So this,

this is on you.

[Evie whimpering]

She could get lucky and she could pass out,

but it's the rules.

Each piece taken dies.

- Stop. [crying]

- [imitating Evie] It's not my fault

[imitating] I'm trying my best

[imitating] 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 ever again!

- Noah, this is not you.

Talk to them.

Stop them.

[gasping]

Stop it.

She's gone.

- Now she's gone.

[sobbing]

[chuckling]

- Words 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 turn 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 it moving, 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.

- [Noah mumbling] He made me do it.

He made me do it.

He...

- Noah.

Listen to me.

- He made me do it.

- I know you didn't want that to happen.

Dammit, 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 the game.

- You'd say anything.

- Pawns can only move one way.

You're in gray 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 move.

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.

- It's time to end this.

- [Paul, filtered] Move played.

- [Paul, filtered] Timer reset.

- [Paul, filtered] Move played.

- [Paul, filtered] King in checkmate.

- [Paul, filtered] Game complete.

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

- I'm a quick learner.

Whereas Evie?

Shit.

[Lucas]You've got to be fucking kidding me.

- Oh look,

[Sarah] he's showing us your little sister

on the big screen.

- [Lucas] Come on Noah.

Think about your grandmother.

You're breaking the rules.

- You know what that means.

Okay.

Okay.

Don't hurt her.

No.

No!

- Say bye.

- No, you can't.

- No negotiation.

- Please, you don't want to do this.

- Oh, yeah? Now why'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 will lose a whole lot of money like last game.

28,000 viewers over two million in bets.

[laughing]

- I bet you'll pass out first.

[gasping]

- [Sarah] Hear that?

[Sarah] That's the sound of your little sister.

[Sarah] Dying.

[Sarah] Wondering why you didn't save her.

[Sarah] She sounds like a pig being slaughtered.

- Fuck, that hurt.

- [Sarah] Now you've lost someone you love.

[Sarah] You killed your sister, Evie.

[Sarah] Just like you killed my Jack.

Just like my Jack.

My Jack died alone.

Hi Jack.

Jack.

- [screaming]

- Who do you think is going to 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.

[grunts] [thuds]

[grunting]

[thuds, smacks]

You have to stop this hiding shit.

- [Noah] swear to me you weren't gonna

sacrifice me to finish the game.

- Hey. Hey, hey.

It's okay.

Evie is persuasive.

She knows how to play chess.

I'm sure she made a very convincing argument

as to why you would be next.

You had to do what was right.

What is good.

Weak willed people often do.

- What? - You're a good guy, Noah.

[grunts]

Nice guys finish last.

[scuffles and grunts]

[smack]

[grunting]

[thud - grunt]

[groans]

- Ah!

- 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?

- What?

- 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?

- Couple 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.

- [Danielle] Playing Luke again?

- [Evie] Yeah, he's pretty good.

Maybe he has a nerd crush on you.

- Why would he?

Luke.

- You could move Queen Kira,

but she's a powerful piece.

You're saving her for a counterattack like always.

Short for Lucas.

- Hardly subtle.

I really wish that you 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?

[giggling]

Of course not.

[chuckling]

Next trick, find an accomplice.

You see, it takes two of us down here

to make sure that everyone understand how this works.

- Vicky.

- [Lucas] Research showed that Vicky.

would bargain for her life

[Lucas] So I offered her a deal.

If you want to live, do what I say.

- Mm-hmm.

- 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?

Poison?

- [Lucas] I told her exactly what to say,

and you believed every word.

- Evie, win this thing.

- No one questioned how I know about the suicide needles.

- But you killed her.

- Do you think they fell for it?

Okay, so I just play dead whenever they come back in.

- Easy done for a big payday.

- Yeah, maybe I should've asked for more.

[ominous music]

- There's more than two of you running this.

All those people watching the innocents.

- That's just what it looked like.

Wendy was right.

It was all fake.

[laugh]

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.

And goes to the police.

You only need one real victim

to convince everyone else

that their loved ones are in danger.

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

Now your sister.

[giggle]

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.

- Come on, guys.

We can still get out of here.

- [Lucas] Some of them couldn't do it on their own,

so I helped them.

- [Amelia] Guys, I got it. We're free.

[Amelia] Guys?

[shrieking]

- No! [grunting]

No!

- Guys?

[muffled screaming]

[muffled screaming]

- [Lucas] 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.

[laughing]

Still trying,

even though it's hopeless.

You know...

you were so close with the codes as well.

Another half an hour, you'd have been free.

[laughing]

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...

Look, I know we didn't finish the game properly,

Okay, but she screwed it up, yeah?

So we had to kill them.

[panicked breathing]

Um...

Sure that everyone understands,it's still good.

So the punters...

Oh, the punters would have loved it.

Paul?

Paul?

- Hey, bitch!

Nobody messes with my sister.

- I heard you die.

- Maybe you should listen a little harder next time.

[screams]

[knife swishes]

- Dani, stop!

You don't want to do that.

- Yes, I do.

[ominous music]

[grunting]

[groans]

[grunting continues]

[heavy breathing]

What the hell?

- 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... [screams]

I'm gonna kill you!

Fuck you!

[creepy music]

- Want some oxygen?

- I'm Okay.

Getting better.

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

- And to think, [chuckles]

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 won.

- No, what are you doing?

- Do you know how to set up a crypto wallet?

- We can't.
