Okay Paul, explain to me what's going on.

All right, all right. Okay.

All right, me and a convoy of other drivers

were delivering some kitchen supplies
to a community center.

And then some kids,
they started throwing rocks at the trucks.

And then, an IED went off up ahead
and it blew up one of the other trucks.

And then these guys,
they came out from behind the houses

and they started shooting everyone
right there on the street.

-Were you shot at?
-I don't know.

I don't know.
I was way in the back of the convoy.

I guess I got hit in the head
by one of the other...

By one of the rocks and I blacked out,
and that's the last thing that I remember.

And then I woke up here,
tied up, in a coffin.

-Who put you there?
-I guess whoever ambushed us.

-A bunch of kids?
-No. No, no, no, no, no.

Some kids, the kids,
they threw the rocks at us.

These guys, some Iraqis, some insurgents.
I don't fucking know.

They just... They popped out
and they started shooting everybody...

-right there on the street.
-I thought you said they didn't shoot at you.

They didn't! I don't know.
They shot them!

Sin you're gonna have to stop shouting.

I'm shouting
because you're not listening to me!

I need you to help me!

Okay. Okay, okay. I got it.

Can you trace the call?
GPS or something?

Why is it that they didn't shoot you?

I don't know. I have no idea.
They didn't. That's all I know.

What�s your social security number, Paul?

Why?

Why? Who cares?

I'm buried in the middle of the fucking desert,

who cares
what my social security number is?

I'm an American citizen.
Just send someone to find me.

United States Department of State.

I'm an American citizen, working in Iraq.
I've been taken hostage.

-I need to speak to someone right away.
-Where are you calling from, sir?

From Iraq. I'm a truck driver.
I work for CRT.
Crestin, Roland and Thomas.

My convoy was attacked
and I'm being held for ransom.

-Are the kidnappers with you?
-No. I'm buried somewhere.

-You're buried?
-Yeah. Yeah, in a coffin.

It's a wooden box, an old wooden coffin.

Did you try contacting the military out there?

They gave me a number to call,
a safety number.

-But the people took it.
-The people holding you hostage?

-Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
-I don't know.

-Hold on. Let me connect you...
-No, don't put me on hold! No!

-Rebecca Browning.
-Hello?

Yes, hello.
I was just informed of your situation.

Yeah, my situation.

I'm running out of time
and you guys keep putting me on hold.

-What the hell is wrong with you?
-I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry. Just help me.

I just have a few questions for you,
Mn Conroy.

-You've got to be kidding me.
-it's important that I get this information.

-It�ll help make a rescue attempt...
-Wait, wait. Hold on, hold on. Wait, wait.

-How do you know my name?
-I'm sorry?

My name, I didn't give it to you.
I didn't give it to the other guy either.

What's going on right now?

We received a call from a representative
at CRT. You left him a message?

-Yeah?
-He contacted us right away.

So if you know what the hell is going on,

then what have you done
to get me out of here?

Well, there 's little we can do
from Washington.

So that's it?
I'm just supposed to sit here and rot

because there's little you can do?

-No.
-Then what?

I need to know where you were
when your convoy was ambushed.

-In Baqubah, in the Diyala province.
-Okay.

And has contact been made
with the kidnappers?

Yeah. The guy says he wants $5 million
by 9:00 tonight.

Okay or else...

Or else he'll take me to SeaWorld.

-What the hell do you think, lady?
-We'll do everything we can.

So you'll pay them then? Yeah?

-No. That we can't do.
-Wait, wait. Why?

It�s the policy
of the United States government

to not negotiate with terrorists.

Not the policy of the
United States government?

Lady, come on!

You're sitting in an air conditioned office,
this is easy for you to say.

You're not the one stuck in a coffin,
buried in the goddamn desert!

-I understand your frustration...
-Frustration?

Lady, I'm going to fucking die in here.
Understand that?

-Hello?
-I'm here.

Then say something.
Tell me how you can get me out of here.

Okay.

What's the number on the phone
that you're calling from?

-I don't Know. Did it come up on your end?
-No. it's listed as unavailable.

Tell me this, can you remember a number?

Yeah. No. I have a... I have a pencil.

-Okay write this down.
-Okay, just a sec.

Okay. Go ahead.

-410...
-Yeah.

...195...

-5453.
-5453.

-Who's that?
-That's Dan Brenner

He's the commander of the hostage
working group over in Iraq.

Hostage working group?

Formed it in 2004
to deal with situations such as yours.

Situations.
I love how you keep calling it that.

-Did you write down the number?
-Yeah.

Good. Now, just hold on,
I 'll connect you with him now.

-He should be expecting you.
-What about the news? I wanna call them.

No, don't call the news.

-I repeat, do not contact the news.
-Why?

-It will only complicate things further..
-That's bullshit.

-You're just covering your own ass.
-No, I'm covering yours.

You don't go looking for something
you don't know is missing.

Everyone who needs to know
about this does.

-I need all the help I can get.
-We are running out of time, Paul.

That's why you need to contact Dan Brenner
right away.

Fine.

I'm transferring you now.

-Brenner
-Dan Brenner?

-ls this Paul Conroy?
-Yeah, yeah, it's me. It's Paul.

Paul, I was informed of what's going on.

I want you to know that we're already
working on trying to get you out of there.

Thank you, God.

I was told that we have until 9:00 p. m.
ls that right?

-That's what he said.
-All right.

That doesn't give us a whole lot of time.

And just so I have this right,
the kidnappers buried you in the ground?

Yeah. It's an old, wooden coffin.

Okay my guess is that
since you're able to get a cell signal,

-you're no more than a few feet underground.
-Yeah, I don't know. Maybe.

What about battery life?
How much does the phone have left?

-It's just less than half.
-Okay you have to conserve that battery.

Our best bet of finding you
by tracking your cell signal.

-ls the ringer set on a sound or vibrate?
-Vibrate.

I need you to press
and hold down the asterisk key

to change it to a ring tone.
It will use less power

-What about my Zippo?
-You have a lighter?

-Yeah.
-Use it to look around for markings,

logo, whatever you can find.
-Won�t it use up oxygen?

Don 't worry about that now.
Just try to find...

-It's just so dark in here without it.
-I understand, Paul.

Try to find anything in there that
might indicate where that coffin was made.

-You guys have to hurry.
-We're working as fast as we can, Paul.

Do you Know
if there were any other survivors?

-From your convoy?
-Yeah .

Still unclear at this point.

I just wanted to do right by my family.
That's all.

I didn't know
it was going to be like this out here.

I don't think any of us did.

-That's him. He's calling.
-The kidnapper?

-Yeah. What should I do?
-You know his number?

-Yeah.
-Give it to me.

-Okay. What about the call?
-Give me the number first.

-He's going to hang up.
-Take the call.

-I... Okay.
-That's okay, just take the call.

Hello! Hello.

Two hour; four minute.

-You have to give me more time.
-You talk to embassy?

-Give the money?
-Yeah, yeah. I talked to someone.

The government.
They said that they won't pay the money.

-No pay?
-No.

They said they don't negotiate with terrorists.

Terrorists? I am terrorist?

Yeah.
Yeah. You're a terrorist, you son of a bitch.

You terrified, so I am terrorist?

What did I ever do to you?

-Ever do?
-Yeah.

Yeah. I'm here because it's a job,
to make money.

-That's it.
-I have job until you come.

-Now my family have nothing.
-That's not my fault!

9/11 was not my fault, but you still here.
Saddam was not my fault, but you still here.

I told you, I'm only here to work.
To help rebuild.

Rebuild what you destroyed.

Stop! Stop! Just please, stop!
I'm just a guy. I'm just a truck driver. Okay?

I'm nobody that makes decisions
about anything.

I just want to go home.

Hello?

-You make video. Ransom video.
-Yeah, yeah!

I'll make a video.
If you let me go, I'll make a video.

No. You make video now.

-What? How?
-Use video on phone.

Near foot. You read note near foot in box.

-I don't see it.
-Near foot.

-Read note inside box.
-Okay, okay.

-If I make the video, you let me go?
-Only if we get money.

Nobody's going to pay $5 million for me.

We take less. One million, money.

If they pay, you'll let me go?

One million, money.

OW!

Thanks for calling the Conroys.
We're not home right now.

Please leave a message after the beep.
Thanks!

We�re sorry, your call
cannot be completed. Please, dial again.

Shit.

- Paul?
-Here's his number.

-Hold on. All right, go ahead.
-Okay. Hold on.

It's 07-902-24-921.

Okay. This is huge, Paul.
Unless they're using a cloned line,

we should be able to find
where this is coming from in minutes.

Okay. What about me?
Can you track my cell signal?

We 're having a lot of trouble with yours.

Seems to be an EDS line,

probably through
one of the Egyptian carriers.

What does that mean?

-That it's just not going to be easy.
-He wants me to make a ransom video.

No. Hold off for as long as you can.

If it gets me out of here, I'm making it.

The last thing we want
is for this to end up all over Al Jazeera.

-We'?
- Yes.

This can't turn into an international incident.

That's all you people care about, isn't it?
Don't you care about me?

-We do.
-What about me?

We do, Paul, we do. That's why we're here.

No, no, no, you don't!
You don't care about me.

You don't care about any of us.

I've had eight friends killed out here,
six of them today.

-Listen, Paul. You just...
-We don't have any guns, any armor.

-Nothing.
-That's because you're not soldiers.

Tell that to the people
who put me in this box!

-Paul, listen.
-Tell that to the people who shot my friends!

-We're doing the best we can.
-No, you're not! You're not!

-Okay, calm down.
-I've been out here nine months.

I know how it works. All you guys care about

is your secret plans
and your back-room politics.

You know, if I was a diplomat,

or a hostage working group leader,
or what the fuck your title is,

I'd be out of here by now.

But I'm not, so I'm just supposed to
sit in here, shut my mouth and die.

Okay, I need you to stay focused, Paul.

Fuck you, Dan.

Paul, listen to me.
Finding you is our primary concern.

Bottom line. And we 're searching for you

just as hard as we would be
for a four-star general,

so don't literally waste your breath
suggesting otherwise.

I can't... I can't...

Are you injured, Paul? Are you okay?

I don't know. Who are they?

The people who put me in here,
who are they?

They're just that, people.
No different from you and me.

-I'm not a terrorist.
-Neither are they.

How do you know?

If you were homeless, starving...
Actually I take that back.

If your family was homeless and starving,
what would you do for them?

-I wouldn't kill somebody.
-How can you be sure?

What difference does it make?

They're criminals, desperate ones at that.

They don't care about anything
other than getting the money.

So pay them, just pay them.

Trust me, if it was an option,
I would do that in a heartbeat.

How many others have there been?

-Since I got here?
-Yeah.

Dozens. Journalists, contractors, soldiers.

Dozens have been taken. it's one of
the only functioning businesses out here.

How many have you rescued?

-How many?
-Not many.

-Tell me their names.
-No.

-Any of them.
-Who?

Make me believe
that they really do matter to you.

That they really do matter to you.

-Mark White.
-Who was Mark White?

A kid from New Hampshire.
Twenty-six years old. Med student.

Came over here to help out local doctors.

What happened to him?

-Insurgents grabbed him.
-When?

About three weeks ago.

You remember his name?

I remember all their names.

Is he... Did he?

Yeah. Yeah, he's alive.

-Where is he now?
-Home.

Probably happy to be back at school.

I want to get out of here.

We found him. We�ll find you, too.

How?

We already have a solid lead
on the number you gave us.

-You do?
-Yeah. A unit's on its way over there now.

That's good.

-That feels good.
-Yeah.

What... What should I do in the meantime?

I know it's hard, but try to relax.

The more worked up you are,
the more air you're going to use.

Okay, I know.

I know. it's hard, 'cause I have anxiety.

I take pills for it.

-Do you have them with you?
-Yeah.

Good. Take them.

You need to preserve your oxygen level
any way you can.

Okay.

-ls your Zippo still lit?
-No, not anymore.

-All right. Good.
-I feel nauseous.

-You have to calm down.
-Okay.

And you need to save that battery.

We 're expecting some intel
in about 10 minutes.

-Call me back then.
-Okay.

-Just hang in there, Paul.
-I'm trying, okay.

-What?
- You make video?

-No.
-You make video!

-Let me out and I'll make it.
-No!

-You make video now.
-I can't read the paper.

-Make video now!
-I can't.

I don't know what you want me to say.
I can't read the paper.

You make video! Now!

I Fuck!

Okay, okay.
Come on, come on, come on.

Come on, come on, come on,

And I have been taken hostage
somewhere in Iraq.

I need $1 million by 9:00 tonight,

that I'm buried in.

I'm told that if the money is paid...

I'm told that if the money is paid,
I will be let go.

My name is Pamela Lutti.

I'm a food service worker at FOB Anaconda,

employed by Crestin, Roland and Thomas.

My captors' requests have gone unanswered.

Please. Please, don�t!

My name is Pamela Lutti.

-Please, don�t!

If you�re buried in a coffin,
where are you calling from?

The number you requested,

269-948-1998.

They're criminals,
desperate ones at that.

They don't care about anything
other than getting...

At CRT,
we work with our clients to provide...

Sin you're gonna
have to stop shouting.

I

Five million, money
tonight, 9:00 p. m., or you stay.

Finding you is our primary concern.
Bottom line.

I

Thanks for calling the Conroys.
We're not home right now.

Please, leave a message after the beep.
Thanks!

Why the hell did you make that video?

-It's all a bunch of lies.
-What is?

What are you talking about?

-All Of it.
-All Of What?

You don't give a shit about any of us.
We're nothing to you people.

We�re going to find you.I

Fuck off, Dan. You're babysitting.

Just gonna stay on the phone with me
until I die.

Okay.
You can�t start breaking on me now, Paul.

-You have to stay strong.
-They shot her and you didn't do anything.

We didn't even know
she'd been taken hostage.

-She sent three videos.
-Yeah. That's what they told her to say.

-Why?
-I don't know.

What do you know?

That your ransom video
already has 47,000 hits on YouTube.

And all the major networks are playing it,
including Al Jazeera.

So now your captors have no choice
but to follow through.

I found out the number to this phone.

-How?
-Who cares?

I figured it out and you didn�t. Why?

Because I didn't.

Just like you and every other person
on the planet,

there are some things I know,
and there are some things I don't.

Then how am I ever gonna get out of here?

Their signal was cloned, like we figured.
But we're close. Really close.

I'm near a mosque.

I heard a call to prayer over the PA.

Good. Good.
That means that we're in the right area.

You're...

You're nearby?

I spoke with soldiers from the 3rd ID
who were escorting your convoy.

They're alive?

Not all of them.
Both Bradley tanks were hit with IEDs.

The rest got caught in small arms fire

What the hell happened out there, Paul?

Paul?

--Wait.

Paul?

I

I

FUCK!

Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

--Come on.

Hello?

- Hello, who's there?
- ls this Paul Conroy?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. it's Paul. Who are you?

Paul, my name 's Alan Davenport.

I'm the Personnel Director
here at Crestin, Roland and Thomas.

Yeah, yeah. I left you a message.

You did. I also heard from Rebecca Browning
over at the State Department.

Are you able to speak
on the status of your situation?

It's worse. There was an explosion or
something, and the sand's coming through.

I probably have about half an hour
before it fills right up.

Slow down. You should try to stay calm.

0 CD 0 CD 0.
Q)

The hostage-takers, Dan Brenner
from the hostage working group...

Okay, Paul. I'm with you.
Now, how about the media?

I know your ransom video leaked,

but have you spoken directly to anyone
about what's going on?

-No. No, no, no, no.
-Good, good, good, good.

It needs to stay that way.

It's important we keep this situation
as contained as possible.

The situation is in a coffin!

I think it's pretty contained!
Help me! Help me!

What are you doing right now to help me?

I know you're upset.
But from what I've been told,

they're extremely close
to getting you out of there.

So hopefully it won't be too much longer

-Thank God.
-Yeah, thank God.

Now, I'm going to switch on a recorder
right now.

-What?
-Just a second.

This is Alan Davenport,

Personnel Director
at Crestin, Roland and Thomas Incorporated.

The date is October 23, 2006.

I'm speaking with Paul Conroy.

Mr Conroy are you aware
that I'm recording this conversation?

-What?
-Please answer the question.

-Shit.
-Mn Conroy?

Yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And do I have your permission to do so?

Why do you need my permission?
What's this about?

I need you to answer yes or no, please.

-Yes! Yes, all right?
-Thank you.

Now, Mr Conroy,
when were you hired by CRT?

I don't... Nine months ago.
Around January. What is all this?

I have your official date of hire
as January 4th.

-ls that correct?
-Who cares?

This is fucking crazy.

-January 4th. ls that correct?
-Yes!

And during your initial training,
before being sent to Iraq,

you were made aware of the dangers inherent
to the position for which you were hired.

You mean when I came down there to Dallas,
and you guys said that all of the trucks

would be armored
and have bulletproof glass?

You mean when you told us
that things were safer than ever over here?

Is that when...
Is that when I was made aware?

I need you to answer yes or no, please.

Yes.

During that time, did you also receive
and sign an employment contract with CRT,

which thoroughly explained company policy

as it pertained
to your specific terms of employment?

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I signed a bunch of things. Yeah.

-Yes or no?
-Yes! I signed the contract. Yes.

It's our understanding
that you were taken hostage in Iraq

two hours ago, is that also correct?

Yes! I think that�s a fair assessment of the situation,
you fucking dick.

What's the point of all this?

Our legal department requires that
we obtain a sworn affidavit from employees,

confirming that they understand the reasons
for their forced separation from the company.

As of this morning, your employment with
CRT was officially terminated.

Wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait. What?

It was brought to our attention
that you were engaging

in relations with a fellow CRT employee,
Pamela Lutti.

-No. No, no. Hold on, hold on.
-Stipulated in your contract

was a fraternization clause,
in which it was stated quite clearly

-that any relationship...
-Stop, stop, stop. Please.

...be it romantic or sexual in nature...

-We were just friends.
-. . . deemed inappropriate

by CRT senior officials
is grounds for immediate termination.

Hold on. Okay?
We were just friends. We were just friends.

-Our records indicate differently.
-Your records are wrong.

We 're also legally required to inform you

that because you were technically no longer

under the employ of CRT
at the time of your abduction,

we cannot be held accountable for any injury

that may befall upon you after
your official date and time of termination.

Therefore, in your case,
that includes this incident,

or any consequences that may result from it.

What about my insurance money?
My family's gonna need that money.

Given that you were alive
up until the time of your termination...

Don't do this.

-Do you understand everything?
-Don't do this!

Do you understand
everything you've been told, Mn Conroy?

Mn Conroy?

You're a piece of shit.

That concludes our interview
with Paul Conroy.

I am now turning off the recorder

You put me here.

I'm sorry.

Answer the phone.
Answer the phone.

Come on. Why won't you answer the phone?

Paul, is that you?

They're dead.

-How do you know that?
-I just do.

Three F-16s leveled parts of the city
a few minutes ago.

Yeah, I know.

Yeah, that was fun for me.

Did they know I was here?

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

Did they care?

These people that took me, if they're dead,

they can't tell you where I am.

We can still try to track down your signal.

You tried that already.

We can try again.

-It's over, isn't it?
-No.

Yeah.

What should I do?

I don't know.

It's weird.

What is?

Knowing.

I wish this could have gone differently Paul.

Yeah.

Me, too.

My name is Paul Steven Conroy.

Social security number, 048-32-1198.
Date of birth. 3/23/76.

This video will serve as my last will
and testament.

Um...

To my wife, Linda Conroy,

I leave you the $700 in my personal savings,

and whatever's left in my annuity.

To my son, Shane Conroy,

I don�t know

I don't have... My clothes.

I leave you my clothes,
which you will grow into.

Not these ones.

I don't really have...

I wish that I had more for you, but...

Maybe if I was a famous baseball player,
or some guy who wore a suit to work...

Then I'd have more.

But, you know, you can be
one of those people if you want. Um...

Yeah. Yeah.

Just promise me that when you get older
that you'll take good care of your mom.

And, I don't know.

You always try to do the right thing.

I love you very much, Shane.

Maybe I never said that enough. Maybe I did.
I don't know.

That probably means I didn't. And...

I'm sorry, Linda.
I should have listened to you.

You're not dead. Hello? Hello?

Where is money?

-I don't know.
-What don't know?

It's everywhere. Let me out of here,
and I promise you I will get you the money.

-You show blood.

-No.

-No, I'm not doing that.
-Yes!

-No.
-No?

No, that's right, no. You let me out of here,

and I'll out off my whole goddamn hand
if you want.

-You have wife?
-Yeah, I do.

And I want to see them again. Please, sir.

-Sir?
-Yes. Sir.

I say that out of respect to you.

Hastings, Michigan, USA.

That's my... Why did you say that?

You show blood, or they show blood.

No. You're nobody, all of you.

-No.

You're peasants.
You're fucking criminals, that's all.

You don't even know where Michigan is.
