(crickets chirp)

Daddy, you scared me!

I'm sorry, sweet pea.

I was just trying to see if you wanted anything from inside.

Well, it's not the best area. And, honey, I am so tired.

Please, can we just get home?

All right, I'll be quick. Do you want anything?

Mm-hmm, I'm fine, just hurry, please.

Can I get some candy?

(music continues)

- It's up to your mom. - Please, mom, please!

(sighs)

(chuckles)

You know, I can't say no to that face.

Fine! But one piece.

- All right? - All right, I'll be right back.

Hey, happy birthday, baby.

(smacking lips)

- Hurry. - Hmm.

(door closes)

(chuckles)

Look at the ring daddy bought me.

Wow.

(ominous music)

Give me all your money and no one gets hurt, hurry up!

(cashier) Okay, please don't hurt me.

- Give it to me, bitch! - (cashier) I'm trying...

- Hurry up! - All right, please.

(rattling)

(Bobby) Open the machine now. (cashier) Please.

- Hurry up. - Please, I'm trying.

(cashier) I'm trying, please.

(suspenseful music)

Hey, stop, man.

Hold it right there, man, don't move.

Son, son, son!

You-you don't want to do this, man.

You got your whole life ahead of you.

Just put the gun down.

Man, shut the fuck up, or I'll shoot your fucking head off!

Man, just-just give me the gun.

- (John) You still got time, man. - Stop moving.

(John) You can just, you can just walk out, man.

Just-just breathe.

It's all right, man, just give me the gun.

I know you ain't doing this because you want to...

You ain't no shit, man.

I've been right where you are, man.

It's all right, it's all right, give me the gun.

Baby! Baby! No, no, no, no! No, stay with me!

Help!

Stay with me! Stay with me, John! Stay with me!

- (Julia) Somebody help! - We need an ambulance!

It's an emergency.

A man's been shot!

Help!

Daddy!

(music continues)

(horns honking)

(horns honking)

Hi.

(indistinct chatter)

(sighs)

Right.

- Morning. - Morning.

Can't wait till that new campaign.

- Yeah, gotcha. - All right.

(sighs)

(phone buzzing)

(Ben on phone)Sof?

Ben, I told you not to call me while I was at work.

(Ben)Yeah, I just wanted to know

if we're still on for tonight.

Please, Sofia.

Okay, fine, just don't call me here.

(Ben)Uh, thank you, babes.

I promise you won't regret it.

Love you.

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday dear Sofia ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

(chuckles)

Make a wish.

(soft music)

(blows)

You better not have wasted it wishing for that promotion.

- We both know it's yours. - And we don't know that, Emily.

- I do, drinks after work. - No, I can't.

I've got so much work to do.

That campaign has to be done by the end of the month

or it won't be ready for a spring summer show.

The designer is insistent on the venue, so I'm desperately

trying to modernize this to appeal to our younger audience.

And this is why I know you'll be getting the promotion.

This company needs you.

You know all there is to know about this fashion shit.

Jason doesn't stand a chance.

And, well, let's be honest, neither do I.

So will you please just live a little and have some fun?

- Uh, Emily! - You only turn 35 once.

Twice in my case, but who's counting?

Okay, I'll go, but I can't stay for long.

Yay! You won't regret it.

Huh! I already do.

(chuckles)

(inhales sharply) Okay.

(Sofia) Change, which sure thing going on.

- I was like... - Oh, no.

Yeah, it has to an upgrade.

(laughs)

I can't believe you talked me into this.

I'm supposed to be working.

Jason is totally going to get that promotion.

Girl, you live fashion.

But I love that you don't think I'm any competition at all.

No, that's not what I mean.

It was a total boys club, I can't compete with that.

You could try beating Jason at his own game.

Uh, you mean ass-kissing Brian all day long?

No, I'd rather my work speak for itself.

I don't know, sometimes

you gotta play the game in order to win.

No! No more games.

This is a pivotal year for me.

The year I get what I'm owed.

That's my girl.

To getting what you're owed.

Bartender, can we get two shots, please?

Hmm. I'll be right back, wait two seconds, all right?

(chuckles)

(Emily) You cannot be serious.

This is why you can't stay out?

This is exactly why I don't tell you these things.

I'm just going there to collect my stuff

and give him a chance to speak.

You broke up with Ben for a reason.

And now you're going to let him in his sexy British accent

charm his way back in?

He came here from London on his own, okay?

He fell for the wrong person. I just felt sorry for him.

All right? I just want to give him a chance to explain.

You caught him cheating. What else do you need to hear out?

I'm not going back to him, I'm just doing this

so I can start my 35th year with no regrets.

Okay? Come on, it's my birthday.

You can't be mad at me at my birthday.

Trust me, I know what I'm doing.

(bright music)

(sighs) Are you sure you know what you're doing?

Yes, I promise.

I just don't want to see you get hurt again.

I know after your dad, it's hard for you.

Seriously, it's all good, I'm a big girl.

Thanks for the drinks and the ride.

- Oh! I know. - You're a good friend.

- Call me if you need anything. - I will.

- See you. - See you.

- You look cute, hmm. - Thanks, babe.

(instrumental music)

- Bye. - Bye.

(clears throat)

(knocking on door)

I'm so glad you came.

I wasn't going to.

I know.

(music continues)

(smacking lips)

(door closes)

(opera music)

Please sit.

(chair screeches)

(clears throat)

- Ben. - Hmm?

I've made egg fricili...

(liquid burbling)

with fresh cherry tomato...

Bolognese...

(liquid burbling)

and... basil.

(glass clinks)

(music continues)

You made spaghetti and meatballs.

Yeah... your favorite.

Come on.

You've come all this way.

It wasn't really that far.

Can we at least eat first?

And then we'll talk.

I promise.

After tonight, everything will be different.

So, how was your day?

We're not together, so let's not pretend like we are.

Okay.

(music continues)

(unnerving music)

(Sofia on voicemail)You've reached Sofia,

Leave me a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

(Emily) I am so mad

you haven't called me back already.

Which means you stayed there all night, didn't you?

I know you did.

And I need all the details, so you better be at work already.

That was my gynecologist.

(elevator bell dings)

All right, enough with the ghosting. Spill.

(unnerving music)

Have you seen Sofia?

No, I haven't heard from her since last night.

Well, it's not a great day for her to not bein the office.

The House of Bracken campaign presentation's on Friday.

She wouldn't miss that.

Well, if you hear from her, tell her better be spectacular.

These clients are important.

Can't mess up this account.

Will do.

Julia, it's Emily.

Have you seen Sofia?

(music continues)

Oh.

Okay.

(music continues)

Shit!

(camera shutter clicks)

(door opens)

What the hell happened, Ben? Where's Sofia?

Excuse me, ma'am, who are you?

I'm Emily Davis, Sofia's best friend.

Well, best friend, I'm detective-in-charge of case.

Right? Would you wait outside?

I'm not going anywhere until I find out

what's happened to my best friend.

- What did you do to her, Ben? - Oh, nothing! I didn't do...

Okay, Miss Davis, I need you to be quiet, and have a seat.

Okay? All right? Go.

(eerie music)

Go ahead with your story.

Um... it was, um...

It was Sofia's birthday yesterday.

So I cooked her dinner.

(tense music)

(soft music)

(clears throat)

What is this?

Open it.

(music continues)

(clears throat)

I've always considered you to be my good luck charm.

Ben, that is so...

So cheesy?

(chuckles)

No, but I mean, you are lucky to have me, but thank you.

(clears throat)

So...

how's your birthday?

It's been the best birthday ever.

(sultry music)

(inhales sharply)

(groans)

(ticking)

(eerie music)

(breathes shakily)

- Babes! - Sofia.

(heavy breaths)

What's wrong?

(gasping)

Whoa! Uh!

(computer voice)Ben, lie down on your stomach

with your head down.

Uh! Okay, okay.

Okay, okay.

(heavy breaths)

- I'm sorry. - Hmm.

(Ben) I'm sorry.

(computer voice)Tie his hands behind his back.

What? Okay, okay.

(Ben) No, no, no, no, no.

- (computer voice) Now. - Okay, okay.

(Ben) Okay, okay, okay.

(Sofia whimpers)

Please don't hurt us, please, please don't hurt us.

You can have wherever you want.

Okay.

(grunts)

(clamoring)

(thud)

(intense music)

(computer voice) Clasp your hands

and hold them out in front of you.

(breathes shakily)

- Okay, okay. - Yeah.

- No, no, no! - No, no, please!

No! No! No! No! No! No!

(Sofia screams)

Okay, okay, it's all right.

Look, okay, okay.

They're on! They're on! They're on!

(breathes shakily)

(computer voice)You're each going to be given

a liquid sedative.

Either you drink it voluntarily

or you'll be injected with it.

- (computer voice)Your choice. - No! No!

- No, no! - (Ben) Leave her alone!

Leave her alone!

(muffled cry)

No! Sofia!

- No! - (Ben) Sofia!

(groans)

You okay? Are you okay?

(computer voice) You will each be asked

for your Social Security number.

All your pass codes for your phone,

e-mail and account, everything.

If at any time I believe you are not being truthful,

your partner will be punished.

Okay.

(computer voice) We'll start with you though.

(Ben) Okay.

(computer voice)I need you to show all of your information.

My lock-box is in the top drawer of my desk in my office.

And the key is underneath the lamp.

All the information is in there.

Just please don't hurt us.

My laptop is on the desk.

Please.

Okay, wh-what, what are we gonna do?

It seems like all he wants is money.

So let's just do whatever he says

and give him whatever he wants.

(tense music)

(computer voice) What is your passcode?

It's Lillehammer. Just don't hurt her, please.

(tense music)

(computer voice) What is your social, Katie?

(ticks)

(distorted chatter)

(computer voice) What is your social, Katie?

I-I'm...

I'm not Katie, my... My-my name is Sofia.

(Ben) My-my ex is Katie.

That's my ex, this is Sofia.

But you can still take whatever I have.

Please, you take everything.

It's okay.

(whimpering)

- (intense music) - (groans)

My name is Sofia.

(in distorted voice) Sofia.

(Ben) Take whatever you want.

Take whatever you want please.

(stammering)

- You can have everything... - (Adrian) Fix it.

(Ben) How? How am I going to fix this?

(Adrian) Give me the 500,000 I planned to get from Katie.

(Ben) That's impossible! I don't have that kind of money.

(Adrian) Not my problem.

You have 48 hours, and I'm taking her as collateral.

No! No! Please, no, please.

(Adrian) She will not be hurt

as long as you hold up your end of the bargain.

Give me the money and I will return Sofia

completely unharmed.

If you contact the police...

Well, let's just say...

her fate is completely in your hands.

(Adrian) Deal with it. (Ben) Sof!

I'm gonna, I'm gonna fix this, Sofie.

(eerie music)

Sofia, I'm gonna fix this!

(car door shuts)

(groans)

(Adrian) Service Route 27.

Put the money under the sign.

Mention the ransom to the cops, she dies.

Don't do anything stupid.

Sofia's life is in your hands.

(pensive music)

(loud ticking)

(rapid ticking)

And then when I woke up, I phoned you guys.

(camera shutter clicks)

Even though he warned you not to?

(Ben) I-I just didn't know what else to do.

(Wright) You did the right thing.

Mr. Harris, I need you to come down

to the station to give a full statement.

- Wait, what? - Am I being arrested?

I just need a bit more information.

I-I-I'm just... This is insane!

I did not do anything.

You were the only one here.

(Ben) I was not the only one here.

I just wanna make sure that your story checks out.

It'll actually help us to find Sofia.

All right?

- Can I get some clothes? - Knock yourself out.

(suspenseful music)

(pensive music)

(music continues)

You're making a mistake, detective.

Ben would you never do this.

We'll have to wait and see.

How did you know Sofia was here?

I dropped her off.

I didn't know anything was wrong until I got to work

and she wasn't there.

So you're one of the last people who saw her.

I guess.

I'll have some questions for you as well.

(indistinct radio chatter)

(instrumental music)

(overlapping chatter)

(door creaks)

(camera shutter clicks)

(eerie music)

- Where were you that night? - I was at home.

Do you have any idea why anyone would do this to you?

(Katie) I have no idea.

Do you have any enemies?

No, none.

Or colleagues? Anybody you got beef with?

No, none at all.

- You sure? - Yeah, I'm positive.

Okay, well, we're just trying to cover all the bases you know,

make sure that, you know, we don't miss anything out.

- Is that okay? - No, no, no.

- I completely understand, yeah. - Yeah?

Okay.

(instrumental music)

(clicks)

- Thank you. - He's waiting for you.

Okay, all right.

(sighs)

- Hey. - (Ben) Hey.

(deep breath)

So your phone, what happened to it?

It's-it's broke.

I can see that.

I wanna know who broke it.

I don't fucking know, it's the guy who took Sofia.

(sniffles)

Spoke to your ex.

Why?

Figured I should speak to the intended target.

That is what you said, isn't it?

- They wanted Katie. - Yeah, yeah.

I need you to start telling me the truth, Ben.

I am telling you the truth.

Katie told me something you conveniently left out.

(pensive music)

Sofia... caught you cheating.

Uh, that's not what happened.

(inhales sharply)

(tapping)

- Pretty damning. - I can explain.

(Wright) We also found blood in the house.

I'm willing to bet it comes back as Sofia's.

You, you don't think I would hurt her?

I think you're the only person who knows where Sofia is.

(music continues)

I...

(inhales sharply)

I have no idea.

(tense music)

(gasps)

(tense music)

(grunts)

(sighs)

(muffled yells)

(suspenseful music)

(breathes shakily)

(Adrian) All right, okay, you stay there.

You move, you die.

(whimpering)

(door thuds)

(music continues)

(explodes)

(glass shatters)

(fire crackling)

(door opens)

(engine revving)

I'm-I'm telling you, you have this all wrong.

(mellow music)

Katie and I, we did meet up.

But it's not what you think.

This is a big misunderstanding.

Pictures don't lie, Ben.

But it don't tell you the full story either.

(soft music)

(Katie) I knew you'd come.

- Katie, I am... - No, me first.

I made the biggest mistake in my life when I left you.

And I know that now.

You have no idea how much I wanted to hear you say that.

But that was six months ago.

I'm with Sofia now.

She was just a rebound.

You asked me to be your wife.

Now I know that was a mistake.

(music continues)

Sofia doesn't make me doubt myself.

She doesn't make me feel like I'm not good enough

for her or her family.

I can be myself with Sofia.

I came here today to say goodbye...

- (dramatic music) - For good.

(scoffs) Katie!

Goodbye, Katie.

(Ben)Katie clearly staged these pictures

and then sent them to Sofia.

I invited Sofia over to explain and she believed me.

We made-up, this is,

this is not relevant, it's a distraction.

That's why I didn't bring it up.

What about the blood stain?

(stammering)

Or the color in your hand?

That-that's from the zip tie.

As soon as Sofia zip tied me.

Oh, oh, oh, so, Sofia... zip tied you?

Are you serious?

I-I-I'm the one who called you, remember?

I am, I am telling you the truth.

I would never hurt Sofia.

So you wouldn't have a problem taking a lie detector test.

Huh? Hmm?

- Hmm? - Of course not.

(tense music)

(engine rumbling)

(door opens)

(Adrian grunts)

(unnerving music)

(heavy breaths)

(door creaks)

(grunts)

(groans)

(clinking)

(door slams)

(heavy breaths)

(Adrian) I will remove the gag if you promise to behave.

(heavy breaths)

(breathes shakily)

(music continues)

- What are we gonna do? - (Adrian) We wait.

(breathes shakily)

And you hope your boyfriend doesn't do anything stupid.

(whimpering)

(whirring)

(Wright) What is your name?

Ben Lawrence Harris.

- When is your birthday? - (Ben) 11th of January.

- Where were you born? - London, Hackney.

(Wright) Currently reside in the United States?

Yes.

Have you met with your ex-fiance this last year?

Yes.

Were you dating Sofia Rose when you last met Katie?

Yes.

(Wright) Was your last encounter with Katie

in the park a final meeting?

Yes.

(Wright) Have you met with Katie since then?

Did you cheat on Sofia?

- (whirring) - No.

Do you know where Sofia is?

No.

Did you have anything to do with Sofia's disappearance?

(tense music)

No.

(paper rustling)

(unnerving music)

(door opens)

(door closes)

What?

I thought you'd agree to tell the truth, Ben.

I swear to you, I'm-I'm telling the truth.

And every second you waste not believing me

is another second that Sofia's life is in danger.

Oh, we will find her.

With or without your help.

(music continues)

Take him back to holding.

(eerie music)

(rustling)

(music continues)

(keypad beeping)

(Ben on voicemail)Hey, you've reached Ben, leave a message.

(thud)

(shattering)

(breathes shakily)

I need to use the restroom.

(breathes shakily)

Please.

(Adrian exhales sharply)

(rattling)

(Sofia groans)

(tense music)

(door opens)

Through the door.

(breathes shakily)

It's right in front of you.

Stop there, turn around.

(rattles)

You try anything, it'll be the last fucking

pee break you ever take.

You understand me?

Hey, turn around.

(inhales sharply)

(door closes)

(sighs)

(tense music)

(knocking on door)

Come on, time's up.

I just need to wash my hands.

(rattling)

(toilet flushing)

(squeaks)

(music continues)

Okay, I'm coming in.

- Didn't see anything I swear! - Uh!

All right, now don't put it fucking on!

You've seen me now, fuck!

Come on!

Get on the fucking bed!

(indistinct chatter)

And so now that I have 10,000 square feet

I got plenty of space to spread out, so it's a good space.

(Don) Late last night, 35-year-old

ad-exec Sofia Rose disappeared in what police call...

Late last night when police...

(clears throat)

Late last night, 35-year-old ad-exec

Sofia Rose disappeared in what police describe

as a violent kidnapping.

Sofia's friends and family are worried about her

and hope for her safe return.

(camera shutter clicks)

- Emily, Emily. - (clamoring)

When was the last time that you saw Sofia?

(camera shutter clicks)

Um, last night.

It was her birthday, so I, um, took her for a drink.

The last thing she said to me was that I was a good friend.

And then she hugged me goodbye.

And if you could talk to Sofia

or the people who took her, what would you say?

Sofia, if you can hear me, please stay strong.

We love you and we'll never stop looking for you.

(gasps)

And to whoever took her...

please just bring her home safe.

(sobbing)

If you or anyone you know has any information

of the whereabouts of Sofia Rose,

please contact our tip line or the e-mail address

or phone number at the bottom of your screen.

I-I flipped the first part in the beginning.

- Let's do it again. - I-I-I think it's good.

No, let's go again, can you show me the playback?

Hey.

(indistinct chatter)

I'm really sorry about your friend Sofia.

Thanks.

Look, I-I know you feel helpless right now,

but you're doing all you can, okay?

Oh! Okay.

(crying)

- It's okay. - Jessica, we got to go.

Yeah, um, I just...

Hey, have you got somewhere you can go?

- Yeah. - Okay.

I really hope they find her.

- Thank you. - Okay.

(inhales sharply)

Thank you for the interview.

- Thanks. - A word of advice...

You wanna make it in this industry,

don't make it personal.

Keep some distance from your story.

Yeah.

Why aren't you eating? You gotta be hungry.

I am, it's just, um...

(inhales sharply)

It's hard to eat with these, um...

Can you please take them off?

(groans)

(groans)

(Adrian) Just eat.

Thank you.

(switch clicks)

Is this water for me?

(Adrian) Yeah.

Well...

Sofia Rose disappeared in what police describe

as a violent kidnapping.

Sofia's friends and family are worried about her

and hope for her safe return.

Emily, Emily!

When was the last time that you saw Sofia?

(Emily)Last night, it was her birthday.

The last thing she said to me was that I was a good friend.

You didn't say anything about news media.

That wasn't part of the plan.

She's seen my goddamn face.

She can identify me.

Call me back immediately.

- (Emily on TV)Sofia... - Fuck!

(Emily on TV)If you can hear me, please stay strong.

All right, get back in bed.

(Emily on TV)We'll never stop looking for you.

(Adrian) And down.

Hands.

(Emily on TV) And to whoever took her...

(Adrian) Don't move your feet!

(breathes shakily)

Or anyone you know has any information of the whereabouts

of Sofia Rose, please contact our tip line, e-mail address

or phone number at the bottom of your screen.

(breathes shakily)

(suspenseful music)

- Emily. - Julia.

Have you heard anything else?

No, no, no, that's why I'm here.

I am terrified to go in here.

I can't go through this again.

- It'll be okay. - I...

I just can't.

We'll do this together, okay?

Come on, I got you.

It's okay, we're gonna find her, okay?

(elevator bell dings)

I'm here to see if there are any updates on Sofia Rose.

I'm her mother, I need to know what happened to my daughter.

Come with me, I'll take you to a detective.

Thank you.

(unnerving music)

(door opens)

We found your car.

Looks like somebody was trying to get rid of the evidence.

And the results of the blood stain came back.

They belonged to Sofia.

The evidence is mounting up. In addition to kidnapping,

you are possibly looking at a murder charge.

- No, no... - We have dogs, and a team...

searching the area where you ditched the car.

So it's only a matter of time before we find her body.

Or you can tell us where she is, and save us all the agony.

- Why? Why did you do it? - I didn't, I didn't do it!

- I swear! I didn't do it! - Why did you do it?

A life! Why did you do it?

(indistinct yelling)

(suspenseful music)

Wright, please, please.

Please, you gotta listen to me.

She's in danger, Wright! Wright! She's in danger!

Mrs.-Mrs. Rose! Emily! They're making a mistake.

(Julia) Bastard! What did you do to my daughter?

(Wright) Get him out of here.

- What have you done, Ben? - I swear to god!

- I swear to god... - Get him out of here.

- What did you do? - Please, you have to...

- You have to believe me! - You know where she is!

- Ben, just tell them. - Please just calm down.

Calm down, let's have a seat.

Let's have a seat, okay?

Okay? Okay.

- I'm fine. - We will find her.

- Okay? - Mm-hmm.

(Wright) I promise, we will find her.

We are doing everything we can.

- Excuse me, sir? - What?

Detective, we have something.

It came through our hot-line. She's alive.

- We have an audio clip. - Over here.

About an hour after the interview aired with Emily,

we got an anonymous e-mail.

(Sofia on recording) My name is Sofia Rose.

I've been kidnapped, but I'm-I'm okay.

My best friend Emily was interviewed

on the news earlier today.

She was wearing a brown turtleneck

and a green skirt that I bought for her birthday last year.

I've been told that I will be returned home safely.

However, any interference by the police or advancement...

That's her, that's my baby, she's still alive.

Thank god she's still alive.

See, it couldn't be Ben, he was in your custody

the whole time I was giving that interview.

How would she know what I was wearing?

(mellow music)

Release him.

What are you doing?

Cleaning up your mess.

We only get one shot at being first,

and you blew it by going to the cops.

A woman's life is at stake here

and you're worried about a story.

Now every network's going to get the lead.

There are ways of going about it where both we

and the cops get what we want at the same time.

We got to think like a journalist first.

- We ready? - Co...

(sighs)

(suspenseful music)

(Don) We are coming to you live from outside the police station

with a shocking twist in the Sofia Rose case.

We turned over to police an audio tape

received by our network, which seems to be proof

that Sofia Rose may still be alive.

Listen for yourself.

(Sofia on TV) My name is Sofia Rose.

I've been kidnapped, but I'm-I'm okay.

My best friend Emily was interviewed

on the news earlier today.

She was wearing a brown turtleneck and a green skirt

that I bought for her birthday last year.

I've been told that I will be returned home safely.

However, any interference by the police or advancement

on my kidnapper will put me in grave danger.

So please don't try.

Please tell my mom that I love her.

(unnerving music)

(door opens)

(line ringing)

Look, I know we weren't supposed to talk

until it's over, but I've had to alter the plan

and make some executive decisions.

You need to call me back now.

Goddamn it!

(deep breaths)

Shit.

You could just let me go.

You've already proved to everyone I'm still alive.

So, so no harm done.

I promise I won't say anything.

(music continues)

Who have you been trying to call?

Whoever talked you into this,

they're not answering for a reason.

They're setting you up to fail.

Don't let them.

Please, I'm begging you.

(grunting)

Shut up! Shut up!

Uh, it's not time yet.

(deep breaths)

What do you mean?

(inhales sharply)

(music continues)

What are you doing?

(muffled cries)

(panting)

(Adrian) I need collateral first.

So this time we're going to make a video.

And you better make it believable.

(deep breaths)

(groans)

(rattling)

Come on.

(breathes shakily)

(music continues)

(Adrian) Stay there.

(beeps)

(water splattering)

(music continues)

You can put these clothes on when you're done.

(music continues)

(water running)

(shattering)

(music continues)

Really? Goddamn it.

(grunts)

- Sorry. - Legs up.

(rattling)

(Adrian sighs)

(rattles)

(music continues)

(sighs)

(exhales softly)

(male reporter) Ben! Ben!

(reporters clamoring)

(door opens)

(door closes)

(distorted tense music)

Sof!

(grunts)

(heavy breaths)

(breathes shakily)

Sofia?

(soft music)

Never thought I could actually be jealous of a book.

(chuckles) What are you doing?

But seeing as it's getting all of your attention...

I'm at least going to participate.

(liquid pouring)

(clears throat)

Okay, read to me.

I'm halfway through, you won't know what's going on.

(Ben) It doesn't really matter.

I just want to hear the sound of your voice.

Okay.

(clears throat)

(sighs)

(deep breaths)

"She placed me before a number of those.

But she usually considered me more.

Early in German literature..."

(water running)

(birds chirping)

What am I doing here?

Um... (clears throat)

You have to help, I-I need a favor.

I need $500,000.

(Katie) How much do you think I am?

No, let the police handle it.

I can't! He'll kill her.

Please, you'll get it back as soon as they catch him.

I don't have it.

And even if I did, how do you know she isn't at dead already?

This was supposed to be you, Katie.

You made your choice, Ben.

So don't try and make me feel responsible for this.

I don't have anyone else.

And the police don't trust me, thanks to you.

I didn't tell them anything.

Are you being serious, Katie?

None of this would be happening

if you never sent those photos to Sofia.

- What photos? - The photos you staged!

Those photos.

Ben, I'm going to say this once.

Stay away from me.

(eerie music)

You never took those photos?

- Talk to the police. - Did you take those photos?

Sofia's in this position because of you.

- Goodbye, Ben. - Katie!

Katie!

(music continues)

(rattles)

(music continues)

(bed creaking)

(music continues)

(intense music)

(rattling)

(heavy breaths)

Somebody help me, please! Help me!

(whimpering)

(Adrian grunting)

(muffled screams)

(heavy breaths)

(music continues)

(engine rumbling)

(door opens)

(eerie music)

(car door shuts)

(tense music)

(Adrian) Come on.

(Adrian sighs)

Come on.

(Sofia whimpering)

(car trunk closes)

(ominous music)

(birds chirping in distance)

(Sofia breathing shakily)

- On your knees. - No.

- No. (whimpering) - On your knees.

On your knees.

(Sofia sobbing)

(tense music)

(sobbing)

You are not to remove your goggles,

make a sound, or move until you count to 100,

is that understood?

(Sofia shakily breathing)

(Sofia) One.

Two.

Three.

Four. Five.

(whimpering)

(breathing heavily)

(bird squawking in distance)

(tense music)

(groans)

(lament music)

(Sofia crying)

(Sofia) Mom!

(sobbing)

Mom. Mom!

(Sofia sobbing) Mom!

(door opens)

Baby. Baby!

(Sofia sobbing)

I got you. I got you.

(music fades)

(tense music)

(ticking)

(music intensifies)

(screaming)

(music fades)

(Emily) Ben.

Yeah. I-I-I couldn't, I couldn't get the money.

Forget about the money. It doesn't matter.

- (Ben) I have to tell the po... - She's alive.

(Emily) She showed up at her mom's house.

Ben.

(crying)

I thought you didn't believe me.

So why'd you come to get me?

I know you're capable of a lot of things, Ben Harris,

but... murder's not one of them.

- (sighs) - Come on, let's go.

Um...

(music fades)

Ah, he was, he had fair skin.

His eyes were like blue, maybe greenish.

He, h-he looked really tired.

(knocking on door)

- (door opens) - He was really tall.

Sofia, the detective is downstairs.

- Wanna come down? - Yeah.

- Okay. Come on. - Yeah.

(birds chirping)

(soft music)

Hi, Sofia, I'm Detective Wright.

I've been working on your case.

A lot of people have been worried about you.

We're just so glad you're home, sweetheart.

Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?

I promise I'll make it short.

Okay.

Do you know the man who took you?

No.

And you got a decent look at him for the sketch artist?

Uh, yeah, from what I can remember.

Did he have any other recognizable traits?

Scars, tattoos, anything?

Oh, it was, um, it was dark the majority of the time,

so, um, I didn't... see anything distinctive.

Were you ever able to get a look

at the vehicle he dropped you off in?

Um...

He warned me not to take my blindfold off until he left.

Did he take anything from you?

No. Not even my purse.

(music continues)

I know this is hard.

Do we need a female officer

to perform a sexual assault exam?

Oh, my God.

No. No, mom. Mom, it's fine.

He didn't, he didn't touch me like that.

It's okay.

Come.

It's all right.

How did he know where to drop you off?

Um...

When I told him my name wasn't Katie,

he, um, checked my driving license

and my, my mom's address is on it.

Do you know why someone would do this to you?

(dramatic music)

What?

No. No.

Detective, why would you even ask that question?

I'm just trying to figure out any details that may help.

Okay. No, I-I don't know.

I'm, I'm sorry. I'm just tired, okay.

Detective, if you don't have any further questions,

I think Sofia needs some rest.

(Wright) No, that's all for now.

Um, if you can think of anything else,

you make sure to let us know.

We wanna make sure we get this son of a bitch.

(eerie music)

Detective.

I do have one thing actually.

(Sofia sniffles)

(Sofia) He was a smoker. I managed to swipe this.

I don't know if this will help with DNA or something.

It was a very smart move on your part.

This could be very useful. Thank you.

Thank you.

I need you to expedite testing on this.

I'll get it to the lab right away.

Okay.

(spoons clinking)

(sighs) How is she really, detective?

Your daughter's holding up pretty well.

Much better than I expected, given what she's been through.

(ominous music)

I'm just so worried about her.

She's always been strong on the outside,

but still so fragile.

Like a doll that's gonna break into a million pieces.

She's lived through so much trauma.

I just hate that this has happened to her.

What sort of trauma?

Sofia's dad died when she was only seven.

He was shot and killed

in a store robbery by a career criminal.

And she watched the whole thing happen from the car window.

You remember the name of the shooter?

Bobby Johnson. It was in all the news.

I remember the case. I was a rookie.

He was a suspect in an armed robbery case

I was working on right before your husband was killed,

I'm-I'm so sorry.

I was a complete wreck for months.

But Sofia, she was the one who pulled me through.

She acted like the parent.

And I have always wondered if she just shut out the pain

and just never addressed it.

We all deal with grief in different ways.

Throughout this entire ordeal,

I have felt like I was reliving that loss all over again.

Did you know the day Sofia was taken was her 35th birthday?

We were driving home from John's 35th birthday

when he was shot and killed.

- (Ben) Sofia! - Where's Sofia?

- Oh. She's okay. - How is she?

She's, she's downstairs resting.

Just be gentle with her.

What are you doing here?

Just checking in on your friend.

(footsteps departing)

Excuse me, sir, I need to speak to you privately.

It's important.

Excuse me.

The station just received something

that you're gonna wanna see. They just sent it over.

(soft music)

(key clicks)

- (door creaks) - (thunder rumbling)

(door closes)

- (Ben) Sofia. - Oh, my God.

(Emily) Hey.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry I couldn't stop this.

It's okay.

I'm so sorry I wasn't there for you when this was happening.

- Now, my turned now, move. - Okay.

Hey.

You have no idea how worried I was about you.

I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't come back.

It's okay, all right? We're all here together.

- Okay? - (Emily sighs)

Okay. Come on.

(music continues)

(dramatic music)

(Emily) I feel like we need a little beach day.

Just the two of us getting all the sun in the sea.

(Ben) Right. So I'm just gonna be back home cooking.

Fine. You can come, too.

(Sofia laughs)

I'm so sorry to interrupt this reunion.

I just have a few more questions

I'd like to ask you before I go.

- Oh, okay. - Privately.

- No, uh, Ben... - Miss Rose.

- I think that, um... - No, it's fine.

Whatever you say to me, you can say front of Ben.

Okay.

I'll just wait with your mom upstairs.

(Sofia) Okay. (Ben) Okay.

(ominous music)

Your mom told me about the tragedy with your dad.

I'm so sorry to hear about it.

Thank you. It was a horrible experience.

I can only imagine.

And he passed away on his 35th birthday.

Yeah. Why do you ask?

This could be nothing,

but it is a coincidence that you were kidnapped

on your 35th birthday.

Yeah, you're right, detective. It does sound like nothing.

You're right.

(Ben) You good?

(sighs) Only...

It just doesn't seem to add up.

Like what, detective?

Like you reappear completely unharmed,

conveniently within walking distance

of your mother's house, with all your belongings

and not a single item stolen from your wallet.

Not even the cash inside.

I mean, this whole kidnapping was about money, right?

Yeah, a large sum of money. I don't...

Money is still money. And all the evidence

really did point towards your boyfriend here.

I mean, I really put this guy through the ringer.

Why can't you just believe us?

I believe you, Ben.

I also believe you were a pawn in Sofia's plan.

(Sofia chuckles) What?

(Wright) I wouldn't believe it either.

- But sometimes trauma... - Yo, this is just insane.

Especially at a young age, can make people

do unusual things.

Respectfully, sir, just please leave.

(tense music)

(Sofia on video) I think they believe us.

Now all we have to do is wait.

- Wait. Wait. - (Sofia) Ben, stop.

(Sofia crying)

- What the fuck is this? - I don't know.

- Why don't you ask Sofia? - It's not what it looks like.

It came with a note.

(Sofia) Okay, look...

Okay, he made me kiss him and act like I like it.

(Wright) It's very believable.

I was scared for my life!

Why did you refuse the rape kit earlier?

You said he didn't touch you like that.

Because he didn't rape me. I mean, he made me kiss him.

(Wright) Maybe you refused the exam

because you were having sex with your kidnapper

and you wanted Ben here to take the fall!

No, no, don't. That's not true.

Ben. Ben, you know that's not true.

You were with me, huh? Did it seem like a hoax?

Ben, look at me.

Yeah, I'm not sure what to believe right now.

(Sofia) No, no.

(Sofia) Ben, stop. (Ben) I need some fresh air.

(Sofia) Ben, stop!

I don't think you should leave.

(Sofia) What? Why?

Sofia Rose, you're under arrest for falsifying reports

of law enforcement.

You really think I would stage my own kidnapping...

I don't know what you're capable of.

(intense music)

Ben, what's wrong?

(Emily) Hey!

What is happening?

What, what is happening?

- Your daughter is under arrest. - For what?

(Sofia) I'm telling the truth, mom. I swear.

- You cannot do this. - Stay out of this.

(Julia) Just stop. No, I will not.

(indistinct chatter)

(Emily) We're right behind you, Sofia!

(music continues)

(indistinct chatter)

(camera shutters clicking)

(camera clicking)

(door opens)

Wait in here.

We'll need to ask you some more questions.

(door closes)

(reporters clamoring)

From the beginning, this case has been hard to believe,

and now we know why.

We have evidence we believe

confirms that the kidnapping was a hoax perpetuated

by Sofia Rose herself.

We are currently looking for her accomplice,

and we'll be releasing a sketch

to the public to help find him.

(Don) What charges will you be filing against her?

That will ultimately be up to the District Attorney.

However, I will be pushing for state and federal charges.

Miss Rose owes the city an apology

and she will be punished for her actions.

- That is all for now. - One more question, sir.

(all clamoring)

(dramatic music)

- (door buzzing) - (door opens)

Your mom's here to pick you up.

(Emily) I'm sorry all this happened to you.

What are you going to do?

I don't know.

I've spent the last 48 hours of my life

just trying to make it home.

You know, I believe you.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

God, I've got to find a way to prove my innocence.

I just don't know how.

(Emily) You don't have to figure it all out tonight.

Yeah, here, honey, go upstairs. Get some rest.

Okay. Yeah.

- I love you. - I love you, my love.

Good night. Sleep well.

Thank you.

(Julia smacks lips)

It's okay, Mrs. Rose.

S-she's innocent.

You know, I love you. It's so good you're here.

Thank you.

(indistinct chatter)

Ted!

(Ted) I haven't had my coffee yet, Daniels.

Oh, come on. I just want to know what you know

what you know about the Sofia Rose case.

There really isn't any evidence

to substantiate her claims?

Not really.

Oh, then why are you walking so fast?

(Ted) You know I can't tell you that, Jess.

Well, what's in the file? It looks like labs.

(suspenseful music)

You wanna get me fired?

You want me to show your station chief

what's on my phone?

What are you up to?

I just, I need a name on the lab, that's...

We don't know if it's even gonna prove anything.

Look, I just, I need a name, please.

(Ted sighs)

Thank you.

What's gotten into you? Why are you acting like this?

What, like a journalist?

(footsteps approaching)

Good morning.

Morning.

- Did you stay here last night? - (Emily) No.

Your mom was having a really hard time with everything

that happened yesterday,

so I just wanted to stop by this morning

and be there for her.

And you.

I know you're a good friend.

- You look nice. - Thank you.

You're not seriously thinking of coming

into work today, though, are you?

Well, why not?

God knows what Brian must think of me.

I need to minimize damage and make sure

that he knows that I'm still very much committed

to my clients and my job.

I can do that for you.

You need to stay home and rest.

You've been through something really traumatic.

Emily! I just need one day, one normal day,

so I can figure out how to prove to everyone

I'm telling the truth.

I just...

I don't think that's a good idea.

You know, people are really confused about what's happened

and think you need to just give them some time

to try and understand this mess.

I'm not gonna run and hide. I've done nothing wrong.

Okay. We, I'll meet you at work then.

(ominous music)

- Sofia. - Good morning, Brian.

This is a surprise, I wasn't expecting you in today.

Just want to put the final touches on the campaign.

That's great.

I... Hey, can we just talk for a minute?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

(sighs) What's up?

Just wanted to see how you were, make sure you're okay.

Yeah, no, I'm fine. Um, thanks.

Yeah.

Oh, just so you're aware, everything that they said

in the press last night was completely untrue.

I mean, it doesn't even make any sense.

Well, it was certainly a shock.

Yeah. Yeah.

Look, why don't you take a few weeks off?

You're dealing with a lot right now,

and work should be the least of your concerns.

Uh, listen, I really appreciate that,

but I don't want my accounts to fall behind.

They won't. I split them up between Jason and Emily.

They'll take care of them until further notice.

What? Why?

Look, please try and see this from my perspective.

This is an advertising company.

Right now, you're in the middle of a media circus,

not to mention criminal charges.

All the bad publicity has a lot of our clients concerned about

you being associated with their accounts.

I've worked for months on that campaign.

Please just let them see it.

(Brian sighs)

Okay. Send it to me.

- Okay. - I'll take a look.

- Mm-mm. - I can't make any promises.

Please go home, get some rest, okay?

Yeah.

(dramatic music)

(music continues)

(intense music)

(Ben on voicemail) Hey, you've reached Ben.

Please leave a message after the tone.

(beep)

(Sofia) Ben.

(music continues)

Please talk to me.

Y-you're the only person that knows what happened that night.

And what we went through.

You know it's not fake.

I... I need you.

Okay.

I don't know what to do.

(doorbell chimes)

(door opens)

- Yes? - Hi.

My name is Jessica Daniels. I'm from WNDC.

We just don't want to give any more interviews.

Thank you very much. Leave us alone, please.

Wait! I'm not, I'm not here for that.

I'm here because I believe her.

- Really? - Yes.

I've been following this story since the beginning, and I know

what she's been through.

I just wanna help.

Okay. Come in.

Thank you.

(door closes)

(ominous music)

(door clicks)

(lock clicks)

(Jessica) Okay.

I'll go upstairs and get Sofia.

Thank you.

(exhales)

(Julia) There's a journalist here to talk to you.

(exhales)

What are you doing here?

I-I just wanna talk.

Okay. Why?

My sources say that the police

have new information on your case.

I'm sure they haven't told you because they think he could be

your accomplice.

He wasn't my accomplice.

He was my kidnapper.

Mom, it's okay.

(sighs) Okay, I'll let you talk.

(music continues)

Does the name Adrian Morris mean anything to you?

Was it him?

I-I just, I really wanna help.

How?

The police have his name too,

and it's a matter of time before they track him.

Okay, they'll arrest him then!

If he doesn't run away first.

They need time, his address and warrants.

But, Sofia, I know where he is.

I can get to him before his name hits the news.

I can call this in before he runs.

What's in it for you?

I get the story. Your story.

- The whole truth. - (Sofia sighs)

(music continues)

Yeah, I'd have to think about that.

You really wanna risk him getting away?

I'll give you till tomorrow night

and then I'll go myself.

(ominous music)

(music intensifies)

(tense music)

(breathing heavily)

(keypad beeping)

- (line ringing) - I-I warned you.

I'm not going down for this.

Okay? I'm skipping town.

And if I get caught, you best believe

I'm gonna sing like a canary.

Adios. And fuck you!

- (phone beeps) - Fuck!

From the beginning, this case has been hard to believe.

Okay.

(Wright)...we believe confirms that this kidnapping

was a hoax perpetuated by Sofia Rose herself.

We are currently looking for her accomplice

and we'll be releasing a sketch...

Shit!

- What are you doing here? - (thuds)

(tense music)

(siren wailing)

(suspenseful music)

(car door closes)

Let's see.

Oh, shit. Shit!

(breathing heavily)

(ominous music)

(line ringing)

Um...

Y-yes, um, I would like to report a dead body, please.

2-O-5-O-6 Wood Street.

Just off the back. Yeah.

Uh, no, I-I don't know him.

I'm, I'm just press.

Yeah, okay.

(Jessica) Yeah.

You okay? Do you need some time to breathe or...

(suspenseful music)

(music continues)

(plastic rustling)

(door creaks open)

(music continues)

(curtain sliding)

(music continues)

(indistinct chatter)

Okay, yeah.

I just want you to breathe.

(indistinct chatter)

- Okay, thank you. - (sighs)

Okay.

Miss Rose was here all right.

Her hair is everywhere, lot more butts that match.

Yeah, well...

(siren wailing in distance)

I take it you've already read the letter.

You have to tell her.

I know I owe her that much,

but I know she won't wanna talk to me.

(dramatic music)

She'll talk to me.

Okay.

I'll meet you at the station tomorrow.

(ominous music)

To the truth setting you free.

(both chuckle)

(glasses clink)

(soft music)

What's wrong?

You got him. The nightmare's over.

I don't know.

There was someone on the phone. He wasn't alone.

You said there was a recording, right?

You never actually heard anyone he was talking to.

Right.

Well, then the guy was Looney Tunes.

You got to take the win on this.

Yeah, but why? Why me just for Katie's money?

I mean, it doesn't make any sense.

(knocking on door)

(Ben) Sofia!

He's already tried calling, like, ten times tonight.

I don't think he's gonna go away.

(Ben) ...for God's sake.

(knocking on door)

Open up!

(dramatic music)

- So... - What?

- What? What do you want? - Open the door.

What're you doing? Just hear me out.

All I asked you to do is the same thing and you ignored me.

I know, and I'm sorry, but that video just caught me off guard.

And it looked really believable. You...

Oh, yeah? The pictures of you

and Katie look pretty believable.

But I still gave you the benefit of the doubt.

You know, no, no. Only one good thing has happened

from this situation is show me that me and you

are not meant to be together.

- Oh, come on, Sofia. - Ben.

Ben, none of this would have

happened to me if I wasn't with you.

(lament music)

- Sofia. - No. No, we're done.

Sofia!

(Ben) So-Sofia! Open...

It happened to me as well.

(sighs)

(Emily sighs)

What?

I'm proud of you.

- Oh, thank you. - Mmm.

I'm gonna go hop in the shower.

Okay.

(phone vibrating)

- Hello? - (Jessica)Sofia.

How are you holding up?

I'm okay. You found him?

(Jessica)Yes.

- And he's really dead? - (Jessica)Yes.

Are you alone?

No, I'm, I'm with Emily.

(Jessica)Meet me at Detective Wright's

office right away.

- Tonight. - Why?

(Jessica)It's important. Trust me.

Please.

- Okay. - (Jessica)Come soon.

We're waiting.

(sighs)

(ominous music)

- Okay. I'm here. - Hey.

- What's this all about? - Take a seat.

(Wright) Please.

I'm not supposed to share evidence of victims,

but given everything you've been through,

everything I put you through, Jessica convinced me here

that this was the right thing to do.

(music continues)

I-I don't, I don't understand.

I mean... I mean, why would Emily do this to me?

I mean, this is a mistake. She's my best friend.

We found something on Ben's lie detector test.

He failed one question. "Did you cheat on Sofia?"

Originally, we thought it was with Katie, but when we went

into his phone, he claimed

Morris smashed the night of your kidnapping.

We were looking for contact

between him and Morris, but instead we found exchanges

between Ben and Emily from three months ago.

They were having an affair.

(lament music)

At the time it didn't seem relevant,

but now we realize how important that information was.

(dramatic music)

I can't believe, I can't...

Emily sent you those photos

of Ben and Katie to try and break you up.

(Wright) She took, "If Sofia was

no longer in the picture," suggestion from Ben literally.

It seems like it was Emily's intention

to have Adrian kill you,

but when Ben became the main suspect,

she had to change her plan and have you come back alive.

(instrumental music)

Why, why, why would Emily do all of this?

I mean, just to steal my boyfriend?

This is ridiculous.

(Wright) There's something else.

Once we found the messages on his own phone

when it gave us probable cause to look into his new phone too.

Wanna guess who he called first?

Emily.

He told her that Katie wasn't gonna pay the ransom for you.

(Wright) So we spoke to Katie about that night.

She said Ben was acting strange.

Um, desperate, he scared her.

It looks like he was trying to get her to give him money

so he and Emily could run off together.

(instrumental music)

Adrian was a street hustler that Emily knew from years ago.

I guess he must have just been pretty desperate.

And Emily used him for the promise of some of the ransom.

And then when he realized

he'd been double crossed, that's when he...

- He killed himself. - Yeah.

Miss Rose, I'm so sorry this has happened to you.

We'll be picking up Ben and Emily

first thing in the morning.

On behalf of the Bureau, I hope you will accept

my deepest apologies.

I... I don't know.

I... I thought Ben was the love of my life.

I thought Emily was my best friend.

So... I guess we all made mistakes, detective.

Yeah.

(music continues)

Hey, I'll give you a ride home.

(Jessica) Thanks, detective.

(music intensifies)

(knocking on door)

- Mr. Harris. - (Ben) What's going on?

We have a warrant to search the premises.

- (Emily) What's happening? - I-I don't know.

This must be some kind of mistake.

It's no mistake. Step aside, please.

(Emily) What? Detective Wright, everything okay?

We've been here waiting for news about Sofia all night.

Miss Davis, we have evidence that shows you had a personal

connection to Adrain Morris.

I don't know him.

How do you explain these photos

we found on your social media accounts

with you standing with him?

Uh, these are from years ago.

We also found his phone on the scene.

A lot of calls to the same number.

A burner phone. Your burner phone.

(phone ringing)

(dramatic music)

(Emily) This is ridiculous.

I-I don't have a burner phone.

Read Ms. Davis her rights.

- Ben. Ben. - (Ben) It's gonna be okay.

Did you ask your ex to cover the ransom

for Miss Rose's release?

Yes.

And you didn't think to tell law enforcement about a...

He said he was gonna kill her.

Arrest Mr. Harris for obstruction

of a criminal investigation, conspiracy to defraud,

and conspiracy to kidnap.

Get him out of here. Let's go.

You're hurting me.

(opera song playing)

(distorted speech)

(reporters clamoring)

(car engine starts)

(cameras clicking)

(singing continues)

(engine revving)

(siren wailing)

- Hey. - Hey.

I, um, I'm really sorry about your friend.

(Sofia) Yeah, me too.

(Jessica sighs)

I'm just glad this nightmare's over.

Yeah. Yeah, I can imagine.

Reporting live from the scene.

I'm Don Ramirez.

Jessica, I had some doubts when you joined this team,

but you've really, uh, proved yourself in this case.

I'll make sure the higher ups of the network

are made aware of your contribution

to helping us break the case.

Thanks, Don.

I honestly don't know how I'll ever repay you.

Well, how about you grant our network an exclusive

sit down interview? One-on-one. Nothing off limits.

Really let the public get to know the real you.

I'm sure you have a few things you wanna get off your chest.

- On one condition. - Name it.

Jessica is the one who does the interview.

(singing continues)

(instrumental music)

Hi, mom.

Look at my baby, you look so professional.

Taking time off your big new job

to do a TV interview!

Yeah. It's all part of the plan, mom.

Your dad would be so proud.

You're all right to hold this for me?

- Oh, sweetie. - Do I look okay?

You're beautiful.

We're ready for you, Miss Rose.

Thank you.

(music continues)

(dramatic music)

Sofia, hi.

Thank you for sitting down with us today.

- (Sofia) Yeah, it's okay. - We'll jump straight in.

What was it like living through

this horrible experience only to be accused of making it up?

I never once thought that if I survived

that I wouldn't be believed.

I mean, I went from being held captive

by my kidnapper to being held captive by the police.

Yeah. Let's talk about Detective Stan Wright.

I mean, he did the best he could.

And let's face it, his best wasn't good enough.

The city agreed with you to the tune

of $3,000,000.

Which is being put to good use.

Turns out, my clients in the ad industry

saw the value of having a fighter on their team.

With my new position, I'm able to focus on cases

dear to my heart.

I hope to take these terrible events and put them

into something more positive for the world.

Let's go back, though, to Detective Wright.

As you know, he was fired

after what he put you through, but this apparently

isn't the first time he's done something like this.

Accusing an innocent person while allowing

a dangerous criminal to walk free.

What?

I've been looking into Detective Wright's career,

and I found a link to your father's murder.

I know this will be shocking to hear,

but Detective Wright was apparently

the one responsible for allowing Bobby Johnson,

the man that killed your father,

to be walking on the street that day.

He accused an innocent person while allowing Bobby to walk

into a gas station to commit

another crime, which resulted in your father's death.

(dramatic music)

I can't believe what you're saying. You sure?

I know this is a lot to take in,

but knowing this now, what would

you say to Detective Wright if you had the chance?

I'd say...

that this justice was a long time coming,

and he got exactly what he deserved.

- (Sofia clears throat) - Sofia, thank you so much.

I really, really appreciate you doing this.

It's, it's my pleasure.

(suspenseful music)

- Um, Jessica? - (Jessica) Yeah?

Uh, I just have one small request.

That part about, um, Detective Wright's

involvement in my dad's death,

can... can you please cut that?

I mean, I know it's newsworthy,

but, um, my poor mom, I mean...

I don't mind being in the spotlight

because I can use it to help others.

But my mom... Please, Jessica, I'm begging you.

- (Jessica) Yeah, um... - Yeah.

I'll see what I can do.

Okay. Thank you.

(Sofia) Hey.

(Julia) Are you okay? (Sofia) Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay.

Let me take this from you.

- Come on, let's go. - Yeah. All right.

(ominous music)

(Jessica on video)Let's go back though to Detective Wright.

As you know, he was fired after what he put you through.

As you know, he was fired after what he put you through.

Am I good to dump that card?

Uh, just, just give me a minute,

Seabass, thank you.

(Jessica on video) though to Detective Wright.

As you know, he was...

(door opens)

(instrumental music)

(door closes)

(inhales deeply)

(exhales deeply)

Thank you for coming.

Well, you were gonna harass me until I did.

So you've got five minutes.

- Look, I'll admit that I just... - (Sofia) Tell me the truth.

Were you the one that sent me the pictures of Ben and Katie?

Yes or no?

Yeah, it was me.

(Emily)I'm sorry.

I never meant to fall for Ben, it just...

happened.

(Emily) He and I had so much more in common

than you and he ever did.

Yeah, you were both cheaters.

I knew you guys weren't gonna last,

so I tried to speed the process up a little bit.

You guys had only been going out for six months.

It's not like he was your soulmate.

Yeah, you're right. He wasn't my soulmate.

But you were.

You were my best friend for six years,

and your betrayal is the one that hurts the most.

(tense music)

You're right.

And I'm sorry.

Truly, I am.

But I didn't hire Adrian to kidnap you.

I don't know why he's trying to frame me for it,

but you got to believe me. I had nothing to do with it.

(intense music)

I know.

You see, there's a special place in hell

for women who betray women the way you did.

But I guess this will have to do.

It was you.

(Emily) How?

(Sofia)After you sent me the pictures of Ben and Katie,

I decided to do a little more snooping on Ben's phone.

I didn't find any of them cheating,

but guess what I did find?

That's when I start to plan my year.

Ben, lie down on your stomach with your head down...

(computer voice)Tie his hands behind his back.

And being your best friend made it so easy to find

someone just as desperate.

From your sordid past.

I knew your ex-boyfriend would wanna see you

face-to-face, so I had to go for something

a little more obscure, indirect choice.

One that even you wouldn't possibly remember.

Adrian really did think he was talking to you the entire time.

That's what makes his confession so perfect.

Of course, Adrian couldn't know that I was the one who hired

him, but when he decided to go off script and forced me to do

that video, I had no choice but to go along.

He was becoming unpredictable, so I tried to escape earlier

than scheduled, but luckily he brought me

exactly where I need to be, straight to my mom's.

Initially, I had no intention of hurting Adrian at all.

That was regrettable.

But he started to change the plan

and I couldn't trust him anymore.

And if he skipped town, it could ruin everything.

I needed him to write you out, so I had to change plans too.

What are you doing here?

(Sofia)Of course, it wasn't easy

keeping you out of it for so long, but I needed time.

Time for Ben to incriminate himself.

Two for one.

(rod clanks)

(music continues)

So the reporter, the one who tried to help you,

she was in on it the entire time?

No, no, no.

(Sofia)She was just a happy accident

that I decided to take advantage of.

Having her discover the evidence

made it so much more believable, don't you think?

All this because I slept with Ben?

You can cut the friend act now.

You're not as clever as you think.

At first I thought you were trying to ruin my life,

but actually you were trying to steal it.

- (Emily sniffles) - My job.

(music continues)

Brian, I really hate to say this,

but she's a little unstable.

(Sofia)My boyfriend.

Even my mother.

I'm sure she's innocent.

- I know. - If she's not, then...

There's gotta be a reason, right?

You'll always have me.

(Julia) I love you, angel. I'm so glad you're here.

(Julia) Thank you. (Emily) Love you.

You know, when I said to you this was gonna be the year

that I get exactly what I want, I meant it.

And despite all of his faults,

Detective Wright was right about one thing.

This happening on my 35th birthday,

the same age as my dad, was not a coincidence.

Detective Wright was just as arrogant

and lousy at his job back then as he was today.

He was so adamant that he had the right suspect

that he completely ignored Bobby Johnson.

(gunshot)

If he had just listened and arrested him

when he should have, Bobby Johnson would not

have been able to walk free and rob that store

three weeks later, and my dad would still be alive today.

My mom was so overwhelmed with being a single parent,

that she never sought justice for my dad.

Not from Detective Wright or the city.

So you did?

Oh, and my plan also got me a promotion.

Everyone loves a survivor.

So technically, I killed three birds with one stone.

And none of this would have been

possible if it wasn't for you.

So really, I came here to say thank you.

(music continues)

Oh, and, um, you were right.

Sometimes, in order to win, you gotta play the game.

(Emily sniffles)

(chuckles)

(door opening)

(door closing)

(gate buzzing)

(Jessica) Well, how'd it go?

She apologized.

And did you tell her everything?

Not everything.

Well, looks like we both got what we wanted.
