Captive (1991) - full transcript
Paul and Kathy Plunk move away from Phoenix, Arizona, so that their baby daughter may grow up in the healthy Oregon. They buy a small motel in a lonesome mountain region... - it could be idyllic, but their first guests are the wanted criminals Knott and Frost, who are on flight from the police. They need money, so they assault the Plunks, force them to withdraw all their money from the bank. But the nightmare just begins: they take the Plunks and their baby with them as hostages. Their life is worth nothing to the psychopathic criminals.

>> Well... dear, sweet Bart.
Come here, I wanna take a look
at you.
Come here, Katie.
Come here.
This is gonna be our new home.
It's called Yachats.
Can you say that?
Yachats?
>> Yachats.
>> Yachats. (laughs)
>> You know, I still can't
believe we're doing this.
>> (sighs)
>> Ah.
Thank God.
Hello.
>> Ah, Nigel.
Good to see you.
>> I couldn't be more glad to
see you if you were Santa Claus.
No, no, I tell you, I just can't
wait to get out of this place.
>> Really?
>> Well, hello.
>> Hi.
>> Is this the little creature
who was conceived on the
premises?
>> Yes, sir.
This is Katie.
Say hi, Katie.
Hi.
>> Hi.
(laughter)
Can I help you with, uh...
Oh, by the way, escrow says that
the paperwork won't be ready
till next week now.
I'm sorry, but I'm going to have
to disappear before that.
You don't mind, do you?
>> Oh, no.
>> I'll show you the ropes and
everything and, uh, yes, yes.
>> (chuckles)
Oh, honey, isn't it paradise?
>> It will be, with a few coats
of paint, some carpentry, some
plumbing and as long as we--
>> Keep up the payments.
I promise, sweetheart.
It won't be a problem.

alternator's busted.
We need a ride to the next town.
>> Oh, I'm sorry, but we're
headed the other way.
Don't mind giving you and
your friend a ride, though.
>> No, uh...
No, we gotta go north.
>> South's the best we can do.
But look, we just passed a
police cruiser a few miles back.
Maybe you should wait for them.
>> No, we'll go with you guys.

yesterday, you'll love...

>> We got the ocean here.
Got the ocean.
Can you run?
Can you run?
Do you like the water?
You wanna go in the water?
Ooh, the water.
You like the water?
(both laughing)
>> There's those girls.
>> I knew we'd get you back
here, Kathy.
Didn't I say so, my darling?
>> Oh, hi.
How are you?
>> We were hoping you hadn't
changed your minds.
>> Oh, of course not.
>> So where's the big fella?
>> Oh, he's off talking business
with Nigel.
You know.
>> Should be fishing.
There's plenty of time for work
after you officially take over
the place.
>> (laughing) That's true.
Hey, Katie, look who's come to
meet you.
Look who's come to meet you.
This is Uncle Rudy and Auntie
Hilda.
Can you say hi?
>> Hi.
>> Yeah, well, we're having a
party later on today.
There'll be candy and desserts.
Would you like to come, huh?
>> Yes, yes, of course she'd
like to come.
(indistinct chatter)
>> Get up there.
>> Hey, kids.
>> Hey, Paul, you met Marv
and Ed your last trip.
>> Gentlemen.
>> Hi, Paul.
>> Hi, Paul.
>> Now this here's Greg.
>> Hi, Greg.
>> And this is Stu, your
number-one competitor, just the
other side of Yachats.
>> Uh-oh.
>> (laughing)
Actually, we do business a
little differently here.
More cooperation than
competition.
>> We're not interested in
cutting each other's throats.
>> Kathy's been like a
granddaughter to me.
She's been coming here ever
since she was so high.
>> How old was I, Hilda?
Eight?
Oh, and I wanted to stay here
forever.
See, my father's job moved us
around a lot.
I just remember screaming that
first summer as we drove away.
>> Right.
>> My kids couldn't stand it.
They all left as soon as they
finished high school.
You know, I don't understand--
>> Puberty blues.
They won't appreciate it till
they're 10 years older.
(laughter)
We moved here the minute I found
out I was pregnant.
We did not want to raise a
family in L.A.
>> That's how we felt about
Tucson.
(overlapping chatter)
>> How you doing, sweetie?
Hey, hey, hey.
>> Right on the line.
>> There, this will help you.
>> Oh, thank you.
>> Mm-hmm.
You winning?
>> I just lost the motel.
Don't worry about it.
(laughter)
>> (laughing)
>> Okay, sweetheart.
>> Okay.
>> Turn it on.
Yes!
All right.
>> Great.
>> Ah, Rudy.
Good to get away from it all,
isn't it?
>> That's why we retired here.
>> Yeah, well, that's why we're
moving here.
Tucson was turning into bad
news.
Shady characters, very shady
morals.
You know, the S&L business
in Tucson was, well, I guess
it's the same everywhere, huh?
>> Well, I'm glad you and Kathy
are here, son.
And I just hope the two of you
make your fortune.
>> Well, Rudy, if I was
interested in a fortune, I'd
still be back in Tucson.
I'd be perfectly happy to make a
reasonable go of it.
Ah, Rudy...
Life doesn't get much better
than this, does it?
>> Good.
Okay, now our north front room
is our best, uh, Mr. Frost.
In fact, my husband and I spent
our honeymoon there.
>> Yeah?
>> Yeah, yeah.
Wisconsin, huh?
What's it like there?
>> It's, uh, it's cold.
It's really cold.
You're not missing much.
>> You and your friend out here
on holiday?
>> Yeah, we're just kind of,
you know, working our way up the
coast.
>> Mm.
Well, I think you're all squared
away.
Have a nice day.
Your room is up those outside
stairs and to the very end.
>> Okay.
>> Okay.
Have a good day.

I mean, I don't really want to
go to this Chamber of Commerce
meeting anyway.
>> Oh, no, I'll be fine.
I just want to write a few
letters once I get Katie down.
Go meet some new people.
>> Okay.

This is all we--
>> Don't play games with me.
>> This is our first day.
You're our first customers.
>> I think she's telling the
truth, Robert.
Come on, let's get out of here
before he gets back.
>> Where's your checkbook?
(baby crying)
>> My husband has it.
>> What's that?
>> Look, just take all we have
and leave!
>> No, I don't think so.
I think it's time to meet the
rest of your family.
>> Oh, no, please, don't hurt my
family, no!
>> Come on.
(baby crying)
>> Oh, that's a baby, man.
I don't like this, all right?
Come on, let's split.
>> All right, get over there.
>> Come on!
>> Shut up! Sit!
All right, get out there and
watch for her old man.
(baby crying)
Hey! Hey!
>> Hey!

>> That was really stupid.
>> Yeah, yeah.
>> You do that again...
and I'll kill your baby.
>> (panting)
>> Oh! Ow!
Ow, ow, ow!
Ow. Ohh.
>> Frost, you're useless.
You sit down there and you do
not move.
Do it like this.
Hey!
Give me the kid.
Give me the kid.
>> (sobbing) No, no.
Oh, God, oh, God.
No, no...
Just stay still, Katie.
Shh.
>> Bingo.
They're loaded.
You lied to me.
>> No.
>> Yeah, no, you did.
You have $109,000 in here.
>> No, we-- we paid out $100,000
on the motel two days ago.
(lamp shatters)
(gun cocks)
(gasps)
No, no, no!
>> R-Robert, Robert.
9,000, it's a lot of money.
If we kill-- if we kill her,
we get nothing.
>> Please.
Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God, no.

Kathy?

Yo, Kathy.
(whistling softly)
Hey, sweetie.
Well, hello, baby.
(gasps)
>> You move, and she's dead.
>> (whispers) Kathy!
>> Don't do anything, Paul.
>> What do you want?
Take anything, just don't hurt
my family.
>> Shut up.
All right.
We're all going to the bank in
the morning.
In the meantime... we're going
to have a little fun.
(electricity buzzing)
>> (sniffles)
>> That's a nice watch.
>> What are you going to do with
us?
>> Hey, what are we gonna do
with them, Robert?

What are we gonna do with them?

Does the bank know you're there?
Good.
He'll take-- shut up!
Now, if she comes back with the
money and she hasn't done
anything stupid, we'll tie you
up and we'll leave you.
Now, let's go.
Let's go!
>> Yeah, why are we going south?
Lincoln City is north.

He's the brains.

>> Are you okay?
Did he hurt you?
>> No... no.
>> Just try to stay calm,
sweetheart.
Everything's going to be fine
once we give them the money.
>> We're leaving the pickup
here.
The cops will figure we're going
south.

Katie, I swear to God, I'll kill
him.
>> I love you, Paul.
>> Now, you drive.
I need time to think.
(singsong) We're back.
(car horn honking)
>> All right, it's 10:00.
You got exactly 40 minutes.
If you're not back, I swear to
God, I'm going to kill your
baby, I'm going to kill your
husband and leave.
You'll be on your own.
>> Hey, lighten up, Robert.
I got it under control.
>> You don't have your shaving
under control.
>> When they come back with the
money, you're going to let us
go, right?
>> If you're a good boy.
All right, it's clear, let's go.
Come on!
(horn blaring)
>> Next, please.
(indistinct chatter)
Just a moment, please.
I need to see some I.D.,
Mrs. Plunk.
>> Right here.
I hope my Arizona driver's
license is okay.
>> Sure.
And a major credit card.
And sign the back.
How would you like it?
Bank check?
>> Cash.
Cash.
>> My, uh, brother and I are
going to Las Vegas.
>> Just a moment, please.
>> Good, Katie, that's good.
Look what you did.
Look at that.
Try...
Yeah, that's the plane.
>> What are you looking at?
>> (mutters) Nothing.
>> What, you want to play?
(baby babbling)
Okay.
>> (grunting)
Come on.
Ready?
Oh, well, we don't use this.
This is how we really play.
Any hand will do.
>> (chuckles)
>> 800, 900, and 9,000.
>> Everything seems right.
Thank you.
>> Just a moment, Mrs. Plunk.
Fred...would you escort these
people to their car, please?
>> Thank you.
>> Next, please.
>> (laughing)
Vegas.
That was great.
We were great.
When that hat came up, man, I
thought we were dead.
Thought we were going to have to
blast our way out of there or
something.
Bam, bam, bam, bam!
(laughing)
(blows)
Oh, now, come on.
Come on.
You were great in there.
We were just like Bonnie and
Clyde.
>> (crying) Please just hurry.
Hurry.
Here.
>> No, no, no, divide it in half
and look after Robert's, please.
>> (whispering) God.
>> (sighs)
>> I'm so scared of your friend.
>> Yeah.
He's kind of got that effect on
people.
He's really-- he's really out
there.
Intense.
>> He won't hurt my family, will
he?
You're so different from him.
How did you get mixed up with
him?
>> We were in the same halfway
house together in Wisconsin.
One day, we just decided we were
gonna boost a car, head out
west.
(laughing)
You know, like Butch and
Sundance.
We've been partying ever since.
Been drinking beer, popping
pills, snorting ice.
>> Butch and Sundance died, you
know.
>> Robert wants to die.
>> Do you?
>> If it's in the cards.
>> It doesn't have to be.
>> (sighs)
>> Please.
Will you help us?
Please, if you help us, then
maybe we can help you.
>> Maybe.
>> Please.
>> I gotta get my head straight.
I'll try.
You're pretty.
>> Could you please just drive a
little faster?
Please?
Uh...

(tires screeching)
>> Here.
Hi, sweetie.
What's he-- what's he done to
you?
>> Oh, it's nothing.
It's just a cut.
It's nothing-- are you okay?
>> Yeah.
>> Oh, thank God.
>> Hey, we were just like Bonnie
and Clyde.
We held hands, man.
>> Okay, look, you have your
money now.
You gonna let us go?
>> It's more money than we ever
had, hey, Robert?
>> I'm trying to count here.
>> I'm hungry.
I'm going to get some food.
Do you want something?
For your baby, maybe?
>> Let us go!
>> (chuckling)
>> I'm, uh, I'm running low on
disposable diapers.
>> Okay.

their search for two men in
their early 20s, one of fair
coloring and medium height, the
other tall, dark, possibly of
Native American descent--
>> What are we gonna do?
>> We're getting out of here,
and they're coming with us.
>> No, you said you'd let us go.
>> Yeah, well, now the situation
calls for a different strategy.
We need hostages.
>> No, you take me and you let
Kathy and Katie go.
>> No!
>> You promised.
>> (chuckles)
>> Hey, Robert, we could get a
boat.
Head out to sea.
>> I don't like the sea.
I told you, I'm a warrior, like

husband?
>> Will you shut your kid up?
>> Here, sweetie.
>> No.
>> Look, well, can I just take
her outside for a walk?
She needs air.
>> I-I'll go with her.
>> All right.
I'll stay and play with the
husband.
>> Come on, sweetheart.
>> Kids are different, aren't
they?
>> From what?
>> From us.
We're all screwed up.
When you're a kid, nothing makes
sense, you know.
It doesn't matter.
It's like, you're gonna live
forever when you're a kid, you
know?
You know?
>> Would you like to have kids?
>> I got a kid.
>> Where?
>> I don't like to talk about
it.
It makes me sad.
(chuckles)
What's your first name?
>> Jeff.
>> How old are you, Jeff?
>> 22.
She's nice.
Were you planning on having more
kids?
>> I'd like to have a little boy
someday.
>> No, no.
Boys are bad.
I-I'd like a little girl.
>> Sure.
Why not?
(car horn honking)
>> Come on!
Hurry up!
>> I'm gonna sit in back with
her.
You drive.
>> (chuckles)
>> All right.
>> Afternoon.
>> Hey, thanks for coming out.
Name's Rudy Bruger.
Now, this may be nothing, but if
you're running a motel, you
don't all take off and leave it
unattended, right?
Or leave your no vacancy sign on
when you got no guests.
>> Why don't you show me around?
>> Right, come on.
>> You're very tense.
You need more sleep.
>> My neck hurts all the time.
>> Feel better?
>> Yeah.
Yeah, it feels good.
(tires screeching)
No, don't stop.
Don't stop.

>> It's the cops, this is it!
Get ready.
(gun cocks)
All right.
We gotta find a place to hole
up.
>> Why don't you give yourselves
up instead of getting us all
shot!
>> Why don't you shut up?!
I ain't ending up in jail like
Geronimo.
I'm gonna die a free man, so
shut up!
(tires screeching)
(baby crying)
>> It's okay.
>> Shut up!
(crying continues)
Shut up!
Shut up!
>> Don't yell at her, please.
>> You shut up!
And you shut up!
All right, you shut this kid up
or I will, I swear to God.
>> Put the gun away.
You're scaring her.
Thank you.
>> Hey!
>> She can't breathe!
>> Paul!
>> Shut up!
>> Get away from my baby!
Oh, oh, please!
Stop! You bastard! Stop!
>> Leave her alone!
>> You like it, huh?
>> Oh! Oh, stop!
Oh, my God!

Leave her alone!

And then I heard this... crack,

And I went in the house, and my
father was dead.
>> And your mother?

My mother shot my father.

Mr. and Mrs. Plunk,
I'd like you to meet my
associate, Special Agent
Kinderson.

Is there anything I can get for
you?
Mrs. Plunk,
I'm going to have to take
you and your daughter to the
hospital for an examination.
(baby crying)
>> Come here.
>> Mommy...
>> What he did to my wife...

What they both did.
It...
I couldn't do a damn thing.
I wanted to jump them.
I kept looking for the right
moment.
(sighs)
I promised Kathy that if either
of them...
laid a finger on her,
I'd kill them.
>> Listen to me, Mr. Plunk.
Anything you might have tried
against those two would have
been fatal.
It would have provoked more
violence in them, and it would
have killed you, and probably
your wife and child too.
>> I didn't even try.
>> It sounds to me like you both
handled the situation incredibly
well.
>> No, I didn't protect my wife
and baby!
Kathy's going to hate me for
that.
(approaching footsteps)
(door closes)

>> We'll know more in a few
days.
>> And what about...
the other test?

tested for AIDS as soon as
they're apprehended.
To be safe, though, you should
schedule your own periodic
check-ups.
Kathy, forensics will need your
clothes for tests.
>> Oh.
They can keep them.
It wasn't me doing all those
things, it's...
it's...
it's all so disgusting.

that was so terrible?

the whole thing.
What I did with...
Jeff.
I led him on.
I let him... pretend we were
Bonnie and Clyde.
>> You keep calling him Jeff.
You liked him.
>> No.
No.
>> I'm not accusing you, Kathy.
>> He was different from Knott.
More... human, somehow.
And at first, I...
I wanted him to help us.
And then, as...
as weird as it sounds...
I wanted to help him.
It's crazy, it doesn't--
it doesn't make any sense.
>> No, it makes perfect sense.
You did exactly what you had to
do.
>> (scoffs)
Yeah...
But it's the other things I did.
I let him like me.
I mean, Jeff--
Frost didn't hold a gun
to my head.
I didn't... fight enough.
>> You did everything that was
necessary to survive.
You must see that.
These two men had the power of
life and death over all of you.

>> (laughing) That's true.
Hey, Katie, look who's come to
meet you.
Look who's come to meet you.
This is Uncle Rudy and Auntie
Hilda.
Can you say hi?
>> Hi.
>> Yeah, well, we're having a
party later on today.
There'll be candy and desserts.
Would you like to come, huh?
>> Yes, yes, of course she'd
like to come.
(indistinct chatter)
>> Get up there.
>> Hey, kids.
>> Hey, Paul, you met Marv
and Ed your last trip.
>> Gentlemen.
>> Hi, Paul.
>> Hi, Paul.
>> Now this here's Greg.
>> Hi, Greg.
>> And this is Stu, your
number-one competitor, just the
other side of Yachats.
>> Uh-oh.
>> (laughing)
Actually, we do business a
little differently here.
More cooperation than
competition.
>> We're not interested in
cutting each other's throats.
>> Kathy's been like a
granddaughter to me.
She's been coming here ever
since she was so high.
>> How old was I, Hilda?
Eight?
Oh, and I wanted to stay here
forever.
See, my father's job moved us
around a lot.
I just remember screaming that
first summer as we drove away.
>> Right.
>> My kids couldn't stand it.
They all left as soon as they
finished high school.
You know, I don't understand--
>> Puberty blues.
They won't appreciate it till
they're 10 years older.
(laughter)
We moved here the minute I found
out I was pregnant.
We did not want to raise a
family in L.A.
>> That's how we felt about
Tucson.
(overlapping chatter)
>> How you doing, sweetie?
Hey, hey, hey.
>> Right on the line.
>> There, this will help you.
>> Oh, thank you.
>> Mm-hmm.
You winning?
>> I just lost the motel.
Don't worry about it.
(laughter)
>> (laughing)
>> Okay, sweetheart.
>> Okay.
>> Turn it on.
Yes!
All right.
>> Great.
>> Ah, Rudy.
Good to get away from it all,
isn't it?
>> That's why we retired here.
>> Yeah, well, that's why we're
moving here.
Tucson was turning into bad
news.
Shady characters, very shady
morals.
You know, the S&L business
in Tucson was, well, I guess
it's the same everywhere, huh?
>> Well, I'm glad you and Kathy
are here, son.
And I just hope the two of you
make your fortune.
>> Well, Rudy, if I was
interested in a fortune, I'd
still be back in Tucson.
I'd be perfectly happy to make a
reasonable go of it.
Ah, Rudy...
Life doesn't get much better
than this, does it?
>> Good.
Okay, now our north front room
is our best, uh, Mr. Frost.
In fact, my husband and I spent
our honeymoon there.
>> Yeah?
>> Yeah, yeah.
Wisconsin, huh?
What's it like there?
>> It's, uh, it's cold.
It's really cold.
You're not missing much.
>> You and your friend out here
on holiday?
>> Yeah, we're just kind of,
you know, working our way up the
coast.
>> Mm.
Well, I think you're all squared
away.
Have a nice day.
Your room is up those outside
stairs and to the very end.
>> Okay.
>> Okay.
Have a good day.

>> Oh, no, I'll be fine.
I just want to write a few
letters once I get Katie down.
Go meet some new people.
>> Okay.
>> Okay?
>> Give me a kiss.
Give me a kiss.
>> Give Daddy a kiss.

Ain't got nothing!

This is all we--

You're our first customers.

truth, Robert.
Come on, let's get out of here
before he gets back.
>> Where's your checkbook?
(baby crying)
>> My husband has it.
>> What's that?
>> Look, just take all we have
and leave!
>> No, I don't think so.
I think it's time to meet the
rest of your family.
>> Oh, no, please, don't hurt my
family, no!
>> Come on.

>> Oh, that's a baby, man.
I don't like this, all right?
Come on, let's split.

watch for her old man.

>> Yeah, yeah.
>> You do that again...
and I'll kill your baby.
>> (panting)
>> Oh! Ow!
Ow, ow, ow!
Ow. Ohh.
>> Frost, you're useless.
You sit down there and you do
not move.
Do it like this.
Hey!
Give me the kid.
Give me the kid.
>> (sobbing) No, no.
Oh, God, oh, God.
No, no...
Just stay still, Katie.
Shh.
>> Bingo.
They're loaded.
You lied to me.
>> No.
>> Yeah, no, you did.
You have $109,000 in here.
>> No, we-- we paid out $100,000
on the motel two days ago.
(lamp shatters)
(gun cocks)

No, no, no!
>> R-Robert, Robert.
9,000, it's a lot of money.
If we kill-- if we kill her,
we get nothing.

Yo, Kathy.

Hey, sweetie.
Well, hello, baby.

>> You move, and she's dead.
>> (whispers) Kathy!
>> Don't do anything, Paul.
>> What do you want?
Take anything, just don't hurt
my family.
>> Shut up.
All right.
We're all going to the bank in
the morning.
In the meantime... we're going
to have a little fun.
(electricity buzzing)

>> That's a nice watch.
>> What are you going to do with
us?

He's kind of got that effect on

He's really-- he's really out

Intense.
>> He won't hurt my family, will
he?
You're so different from him.
How did you get mixed up with
him?
>> We were in the same halfway
house together in Wisconsin.
One day, we just decided we were
gonna boost a car, head out
west.

You know, like Butch and
Sundance.
We've been partying ever since.
Been drinking beer, popping
pills, snorting ice.

We held hands, man.
>> Okay, look, you have your
money now.
You gonna let us go?
>> It's more money than we ever
had, hey, Robert?
>> I'm trying to count here.
>> I'm hungry.
I'm going to get some food.
Do you want something?
For your baby, maybe?

>> We're on 'em now, Sheriff.
>> The cops!
(baby crying)
>> Katie, down, get down.
>> All right, step on it.
(tires screeching)
>> The van's pulled into
Tonquin Park, Sheriff.
I think we spooked them.
>> Okay, Clark, give 'em some
space.
Take a position to cover the
entrance and sit tight.
Back up units are on the way.
(tires screeching)
>> What's the plan?
Robert?
Robert?!
What's he doing?
Why-- why did he run?
>> Uh, he's, uh, he's abandoning
you, Jeff.
He doesn't care about you.
>> No, no, not Robert.
No, no, Robert's got a plan.
He's got a plan.
>> Sheriff, we can't see a
thing.
Request permission to go in
on foot.
>> Negative, Clark.
Hold for backup.
(baby fussing)
>> Jeff, he's not coming back.
Can't you see that?
He's not.
>> What should we do?
What-- what should we do?
>> Give yourself up.
It's the only way.
>> No! I told you!
I am not going back to prison!
Now, come on.
Come with me, all right?
W-W-We'll go into the woods and
we'll get Robert.
Robert is really good in the
woods.
He-- he'll get us out of this.
>> No.
Uh, no, no, I can't take Katie
into the woods.
I can't.
Quick, you go-- you go before
the police get here and
somebody gets hurt.
Okay?
>> Okay.
Okay.
You-- I'll go find Robert and--
and I'll bring him back, okay?
>> Okay.
>> Wait here.
Wait here.
>> Go... go, go, go.
Come on, go.
Go, go, go.
Go!
(engine stalling)
Stay down!
>> Robert, where are you?
>> Shh, shut up!
Shut up!
(engine stalling)
What the hell are you doing
here?
You're supposed to be watching
the woman and the kid.
>> I promised her I would bring
you back.
What are you doing?
>> I'm gonna ambush the cops
from here.
(engine stalling)
You left the keys with her, you
idiot?
(engine stalling)
>> Uhh! Uhh!
(engine turns over)
No, oh, oh!
(tires screeching)
(gunshots)
>> Sheriff, shots have been
fired.
>> What's going on?!
Where's she going?
Where's she going?!
Robert, wait!
Wait!
>> Van's making a run for it,
Sheriff.
>> Stay with it, Clark, but
don't do anything to jeopardize
the hostages.
Backup units are almost in
position to intercept.
(siren wailing)
>> Sheriff, it looks like--
>> (indistinct)
>> ... back to highway 12.
>> Now, when we get there, I
want you on the floor and out of
sight, okay?
(tires screeching)
>> Okay, stay down, Katie.
It's okay, baby.
(horn honking)
>> Tighten it up, Clark.
Your backup is closing in.
(sirens blaring)
>> They're moving in, Sheriff.
>> Stay, Katie.
Mommy will be right back.
Okay...
Oh, God, come on.
Come on, come on.
Answer the damn phone.
(tires screeching)
(sirens blaring)
>> Stand back, ma'am.
Keep your hands sight.
>> No, no, don't shoot!
Don't shoot, my baby's in there!
My baby's in there, stop!
>> That's my wife!
No, no, that's my wife!
Stop, that's my wife!
Honey!
(baby crying)
>> Oh, are you okay?
Oh, thank God.
(radio static)
>> Sheriff, this is Clark.
We finished our sweep of the
park.
No sign of the suspects.
>> Sheriff, unit two is clear.
>> This is unit five.
Nothing out of the ordinary in
this location.
(crickets chirping)
>> How you doing, pal?
It's time to take a little ride.
>> Just take it easy.
>> That's enough... him.
That's Robert Knott.
I want to personally kill this
bastard.
>> Oh.
Mr. and Mrs. Plunk,
I'd like you to meet my
associate, Special Agent
Kinderson.
>> Hello.
Is there anything I can get for
you?
Mrs. Plunk,
I'm going to have to take
you and your daughter to the
hospital for an examination.
(baby crying)
>> Come here.
>> Mommy...
>> What he did to my wife...
(sighs)
What they both did.
It...
I couldn't do a damn thing.
I wanted to jump them.
I kept looking for the right
moment.
(sighs)
I promised Kathy that if either
of them...
laid a finger on her,
I'd kill them.
>> Listen to me, Mr. Plunk.
Anything you might have tried
against those two would have
been fatal.
It would have provoked more
violence in them, and it would
have killed you, and probably
your wife and child too.
>> I didn't even try.
>> It sounds to me like you both
handled the situation incredibly
well.
>> No, I didn't protect my wife
and baby!
Kathy's going to hate me for
that.
(approaching footsteps)
(door closes)
>> Am I pregnant?
>> We'll know more in a few
days.
>> And what about...
the other test?
>> Frost and Knott will be
tested for AIDS as soon as
they're apprehended.
To be safe, though, you should
schedule your own periodic
check-ups.
Kathy, forensics will need your
clothes for tests.
>> Oh.
They can keep them.
It wasn't me doing all those
things, it's...
it's...
it's all so disgusting.
>> What do you think you've done
that was so terrible?
>> Well...
the whole thing.
What I did with...
Jeff.
I led him on.
I let him... pretend we were
Bonnie and Clyde.
>> You keep calling him Jeff.
You liked him.
>> No.
No.
>> I'm not accusing you, Kathy.
>> He was different from Knott.
More... human, somehow.
And at first, I...
I wanted him to help us.
And then, as...
as weird as it sounds...
I wanted to help him.
It's crazy, it doesn't--
it doesn't make any sense.
>> No, it makes perfect sense.
You did exactly what you had to
do.
>> (scoffs)
Yeah...
But it's the other things I did.
I let him like me.
I mean, Jeff--
Frost didn't hold a gun
to my head.
I didn't... fight enough.
>> You did everything that was
necessary to survive.
You must see that.
These two men had the power of
life and death over all of you.
>> What will Paul think of me?
>> Well, this is a welcome
change.
(grunts)
(locks door)
(sighs)
How do you feel?
>> More tired than I've ever
felt in my life.
>> Well, uh-- oh, there.
I'll put Katie down, and then
I'll get us organized here.
Shh...
You think the last few days will
hurt her?
>> The doctors say she'll be
okay.
She's young.
Probably won't remember, heh.
>> Hmm.
>> We should be so lucky.
Look, I'm too tired to think.
Do you mind if I take a bath?
>> No, of course not.
(knock on door)

Uh, are you okay?
You've been in here forever.

>> Oh... well, let me get you
a towel.

>> They're dead?
>> One of them was killed in a
shootout earlier this morning.
>> Great.
>> Which one?
>> They had a couple of hostages
with them, tried to make a run
for it in a stolen tow truck.
>> Who?
>> Frost was killed at the
scene.
Knott was shot as well.
We thought he was dead, but
doctors seem to think he's gonna
pull through.

finished the job, damn it.
(silverware clatters on plate)

He was just a dumb kid, and I
just kept telling him-- I told
both of them that it didn't have
to end like this.
>> But that's exactly where
their life was headed.
You and your husband are lucky
they didn't take you down with
them.
Jenny Blaker wasn't so lucky.
She and a young man-- a tow
truck driver-- were taken
hostage last night.
She died in the shootout this
morning.

Deborah, I don't know if I can

I mean, he was there and--
and then...
He thinks he knows, but he
can't-- he can't really know.

him credit for.
You need to be more
understanding about what he's

Forget intimacy.
We can't even talk about the
weather anymore.
When you're not working yourself
to exhaustion at the motel,
you're-- stalking around here
like-- like Rambo on guard duty.
This isn't the man I fell in
love with.

family together.
You know what your problem is?
You're too trusting.
>> You used to say that was
something you liked about me.
>> Yeah, well, that was before.
>> Well, I don't care.
I'd rather be that way than
always suspicious, than-- than
living like a-- a prisoner!
That's it, isn't it?
Those bars aren't to keep people
out-- you're trying to keep me
in.
Why don't you just admit it?
>> Why are you making this so
hard for me?

you're making it easy on me!

trying to do!

some help.
