HOLLY: Hi, hi honey.
RUSSELL: Hey, how's it going?
HOLLY: Good, should
be there in like an hour.
RUSSELL: You're
making good time.
HOLLY: You know me, I
can't resist an open road.
RUSSELL: Just watch out for
those Colorado Springs cops.
Wouldn't want to be late
to your 50th
conference this year.
Oh honey, it's
not a conference.
I told you, it's a little
consulting thing for a hospital.
Just a, bad coffee, twin
bed, you know, it helps them.
RUSSELL: You're such a saint.
Has, um, Chelsea called?
RUSSELL: She did actually.
She had a question about our
phone plan, I don't know.
Something about
blocking callers.
I told her she should
defer to my better half.
What time is it there now,
she's probably out
drinking with her friends.
I can, I can wait until
tomorrow, I'll call her.
RUSSELL: None of that,
she's at the library studying.
But yes, I think you're fine.
She can have fun, Russ.
RUSSELL: Yes, she can.
But, I know what's
out there, okay
and I know how guys think
and it's not always pretty.
Yeah, well I know
how girls think,
and we're not all walking
targets, trust me, she'll be fine.
(TRAFFIC ROARING)
Are you driving?
RUSSELL: Yeah, I'm
going to Costco real quick.
(LAUGHS) So unnecessary,
why do you do that?
RUSSELL: Honey, going
to these conferences
every other week is unnecessary.
So let's leave it at that.
I told you it's
not a conference.
RUSSELL: Maybe we could do
something together one weekend?
We can go somewhere, pack
a trunk full of wine.
Yeah, I mean,
obviously this weekend
I've got the conference.
RUSSELL: I thought
it wasn't a conference?
Well anyway, I'm just saying,
you know I'll be exhausted
and next weekend it would be
nice for me just to be home,
but, you know, if
you want to go.
RUSSELL: Yeah, well,
it was just a thought.
You pack your sleep meds?
Yeah, yeah I got it.
I doubt I need it, but I got it.
Okay I will call you when
I uh, when I get a break.
The reception, cell
reception I'm sure,
is going to be pretty
bad out there, so.
RUSSELL: Hold
on, what's the code
for the sprinkler system again?
Seriously, Russ, it's the
same code that we've been using
for ever, it's 9-18-91.
RUSSELL: And what
a first date it was.
I was a little worried
when you gave it up
after just dinner and a movie.
But you got that side of you.
(CHUCKLES) Okay Casanova.
RUSSELL: Alright, alright.
Bye.
RUSSELL: Love you.
Love you.
(CELLPHONE BEEPS)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Thank you.
You must be Mrs. Alan.
Yeah, yeah, yes I am.
We're very happy to have
you with us this weekend.
Mr. Alan has taken
care of everything.
You're in the
Black Diamond suit,
of course let us know if
we can be of any assistance
and Dave will show
you to your room.
Thank you.
Right this way.
It's supposed to be
a gorgeous weekend.
A little chilly, but clear.
HOLLY: Oh.
Is this a special weekend
or an anniversary stay?
Um, just a weekend getaway.
Well, he's got good taste.
(ELEVATOR BEEPING)
Gotta say, I'm
pretty fresh up here,
our two-year next month.
Oh, congratulations.
I'm sure she's a lucky lady.
Thank you. (CHUCKLES)
If you don't mind me asking,
have long have you been married?
20, um, 21 years.
That's a long time.
Hm.
If it's not too much to
ask, how do you manage?
I mean, I'm two years in,
I don't know, any
advice for somebody
just starting out like me?
Uh, distance makes
the heart grow fonder,
but never be distant when
you're in your wife's arms.
And flowers, yeah, they
actually work. (LAUGHING)
Here we are.
Thanks, it was something
I really needed to hear.
Your husband must
be a very lucky man.
(DOOR LOCK BEEPING)
After you.
(BRIGHT MUSIC)
Nice, isn't it?
(LAUGHS) Yeah.
Take a look around.
The living room's
here, internet.
(GENTLE MUSIC)
If you'd like, I'll leave
your bag in the bedroom.
(GENTLE MUSIC)
Thank you so much.
Much appreciated, mam.
Have a wonderful stay.

Please.
I said atop it.
(HOLLY SCREAMING)
(HOLLY SOBBING)
Night Falls
So intoxicating while
I'm anticipating
Ah
Ah, ah
No.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Now, let's see you lie.
No one leaves this room.
Not you, not her.
Your family is in danger.
I have Lydia and Jessica.
How old is Jessica?
A year and a half old?
But not a word to Holly.
You stay put until I'm gone.
And let's remember the
importance of family.
I'll call you later.
Enjoy my wife.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(DOOR SLAMMING)
Everett!
Everett!
(SOFT MUSIC)
Please, Everett.
Can you, can you just
get these off me.
(HOLLY WHIMPERING)
EVERETT: I'm sorry.
(HANDCUFFS CLINKING)
You think you can take
advantage of me like that?
What make you do that to me?
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- What makes you think
you can do that to me?
Get out!
I'm sorry.
Get away from me.
I'm gone, I am gone.
You do not get to do that to me.
(CELLPHONE RINGING)
You do not get to do that to me.
(CELLPHONE RINGING)
You don't get to do that.
(CELLPHONE RINGING)
Hello?
RUSSELL: What's the
first thing I told you?
She doesn't leave.
Please.
Holly, wait, wait.
- Please wait, wait, please.
- Don't touch me.
I didn't mean for it
to get out of control.
Please, I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry, I got
caught in the moment.
Please don't leave me.
I want to keep going, please.
Please, I'm so sorry.
Holly, I'm sorry.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
RUSSELL: Pretty smooth.
Why are you doing this?
RUSSELL: Your
family thanks you.
Please, don't hurt my family.
RUSSELL: I wish I could
say the same about mine.
Mr. Pierpoint, look,
I know you're upset,
but this is crazy, you can't
just keep us here like...
RUSSELL: You're
right, but you can.
What am I supposed...
RUSSELL: That's
up to you, Everett.
You're smart.
Six months of sneaking around,
well, five months
and three weeks.
I'm embarrassed it
took me that long
but, you know, banks call
about charges that big.
I'm guessing that
was your tuition?
Look, please, Mr. Pierpoint...
RUSSELL: Call me Russell.
What do you want me to do?
RUSSELL: You do
what you want, Everett.
Just as Holly will
do as she wants.
Just know if she leaves, or
if the police are called,
or if anything
happens that is not
you two walking out of this
hotel tomorrow afternoon
like nothing happened,
I kill your family.
I'll start by killing
your beautiful wife Lydia.
What do you think
about that Lydia?
LYDIA: Everett, help!
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
RUSSELL: Don't
test me, you punk.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
I made a mistake.
You, you can hit me, punish
me, do whatever you want,
but please, don't run away.
Can we start over?
What part of you,
seriously Everett,
what made you think
- that that was okay?
- I'm sorry.
HOLLY: I want to know,
tell it, explain it to me.
I thought you
were enjoying it.
Enjoying myself?
We've been doing this
for as long as we have,
I thought I would
try something new.
New?
Something new would
be giving me my coffee
without any fucking
cream and sugar in it.
I mean...
Yeah, you're right.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
I wouldn't even
have done it, had,
Had what?
had you not said what
you did last weekend.
What did I say last weekend?
That you liked it rough.
And when I did things
to you in the moment.
That doesn't make it
right, I know that.
Please, please
can we start over?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(CELLPHONE RINGING)
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
Hi, honey.
RUSSELL: Holly,
where are you?
Uh, I'm, I'm still
at the hospital.
I'm just on a break,
it's good timing.
RUSSELL: In Colorado Springs?
Hm-mm, yeah.
Hi sir, hotel security.
Sorry to bother you
folks this afternoon.
We just had a noise complaint
and I wanted to come
check in on you guys.
Sorry.
Is something wrong?
- Okay, just doing my job.
- You're not in
Colorado Springs, Holly
and you are in serious danger.
What?
Is everything okay in here?
Uh.
SECURITY GUARD: Sir?
Huh, yeah, uh, very
sorry, we'll keep it down.
RUSSELL: Everett
Alan is not safe.
You need to listen
to me very clearly.
Is he nearby?
Holly, are you
clear to talk to me?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
Who's Everett?
Honey, what are
you talking about?
RUSSELL: I'm talking
about the man you're fucking
that isn't me.
His name is Everett Alan.
He is 27 years old, wife
named Lydia, same age,
daughter named Jessica, she's
just a year and a half old.
You might have been
sneaking around for months,
and I've just caught wind,
but, that's not what's
important right now,
so listen to me closely.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
He is a dangerous man.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Everett, Everett Alan,
honey, uh, he's a student.
That's a student in my class.
RUSSELL: Do you really
think you're the first fling?
What?
RUSSELL: Or the only
one he has right now?
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
EVERETT: Holly,
can you open up?
RUSSELL: Girls have
gone missing, Holly.
Even girls who didn't go
all the way out to Aspen
for a weekend getaway.
Do you have any idea what
position you've put yourself in?
Stupid, you're
fucking stupid Holly.
You need to get out of
there, but leave quietly.
Only when you have a chance.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
EVERETT: Holly?
(LOCK CLICKING)
RUSSELL: Don't just
bolt or arouse suspicion,
just slip out.
Russ, is this real?
Sorry, who was that?
My husband.
EVERETT: What'd he want?
He's just checking up on me.
Right.
Um.
I'm a, I got to get some air.
Wait, I did something for us.
Come.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Let me make amends.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(CELLPHONE DINGING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Let me help you.
Oh no, I...
It defeats the purpose
if you're texting
while I work out your knots.
Alright.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
I um...
You can trust me.
Hm.
Just your back, I promise.
Okay.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Lie down.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
You'll have to bear with me,
I'm not really a masseuse.
Here.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
So how'd I do on
that thoracic exam?
Even with your help, I bet
I land around a C-minus.
How did you afford this?
Rule Number Three.
It's extravagant.
Wouldn't it raise
some red flags?
Well, I do have
a credit card, now.
No more questions, Rule
Number Three clearly states...
It's a large charge,
wouldn't your wife see?
I, um, pre-cleared it.
Besides she doesn't have
the head for financing.
We're fine.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
What'd you tell your
husband for this weekend?
Rule Number One.
You started it.
Consulting gig in
Colorado Springs.
Are you still in Denver?
Yeah.
What does he do?
Wow, you really are trying to,
break Rule Number One.
I just think I've
earned the right to know.
I mean, if he's a boxer or cop,
I gotta know how fast
I have to run, right?
There would be no
running from him, trust me.
Is that why he called?
HOLLY: What do you mean?
No, I just wondered
if everything's fine?
I mean, he called you.
Yeah, he's just
checking in on me.
What'd he say?
(HOLLY SIGHS AND LAUGHS)
I'm sorry, it's just so
not comfortable, this bed.
Uh, he just said that wants
me to check in with him,
you know, before I go to sleep.
I mean, doesn't your wife
like you to check in with her
when you're away
for the weekend?
Yeah.
HOLLY: What
does Mrs. Alan do?
EVERETT: Well, with my
daughter she does what she can.
The odd jobs, on and off.
Like what?
That's enough.
Well I can't wait to see what
you've got planned
for the weekend.
What is on the agenda?
Mostly just a lot
of stay-in activities.
It's cold out, and
there's fates worse than
keeping us in this
room all weekend.
That is, if I'm enough for you.
Of course you are.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
I'm just going to
go and you know,
you know, wash all
of the oils off me.
Get ready for our...
No, no, no.
- Carry the calm to the shower.
- Hey just...
My room, my rules.
It'll be here when you get back.
Sure.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

(FOOTSTEPS THUDDING)
(DOOR CREAKING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(CELLPHONE DINGING)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Sorry, please.
Come on.
(CELLPHONE DINGING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Is anyone there?
Please, I'm in the
Black Diamond suite.
(EVERETT KNOCKING)
(DOOR CLICKING)
Holly?
(EVERETT BANGING)
Please!
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(EVERETT BANGING)
(DOOR CLICKING)
(EVERETT GRUNTING)
(DOOR BANGING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(HOLLY GASPS)
Shit Everett,
you, you scared me.
Sorry I was knocking and
I thought maybe you slipped.
No, no.
No, I was just about
to take a shower.
Oh.
Hmm.
I do love it when
we shower together.
Oh, I, I really, really
just want to shower alone,
if that's okay.
(WATER RUSHING)
It's not so bad, is it?
Since we've already broken
rules one and three,
I'd really like to know what
your husband does for a living.
Why?
Curiosity.
You haven't quite
killed the cat.
It must not be good,
otherwise you would've
already told me by now.
Well, you're getting warmer.
Cop?
Warmer.
Detective?
Warmer.
Jesus, what is
he, an assassin?
No, he's surveillance.
You're kidding?
He's retired now
but he's (GASPS).
You do realize you are
having a fucking affair
and your husband is
police surveillance?
Get off me!
Jesus fucking Christ, Holly!
What?
Christ!
Everett, I don't...
No, hm.
Don't you think
this would have been
good information to tell me,
I don't know, three months ago?
I don't understand why.
Let me guess, he told
you he wouldn't use power
in evil against you,
bug you, or follow you,
or do whatever the
fuck surveillance does!
- He sits at a desk now.
- Oh bullshit!
Fuck!
(EVERETT LAUGHING)
This isn't good.
Why?
Do I need to spell
it out for you?
(DOOR SLAMMING)
Stay here.
(WATER RUSHING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(CELLPHONE DINGING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(CELLPHONE DINGING)
Everett?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Everett?
Will you leave me alone for
one fucking second, please?
Sure.
How do you know?
How the fuck do you know?
How do you see me?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
What the fuck?
Why?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
I'm sorry about
lashing out before.
You look really nice.
Would you care to join me
on the balcony for a drink?
(FOOTSTEPS THUDDING)
(OWL HOOTING)
Clear night, you
can see the stars.
Yeah.
EVERETT: It's cold
here, let me help you.
HOLLY: I got it.
Have you tried the wine?
Could I get a glass
of white, do you mind?
It's just, I feel like the
red's gonna knock me out.
I think there's like half a
bottle left in the fridge.
Is that okay?
- No it's fine.
- Are you sure?
Yeah, yeah, I'm sure.
You can leave that.
It's very good.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(GLASS SHATTERING)
Shit!
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Everything okay?
Oh I was just
- moving the blanket.
- Jesus, Holly!
I know, well I was
moving the blanket.
I was just too cold.
- It's fine, here.
- I'm sorry.
- I didn't mean to.
- Here take this.
Thank you.
Be careful.
To us.
Cheers.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
- Well I'll get it.
- I got it.
- No I got it.
- No really.
You've done enough.
Please sit, please.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Relax.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Uh, good evening sir!
My name's Dave, it's my
pleasure to serve your dinner.
Would you like me
to come back later?
No, sorry, come in.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Ah, hello again mam.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
What's for dinner?
Unfortunately I
just carried the tray,
but it smells delicious.
And our chef is fantastic,
I don't think you'll
be disappointed.
Madam, for you.
Sir, yours.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Uh, if there's
anything else you need
or if you'd like
this cleared out,
just call down to reception.
You can ask for me
and otherwise we'll be
through tomorrow morning
to take care of it.
Thank you.
Oh, I've got it.
Shoot, one minute.
(FOOTSTEPS CLICKING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Is there any special
instructions from the chef?
No, Chef didn't say anything.
Would you like me to ask him?
That's fine.
Thank you so very much.
Yeah, my pleasure, as always.
Enjoy dinner.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Shall we?
(DOOR CLICKING)
Sure.
What's for dinner?
I went with the
Chef's Special for two.
Fine.
Wow, the chef has
really (CLEARS THROAT)
got a sense of humor and not
much imagination, clearly.
Well, I love a rare steak.
Well you always were
the more adventurous one.
I am?
Well, I can't help but wonder,
I'm not entirely sure,
I would have come aboard this
wonderful, wild ride had you
not been so forward with me.
I was the forward one?
As far as I remember you
had borderline failing grades,
and I asked you if
you wanted or needed
any special assistance
on the next chapter,
to which you
enthusiastically agreed.
You're a hell of a
teacher, what can I say?
No, you can say that.
You know, I'll never
forget my first day.
Your enthusiastic disapproval
for my use of anesthetics.
It was your pride
that hooked me,
guess it was just some
cruel twist of fate
that our first private session
was on the reproductive system.
Yes a magical,
mystical revelation
in evolutionary science.
How any of us pop into this
world is a roll of the dice.
And yet here we are.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
You know, I don't think
I got to thank you
for helping me get by.
I know you know, and I know too
that I actually could
make a really good doctor.
(HOLLY LAUGHS)
Sorry, I know that?
Well, why else
would you help me?
Oh, a moment of weakness.
(EVERETT SCOFFS)
Oh that's funny
'cause I thought, you...
You said cruel twist of fate.
What did you mean, what's cruel?
Let's call it what it is.
HOLLY: What is it?
We're both married.
Yeah, yes we are.
Did you enjoy
our time together?
Yeah I enjoyed it.
Have you?
Yes, I have enjoyed it.
The natural moments,
that haven't been born
from predisposed
days, weeks, years,
of knowing exactly how
someone's going to react.
The unknowable.
Moments of pure
shock and chance.
Pleasure of body and mind,
which of course can only happen
because you don't know how
someone's going to react.
And then of course,
it is all intensified
because it is forbidden fruit.
It's wrong.
So every stolen moment,
every late-night rendezvous,
my optimistic mind
tricks me into thinking
that maybe this is the
rocky road before something
new and wonderful happens.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
But I wouldn't take that leap.
I would never take that risk.
So (LAUGHS) here we are,
a pleasurable purgatory.
But we had fun.
Yeah, it's been fun.
(CELLPHONE DINGING)
Where is my phone?
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
After dinner, I promise.

Everett, what's going on?
What is that?
(DISHES CLINKING)
Empty plate.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
HOLLY: What's going on?
Hey, what's wrong?
Please don't.
- Oh Everett.
- Holly.
Come on, have a drink.
What suddenly a little dinner
detour's too risque for you?
Come on.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Did you think that your
show of power earlier
was going to be the be-all and
end-all of us fucking today?
Is that what you thought?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Holly, please put it down.
I want you to tell me
everything's that's going on here
and then I'm going to go.
I'm sorry.
Talk.
Sexual assault's not
going to be hard to prove,
you're kinda fucked on that one.
Please.
Talk.
Lean in.
What?
Lean in as if to kiss me.
- I'm not going to kiss you.
- You need to trust me.
I don't trust you.
Listen to me,
the room is bugged.
I don't know how but
he can see and hear us.
- Who?
- Your husband.
- He set this up.
- What?
Yes.
He has my family, he's
punishing me for us, okay?
Come on.
(HOLLY GROANING)
Something's wrong with me.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Help!
(HOLLY GROANING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
I'm sorry.

(METALLIC CLINKING)
(METALLIC CLINKING)
What?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
What the fuck?
What the fuck?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Easy.
No!
Holly.
Don't touch me.
What's the last
thing you remember?
(METALLIC CLINKING)
Stop listen.
You drugged me.
What's the last
thing you remember?
What that my husband's
setting this all up?
That's he's the one
that's listening to us?
You psycho.
I know who you are.
Who am I?
He told me, you know.
I don't.
I'm not the first person
that you've done this to!
I'm not the only person
that you've done this to.
What are you talking about?
You better let me
out of here, Everett.
Because Russell's coming
and he's bringing the
whole force with him.
Is he?
(METALLIC CLINKING)
(RUSSELL GROANING)
Quiet, quiet.
(RUSSELL MOANING)
Shh!
(RUSSELL MOANING)
(RUSSELL GURGLING)
What the fuck?
(RUSSELL GURGLING)
What the fuck?
Look at me, look at me.
What's going on?
Is this over, can we go?
Who's doing this?
(RUSSELL GURGLING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
What's in this?
Is this in you?
Tell me.
(RUSSELL MOANING)
(RUSSEL MUMBLING)
Take this, write it down.
Tell me everything.
Write it down, come on.
Shit!
(METALLIC CLINKING)
Everett, you have to
let me out of these.
EVERETT: I
can't, and not yet.
There's no scenario here
where you get away with this.
Do you understand?
Holly, I...
Everett it's over, it's done.
Don't make this any
worse than it already is.
Think about your family.
This could be a
turning point for you.
I could help you, Everett.
You could, start the healing.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
But I'm a psycho, right?
Date 'em and dump
'em, probably worse,
is that what Russell told you?
I could give two
shits about my family.
And you think he's going
to ride in on a white horse
and save you from bad me?
I can't wait it.
Well then I better
not waste any more time.
(METALLIC CLINKING)
No, Everett, no, please!
No, don't do it.
No, don't do it.
Russ, oh my god.
Oh my god.
What did you do?
(METALLIC CLINKING)
What did you do?
I didn't do anything.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(HOLLY SOBBING)
What did do you?
(RUSSELL MOANING)
I'm here, I'm here.
I'm here, Russ.
(RUSSELL GURGLING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(HOLLY SOBBING)
No.
I, I found this.
I don't know what's in it.
(HOLLY SOBBING)

(CELLPHONE RINGING)
MAN ON PHONE: This
is for both of you.
Remember, you were both married.
And affairs hurt both families.
But I'm going to make an
exception and change the rules.
Now, only one of you will be
checking out come morning.
Figure it out
amongst yourselves,
but only one of you get to
leave your little love nest
and go home to see what's
left of your family.
The other, well, you will
have taken care of them.
Holly, let's just
say Chelsea may
have wound up in strange company
after her wild night
out last night.
Her roommate Sammy
is far too trusting.
And Everett, well,
you already know
how close I am with your family.
Again, If either of you
try to contact the police,
or reach out for help,
or both try to leave,
I will kill what's left
of both of your families.
Then you two can truly
run away together
because that's all you'll have.
Clock's ticking.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(WATER RUSHING)
(PAPER RUSTLING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Jessica's almost
two years old.
I don't have a choice.
Everett, stop, just think
about this for one second.
We are in this together.
Think about my daughter,
just think about my daughter.
Please, you have
to understand.
HOLLY: Stop.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
MAN AT DOOR:
Mister and Missus?
If you're in, please open up.
(HOLLY WHIMPERING)
Hotel Security.
Oh god.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Sorry to interrupt.
Uh, that's okay,
sorry it took so long.
How can I help you?
Another noise complaint.
Oh, geeze, I'm sorry.
We get carried away
sometimes, we'll keep it down.
Yeah, anyway,
sorry to bother you,
but one of the wait
staff has gone missing.
Uh, he sent some
strange text messages
to one of the other staff,
so we're talking to as many
of the guests as we can,
who were in contact with him.
Wow, I hope he's okay.
How can I help?
Well, first off, his
name's Dave Parker,
and the kitchen staff said last
he'd delivered dinner here.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(HOLLY SIGHING)
(BEEPING)
SECURITY GUARD: Is
your wife here with you?
Uh-huh.
Can we speak with her?
Yes, one second.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(METALLIC CLINKING)
What are you doing?
I'm going to let you out.
We have to work together now
for the sake of our families.
We have to lie.
Okay.
Okay.
(DOOR CLICKING)
Um I'm so sorry, it's
our weekend away, so.
Great, Mrs.?
Holly.
SECURITY GUARD: Holly,
Holly nice to meet you.
Uh, we were just telling your...
Everett's fine.
SECURITY GUARD: Everett,
we were just telling Everett
one of the wait
staff, Dave Parker...
The room service
guy has gone missing.
Gosh, that's, well
that's terrible news.
We were just wondering
maybe he mentioned
where he might of been going
or if he was acting strange
while he was here with you guys?
No.
He was very polite
and professional.
He, he came in, he
set up our food,
and we tipped him, he left.
Would you excuse me?
- Of course.
- Of course.
That's fine.
Thank you.
Okay.
Have you left the room
any time after dinner
to go to the front
desk or get ice?
No we've been
in here all night.
Sir, is there
anything that you can
think of while we're
here, anything?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
No not really, honestly.
That's it right, honey?
Yeah, that's it.
Well, that seems
to be everything.
Please, enjoy the
rest of your stay.
Thank you.
Oh and sir, we're
going to be following up
with a few other guests,
if there's anything
that you think of...
We'll let you know.
Thank you gentlemen.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Want to sit down?
Let's talk about this?
Whoever's doing this is probably
be watching us right now.
HOLLY: Well, how
convenient of them
and how are they
managing that, Everett?
I have my theories.
But your husband's
background in surveillance
could have been beneficial.
So who's doing this?
I don't know.
How do I know it
isn't you, Everett?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
My wife's ring finger
was sent with dinner
as punishment for failing to
follow the previous rules.
Go check the covered
plate, in the sink.
And what rules were those?
Go look.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Christ.
The rules were I keep you here
and don't tell you anything
and we both get to
leave in the morning.
But now...
Only one of us gets to leave.
Now let's be perfectly
honest Everett,
if those security guards
hadn't of shown up,
you would have murdered me
and walked straight out of here.
EVERETT: I see.
Am I making you uncomfortable?
Look.
I have a wife and a
child that I provide for.
I can't just leave them.
Well Everett, let me
spell this out for you.
You already did.
Six months ago when you
started fucking your professor.
In that vain hope that
you might actually
become a real doctor.
And what about you?
What about me?
You've killed my husband,
you left me tied
while he was dying
and I could of saved him.
This is all your fault.
Everything is your fault.
You, Everett Alan,
are the worst thing
that could ever of
happened to anybody.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Let me tell you
how this all started.
Don't.
With me, bound and
gagged on the floor,
watching your husband fuck you.
It wasn't me, Holly,
think about it.
You know the last
thing he said to me
before he untied me and
threatened to kill my family,
"Enjoy my wife."
So tell me, Everett,
who's doing this?
Told you, I don't know.
Alright, I'm going
home to my daughter.
Did you ever have
feelings for me?
Don't.
- I'm serious.
- Don't come any closer.
I mean it, did you?
HOLLY: Do not
come any closer.
I know after all this you
want to write it off as a fling
or a transactional relationship,
but I don't think
that's what it was.
I wasn't going to hurt
you in there, I promise,
I could never hurt you.
Let's not do this, please.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Please Holly.
I love you.
(EVERETT GRUNTING)
Oh god.
Don't.
Oh God.
Wait, wait, wait.
How are we going
to lie about this?
I need a doctor.
We're bad people, holly.
HOLLY: No we're not.
I'm cold.
I'm getting cold, Holly.
I know we're not
supposed to be together,
will you hold my hand?
(GENTLE MUSIC)
I'm so sorry.
Please don't tell my family.
(EVERETT CRYING)
I won't.
(EVERETT CRYING)
Do you think
they'll forgive me?
I don't know.
EVERETT: Will you forgive me?
Will you forgive me for them?
Yes, yes I forgive you.
I forgive you Everett.
(GENTLE MUSIC)
Holly.
HOLLY: I'm here, I'm here.
(CELLPHONE RINGING)
MAN ON PHONE: You are
one step away from freedom.
All you have to do is
destroy this phone.
Put it in the microwave
for thirty seconds
and that's it, you can go home.
Or, you can come to
room 513 and meet me.
And I'll introduce myself
and tell you why I did this.
And then, I'll let
you go, I promise.
You won't be harmed.
Don't worry about the room.
It will be taken care of.
My room key is in
your husband's pocket.
Now please, put this

(DRILL WHIRLING)
Guess Russ never

HOLLY: Oh god.
Smart man.
It didn't take much to
get him on board, though.
Why?
Why, you mean why
would anyone betray
the love and trust of the
person closest to them?
I don't know, you tell me.
You, you made us...
I didn't make you
do anything, Holly.
Everett's first
two were nothing.
First two girls were, just
vanished like a bad dream.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
But you.
He was obsessed with you.
And now that I'm
standing next to you,
I can understand why.
He had everything, but
that, it just wasn't enough.
We need the
medics in room 512.
Call the police
and send ambulance.
You're not going to
get away with this.
SECURITY: There
could be three,
likely armed and dangerous.
I think I will.
No.

RUSSELL: Hey, how's it going?
HOLLY: Good, should
be there in like an hour.
RUSSELL: You're
making good time.
HOLLY: You know me, I
can't resist an open road.
RUSSELL: Just watch out for
those Colorado Springs cops.
Wouldn't want to be late
to your 50th
conference this year.
Oh honey, it's
not a conference.
I told you, it's a little
consulting thing for a hospital.
Just a, bad coffee, twin
bed, you know, it helps them.
RUSSELL: You're such a saint.
Has, um, Chelsea called?
RUSSELL: She did actually.
She had a question about our
phone plan, I don't know.
Something about
blocking callers.
I told her she should
defer to my better half.
What time is it there now,
she's probably out
drinking with her friends.
I can, I can wait until
tomorrow, I'll call her.
RUSSELL: None of that,
she's at the library studying.
But yes, I think you're fine.
She can have fun, Russ.
RUSSELL: Yes, she can.
But, I know what's
out there, okay
and I know how guys think
and it's not always pretty.
Yeah, well I know
how girls think,
and we're not all walking
targets, trust me, she'll be fine.
(TRAFFIC ROARING)
Are you driving?
RUSSELL: Yeah, I'm
going to Costco real quick.
(LAUGHS) So unnecessary,
why do you do that?
RUSSELL: Honey, going
to these conferences
every other week is unnecessary.
So let's leave it at that.
I told you it's
not a conference.
RUSSELL: Maybe we could do
something together one weekend?
We can go somewhere, pack
a trunk full of wine.
Yeah, I mean,
obviously this weekend
I've got the conference.
RUSSELL: I thought
it wasn't a conference?
Well anyway, I'm just saying,
you know I'll be exhausted
and next weekend it would be
nice for me just to be home,
but, you know, if
you want to go.
RUSSELL: Yeah, well,
it was just a thought.
You pack your sleep meds?
Yeah, yeah I got it.
I doubt I need it, but I got it.
Okay I will call you when
I uh, when I get a break.
The reception, cell
reception I'm sure,
is going to be pretty
bad out there, so.
RUSSELL: Hold
on, what's the code
for the sprinkler system again?
Seriously, Russ, it's the
same code that we've been using
for ever, it's 9-18-91.
RUSSELL: And what
a first date it was.
I was a little worried
when you gave it up
after just dinner and a movie.
But you got that side of you.
(CHUCKLES) Okay Casanova.
RUSSELL: Alright, alright.
Bye.
RUSSELL: Love you.
Love you.
(CELLPHONE BEEPS)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Thank you.
You must be Mrs. Alan.
Yeah, yeah, yes I am.
We're very happy to have
you with us this weekend.
Mr. Alan has taken
care of everything.
You're in the
Black Diamond suit,
of course let us know if
we can be of any assistance
and Dave will show
you to your room.
Thank you.
Right this way.
It's supposed to be
a gorgeous weekend.
A little chilly, but clear.
HOLLY: Oh.
Is this a special weekend
or an anniversary stay?
Um, just a weekend getaway.
Well, he's got good taste.
(ELEVATOR BEEPING)
Gotta say, I'm
pretty fresh up here,
our two-year next month.
Oh, congratulations.
I'm sure she's a lucky lady.
Thank you. (CHUCKLES)
If you don't mind me asking,
have long have you been married?
20, um, 21 years.
That's a long time.
Hm.
If it's not too much to
ask, how do you manage?
I mean, I'm two years in,
I don't know, any
advice for somebody
just starting out like me?
Uh, distance makes
the heart grow fonder,
but never be distant when
you're in your wife's arms.
And flowers, yeah, they
actually work. (LAUGHING)
Here we are.
Thanks, it was something
I really needed to hear.
Your husband must
be a very lucky man.
(DOOR LOCK BEEPING)

to get out of control.
Please, I'm so sorry.

Why are you doing this?
RUSSELL: Your
family thanks you.
Please, don't hurt my family.

say the same about mine.
Mr. Pierpoint, look,
I know you're upset,
but this is crazy, you can't
just keep us here like...
RUSSELL: You're
right, but you can.
What am I supposed...
RUSSELL: That's
up to you, Everett.
You're smart.
Six months of sneaking around,
well, five months
and three weeks.
I'm embarrassed it
took me that long
but, you know, banks call
about charges that big.
I'm guessing that
was your tuition?
Look, please, Mr. Pierpoint...
RUSSELL: Call me Russell.
What do you want me to do?
RUSSELL: You do
what you want, Everett.
Just as Holly will
do as she wants.
Just know if she leaves, or
if the police are called,
or if anything
happens that is not
you two walking out of this
hotel tomorrow afternoon
like nothing happened,
I kill your family.
I'll start by killing
your beautiful wife Lydia.
What do you think
about that Lydia?
LYDIA: Everett, help!
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

test me, you punk.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

You, you can hit me, punish

Can we start over?
What part of you,
seriously Everett,
what made you think
- that that was okay?
- I'm sorry.
HOLLY: I want to know,
tell it, explain it to me.
I thought you
were enjoying it.
Enjoying myself?
We've been doing this
for as long as we have,
I thought I would
try something new.
New?
Something new would
be giving me my coffee
without any fucking
cream and sugar in it.
I mean...
Yeah, you're right.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
I wouldn't even
have done it, had,
Had what?
had you not said what
you did last weekend.
What did I say last weekend?
That you liked it rough.
And when I did things
to you in the moment.
That doesn't make it
right, I know that.

can we start over?

Hm-mm, yeah.
Hi sir, hotel security.
Sorry to bother you
folks this afternoon.
We just had a noise complaint
and I wanted to come
check in on you guys.

Is something wrong?
- Okay, just doing my job.

Colorado Springs, Holly
and you are in serious danger.
What?
Is everything okay in here?
Uh.

Huh, yeah, uh, very
sorry, we'll keep it down.

Alan is not safe.
You need to listen

Is he nearby?
Holly, are you
clear to talk to me?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
Who's Everett?
Honey, what are
you talking about?

about the man you're fucking
that isn't me.
His name is Everett Alan.
He is 27 years old, wife
named Lydia, same age,
daughter named Jessica, she's
just a year and a half old.
You might have been
sneaking around for months,
and I've just caught wind,
but, that's not what's
important right now,
so listen to me closely.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
He is a dangerous man.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Everett, Everett Alan,
honey, uh, he's a student.

think you're the first fling?
What?

one he has right now?
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

can you open up?

gone missing, Holly.
Even girls who didn't go
all the way out to Aspen
for a weekend getaway.
Do you have any idea what
position you've put yourself in?
Stupid, you're
fucking stupid Holly.
You need to get out of
there, but leave quietly.
Only when you have a chance.

bolt or arouse suspicion,
just slip out.

He's just checking up on me.
Right.
Um.
I'm a, I got to get some air.
Wait, I did something for us.
Come.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Let me make amends.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(CELLPHONE DINGING)

So how'd I do on
that thoracic exam?
Even with your help, I bet
I land around a C-minus.
How did you afford this?
Rule Number Three.
It's extravagant.
Wouldn't it raise
some red flags?
Well, I do have
a credit card, now.
No more questions, Rule
Number Three clearly states...
It's a large charge,
wouldn't your wife see?
I, um, pre-cleared it.
Besides she doesn't have
the head for financing.
We're fine.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
What'd you tell your
husband for this weekend?
Rule Number One.
You started it.
Consulting gig in
Colorado Springs.
Are you still in Denver?
Yeah.
What does he do?
Wow, you really are trying to,
break Rule Number One.
I just think I've
earned the right to know.
I mean, if he's a boxer or cop,
I gotta know how fast
I have to run, right?
There would be no
running from him, trust me.
Is that why he called?
HOLLY: What do you mean?
No, I just wondered
if everything's fine?
I mean, he called you.
Yeah, he's just
checking in on me.
What'd he say?
(HOLLY SIGHS AND LAUGHS)
I'm sorry, it's just so
not comfortable, this bed.
Uh, he just said that wants
me to check in with him,
you know, before I go to sleep.
I mean, doesn't your wife
like you to check in with her
when you're away
for the weekend?
Yeah.
HOLLY: What
does Mrs. Alan do?
EVERETT: Well, with my
daughter she does what she can.
The odd jobs, on and off.
Like what?
That's enough.
Well I can't wait to see what
you've got planned
for the weekend.
What is on the agenda?
Mostly just a lot
of stay-in activities.
It's cold out, and
there's fates worse than
keeping us in this
room all weekend.
That is, if I'm enough for you.
Of course you are.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
I'm just going to
go and you know,
you know, wash all
of the oils off me.
Get ready for our...
No, no, no.
- Carry the calm to the shower.

My room, my rules.
It'll be here when you get back.

you, you scared me.
Sorry I was knocking and
I thought maybe you slipped.
No, no.
No, I was just about
to take a shower.
Oh.
Hmm.
I do love it when
we shower together.
Oh, I, I really, really
just want to shower alone,
if that's okay.
(WATER RUSHING)
It's not so bad, is it?
Since we've already broken
rules one and three,
I'd really like to know what
your husband does for a living.
Why?
Curiosity.
You haven't quite
killed the cat.
It must not be good,
otherwise you would've
already told me by now.
Well, you're getting warmer.
Cop?
Warmer.
Detective?
Warmer.
Jesus, what is
he, an assassin?
No, he's surveillance.
You're kidding?
He's retired now
but he's (GASPS).
You do realize you are
having a fucking affair
and your husband is
police surveillance?
Get off me!
Jesus fucking Christ, Holly!
What?
Christ!
Everett, I don't...
No, hm.
Don't you think
this would have been
good information to tell me,
I don't know, three months ago?
I don't understand why.
Let me guess, he told
you he wouldn't use power
in evil against you,
bug you, or follow you,
or do whatever the
fuck surveillance does!
- He sits at a desk now.
- Oh bullshit!
Fuck!

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
What the fuck?

You look really nice.
Would you care to join me

EVERETT: It's cold
here, let me help you.
HOLLY: I got it.
Have you tried the wine?
Could I get a glass
of white, do you mind?
It's just, I feel like the
red's gonna knock me out.
I think there's like half a
bottle left in the fridge.
Is that okay?
- No it's fine.
- Are you sure?
Yeah, yeah, I'm sure.
You can leave that.
It's very good.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(GLASS SHATTERING)
Shit!
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Everything okay?
Oh I was just

- Jesus, Holly!
I know, well I was
moving the blanket.
I was just too cold.
- It's fine, here.
- I'm sorry.
- I didn't mean to.
- Here take this.
Thank you.
Be careful.
To us.

You've done enough.
Please sit, please.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Relax.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Uh, good evening sir!
My name's Dave, it's my
pleasure to serve your dinner.
Would you like me
to come back later?
No, sorry, come in.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Ah, hello again mam.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
What's for dinner?
Unfortunately I
just carried the tray,
but it smells delicious.
And our chef is fantastic,
I don't think you'll
be disappointed.
Madam, for you.
Sir, yours.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Uh, if there's
anything else you need
or if you'd like
this cleared out,
just call down to reception.
You can ask for me
and otherwise we'll be
through tomorrow morning
to take care of it.
Thank you.
Oh, I've got it.
Shoot, one minute.
(FOOTSTEPS CLICKING)
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Is there any special
instructions from the chef?
No, Chef didn't say anything.
Would you like me to ask him?
That's fine.
Thank you so very much.
Yeah, my pleasure, as always.
Enjoy dinner.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Shall we?
(DOOR CLICKING)
Sure.
What's for dinner?
I went with the
Chef's Special for two.
Fine.
Wow, the chef has
really (CLEARS THROAT)
got a sense of humor and not
much imagination, clearly.
Well, I love a rare steak.
Well you always were
the more adventurous one.
I am?
Well, I can't help but wonder,
I'm not entirely sure,
I would have come aboard this
wonderful, wild ride had you
not been so forward with me.
I was the forward one?
As far as I remember you
had borderline failing grades,
and I asked you if
you wanted or needed
any special assistance
on the next chapter,
to which you
enthusiastically agreed.
You're a hell of a
teacher, what can I say?
No, you can say that.
You know, I'll never
forget my first day.
Your enthusiastic disapproval
for my use of anesthetics.
It was your pride
that hooked me,
guess it was just some
cruel twist of fate
that our first private session
was on the reproductive system.
Yes a magical,
mystical revelation
in evolutionary science.
How any of us pop into this
world is a roll of the dice.
And yet here we are.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
You know, I don't think
I got to thank you
for helping me get by.
I know you know, and I know too
that I actually could
make a really good doctor.
(HOLLY LAUGHS)
Sorry, I know that?
Well, why else
would you help me?
Oh, a moment of weakness.
(EVERETT SCOFFS)
Oh that's funny
'cause I thought, you...
You said cruel twist of fate.
What did you mean, what's cruel?
Let's call it what it is.
HOLLY: What is it?
We're both married.
Yeah, yes we are.
Did you enjoy
our time together?
Yeah I enjoyed it.
Have you?
Yes, I have enjoyed it.
The natural moments,
that haven't been born
from predisposed
days, weeks, years,
of knowing exactly how
someone's going to react.
The unknowable.
Moments of pure
shock and chance.
Pleasure of body and mind,
which of course can only happen
because you don't know how
someone's going to react.
And then of course,
it is all intensified
because it is forbidden fruit.
It's wrong.
So every stolen moment,
every late-night rendezvous,
my optimistic mind
tricks me into thinking
that maybe this is the
rocky road before something
new and wonderful happens.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
But I wouldn't take that leap.
I would never take that risk.
So (LAUGHS) here we are,
a pleasurable purgatory.
But we had fun.
Yeah, it's been fun.

HOLLY: What's going on?
Hey, what's wrong?
Please don't.
- Oh Everett.
- Holly.
Come on, have a drink.
What suddenly a little dinner
detour's too risque for you?
Come on.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Did you think that your
show of power earlier
was going to be the be-all and
end-all of us fucking today?
Is that what you thought?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Holly, please put it down.
I want you to tell me
everything's that's going on here
and then I'm going to go.
I'm sorry.
Talk.
Sexual assault's not
going to be hard to prove,
you're kinda fucked on that one.
Please.
Talk.
Lean in.
What?
Lean in as if to kiss me.
- I'm not going to kiss you.
- You need to trust me.
I don't trust you.
Listen to me,
the room is bugged.
I don't know how but
he can see and hear us.
- Who?
- Your husband.
- He set this up.
- What?
Yes.
He has my family, he's
punishing me for us, okay?
Come on.

Don't touch me.
What's the last

(METALLIC CLINKING)
Stop listen.
You drugged me.
What's the last
thing you remember?
What that my husband's
setting this all up?
That's he's the one
that's listening to us?
You psycho.
I know who you are.
Who am I?
He told me, you know.
I don't.
I'm not the first person
that you've done this to!
I'm not the only person
that you've done this to.
What are you talking about?
You better let me
out of here, Everett.
Because Russell's coming
and he's bringing the
whole force with him.
Is he?

Tell me everything.
Write it down, come on.
Shit!
(METALLIC CLINKING)
Everett, you have to
let me out of these.
EVERETT: I
can't, and not yet.
There's no scenario here
where you get away with this.
Do you understand?
Holly, I...
Everett it's over, it's done.
Don't make this any
worse than it already is.
Think about your family.
This could be a
turning point for you.
I could help you, Everett.
You could, start the healing.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
But I'm a psycho, right?
Date 'em and dump
'em, probably worse,
is that what Russell told you?
I could give two
shits about my family.
And you think he's going
to ride in on a white horse
and save you from bad me?
I can't wait it.
Well then I better
not waste any more time.
(METALLIC CLINKING)
No, Everett, no, please!
No, don't do it.
No, don't do it.
Russ, oh my god.
Oh my god.
What did you do?
(METALLIC CLINKING)
What did you do?
I didn't do anything.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

MAN ON PHONE: This
is for both of you.
Remember, you were both married.
And affairs hurt both families.
But I'm going to make an
exception and change the rules.
Now, only one of you will be
checking out come morning.
Figure it out
amongst yourselves,
but only one of you get to
leave your little love nest
and go home to see what's
left of your family.
The other, well, you will
have taken care of them.
Holly, let's just
say Chelsea may
have wound up in strange company
after her wild night
out last night.
Her roommate Sammy
is far too trusting.
And Everett, well,
you already know
how close I am with your family.
Again, If either of you
try to contact the police,
or reach out for help,
or both try to leave,
I will kill what's left
of both of your families.
Then you two can truly
run away together
because that's all you'll have.
Clock's ticking.

to understand.

How can I help you?
Another noise complaint.
Oh, geeze, I'm sorry.
We get carried away
sometimes, we'll keep it down.
Yeah, anyway,
sorry to bother you,
but one of the wait
staff has gone missing.
Uh, he sent some
strange text messages
to one of the other staff,
so we're talking to as many
of the guests as we can,
who were in contact with him.
Wow, I hope he's okay.
How can I help?
Well, first off, his
name's Dave Parker,
and the kitchen staff said last
he'd delivered dinner here.

I'm going to let you out.
We have to work together now
for the sake of our families.
We have to lie.
Okay.
Okay.
(DOOR CLICKING)
Um I'm so sorry, it's
our weekend away, so.
Great, Mrs.?
Holly.
SECURITY GUARD: Holly,
Holly nice to meet you.
Uh, we were just telling your...
Everett's fine.
SECURITY GUARD: Everett,
we were just telling Everett
one of the wait
staff, Dave Parker...
The room service
guy has gone missing.
Gosh, that's, well
that's terrible news.
We were just wondering
maybe he mentioned
where he might of been going
or if he was acting strange
while he was here with you guys?
No.
He was very polite
and professional.
He, he came in, he
set up our food,
and we tipped him, he left.
Would you excuse me?
- Of course.
- Of course.
That's fine.
Thank you.
Okay.
Have you left the room
any time after dinner
to go to the front
desk or get ice?
No we've been
in here all night.
Sir, is there
anything that you can
think of while we're
here, anything?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
No not really, honestly.
That's it right, honey?
Yeah, that's it.
Well, that seems
to be everything.
Please, enjoy the
rest of your stay.
Thank you.
Oh and sir, we're
going to be following up
with a few other guests,
if there's anything
that you think of...
We'll let you know.
Thank you gentlemen.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Want to sit down?
Let's talk about this?
Whoever's doing this is probably
be watching us right now.
HOLLY: Well, how
convenient of them
and how are they
managing that, Everett?
I have my theories.
But your husband's
background in surveillance
could have been beneficial.
So who's doing this?
I don't know.
How do I know it
isn't you, Everett?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
My wife's ring finger
was sent with dinner
as punishment for failing to
follow the previous rules.
Go check the covered
plate, in the sink.
And what rules were those?
Go look.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Christ.
The rules were I keep you here
and don't tell you anything
and we both get to
leave in the morning.
But now...
Only one of us gets to leave.
Now let's be perfectly
honest Everett,
if those security guards
hadn't of shown up,
you would have murdered me
and walked straight out of here.
EVERETT: I see.
Am I making you uncomfortable?
Look.
I have a wife and a
child that I provide for.
I can't just leave them.
Well Everett, let me
spell this out for you.
You already did.
Six months ago when you
started fucking your professor.
In that vain hope that
you might actually
become a real doctor.
And what about you?
What about me?
You've killed my husband,
you left me tied
while he was dying
and I could of saved him.
This is all your fault.
Everything is your fault.
You, Everett Alan,
are the worst thing
that could ever of
happened to anybody.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Let me tell you
how this all started.
Don't.
With me, bound and
gagged on the floor,
watching your husband fuck you.
It wasn't me, Holly,
think about it.
You know the last
thing he said to me
before he untied me and
threatened to kill my family,
"Enjoy my wife."
So tell me, Everett,
who's doing this?
Told you, I don't know.
Alright, I'm going
home to my daughter.
Did you ever have
feelings for me?
Don't.
- I'm serious.
- Don't come any closer.
I mean it, did you?
HOLLY: Do not
come any closer.
I know after all this you
want to write it off as a fling
or a transactional relationship,
but I don't think
that's what it was.
I wasn't going to hurt
you in there, I promise,
I could never hurt you.
Let's not do this, please.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
Please Holly.
I love you.
(EVERETT GRUNTING)
Oh god.
Don't.
Oh God.
Wait, wait, wait.
How are we going
to lie about this?
I need a doctor.
We're bad people, holly.
HOLLY: No we're not.
I'm cold.
I'm getting cold, Holly.
I know we're not
supposed to be together,
will you hold my hand?
(GENTLE MUSIC)
I'm so sorry.
Please don't tell my family.
(EVERETT CRYING)
I won't.
(EVERETT CRYING)
Do you think
they'll forgive me?
I don't know.
EVERETT: Will you forgive me?
Will you forgive me for them?
Yes, yes I forgive you.
I forgive you Everett.

one step away from freedom.
All you have to do is
destroy this phone.
Put it in the microwave
for thirty seconds
and that's it, you can go home.
Or, you can come to
room 513 and meet me.
And I'll introduce myself
and tell you why I did this.
And then, I'll let
you go, I promise.
You won't be harmed.
Don't worry about the room.
It will be taken care of.

the love and trust of the
person closest to them?
I don't know, you tell me.
You, you made us...
I didn't make you
do anything, Holly.
Everett's first
two were nothing.
First two girls were, just
vanished like a bad dream.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
But you.
He was obsessed with you.
And now that I'm
standing next to you,
I can understand why.
He had everything, but
that, it just wasn't enough.
We need the
medics in room 512.
Call the police
and send ambulance.
You're not going to
get away with this.

could be three,
likely armed and dangerous.
I think I will.
No.
