The Killer is Calling (2025) Movie Script

1
911, what's your emergency?
This is 911.
Are you experiencing an
emergency?
Hello?
If you're unable to speak,
press a button on your phone.
Is this the person that has
been calling the station?
Good evening, Harry.
Stop! Stop! Stop! Please!
No! Don't hurt her. Please!
Can you straighten
the spike strips?
Well, it should
be no problem.
Just need to get it
under my welding torch at home.
- Hey.
- Alright. Thanks, Arnold.
Give it a try.
So, this is who
you're speaking to.
It's a photo system.
It's new. It only works
in a town this small.
911, what is your emergency?
Who is this? Is Faye there?
Susan, Jake's a trainee.
Ma'am, what's your emergency?
Ed's drunk off his ass.
Sooner than usual.
Are you somewhere
safe right now?
He pissed on the
karaoke machine.
And where is Ed now?
Outside the bar picking
a fight
with the fire hydrant.
What's your address
or location?
Just pick him up before he
destroys my bar, Faye.
Call back and get the address.
Isn't it on the screen?
Always confirm.
We're closed, sorry.
Ma'am, I need the
address for the bar.
10 Admiral's Way.
Don't you have the address?
I'm just gonna speak with
some officers, ma'am.
I'm not hanging up.
I don't care if
you hang up,
just come get him.
She just hung up on me.
That's Susan.
10-15, intoxicated male
outside a bar.
Name is Ed.
Attempting to damage a fire
hydrant
at 10 Admiral's Way.
Ooh, my money's
on the fire hydrant.
It's your turn.
No, no, no, I went
last time.
It's your turn.
One, two, three.
- Ah, dammit!
- Good luck.
All right, so because that's
not an ongoing situation,
you can take the new call.
911, what is your emergency?
Hello? Yeah, I need, I need
help.
My wife's pregnant and
there's a lot of blood.
I don't know what to do.
Please!
Okay, okay.
Well, we're gonna give you
some help.
Um, an ambulance.
Let me just...
They're sending an ambulance
right now.
You and the baby
are gonna be okay.
Are you still there? Hello?
Hello?
Excuse me, are
you still there?
Yeah...
Okay, Donny, my name is
Faye.
I'm gonna help you.
I don't know what to do.
She's losing so much blood
and I don't know what's going on
right now.
Okay. You're
at 21 Greenleaf Street?
Yeah, uh 21 Greenleaf
Street, yeah.
There's a lot of blood.
Please. I don't even know
what's going on.
Okay, Donny, you need to
check
to see if your wife
is giving birth.
Can you see
the head?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, wow.
Oh, wow. Yeah, I,
I think I see his head.
Okay. Ask her not to push
unless she feels she really
needs to.
We wanna wait for the
ambulance, okay?
No, no, no, no. Oh, he's
coming. Yeah,
I, I see his whole head.
I...
Why isn't he crying?
He's not
crying. He's blue.
I don't know
what's going on.
Please, can you please
just send someone?
I don't know what's going on.
Okay, Donny,
I need you to check
for the umbilical cord.
I don't know.
Why isn't he breathing?
Is he gonna be okay?
Check to see if the umbilical
cord
is choking him around his
neck, okay?
Yeah, there's something,
something around his neck.
Please, just please.
Okay, good. Now, I need you
to take it
and pull it gently
over his head, all right?
Okay, okay. Okay, yeah, I
think it pulled it off.
Come on little guy, please.
He's okay he's... he's okay.
He's crying. He's, he's
crying. He's good.
Is there...
baby, they're here.
He's okay.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
Well done, Faye.
That was amazing.
I don't know how you do that.
Stay so calm.
I really screwed that up.
It takes practice.
You'll get used to it.
- Are you okay?
- I'm fine.
It's all right to not
be fine.
That was an intense one.
Yeah. No, I'm fine.
I'm fine, Hamlin, thank you.
It's calls like this that
remind you,
we can't control
the outcome.
All we can do is
show up 100 percent.
Now, back to it until the night
crew arrives.
Uh Jake, did you place
the food order?
Yes, sir. Cake and pizza
for the party tonight.
Oh, you are strong.
Oh, gentlemen.
Oh, ladies of
this here, fine place.
All right, Ed, your
palace awaits.
Y'all don't mind if I take a
little napsky here, do ya?
Okay, have a good night.
Hope it's a quiet one!
Faye, look what happened
to mainland PD.
Fire.
All their boats. Arson.
Wow.
Got an APB for a white
male, six-foot.
Saito, is it okay
if I leave my tools?
Uh, sure.
But I gotta take this
strip home to fix it.
Thanks, Arnold.
- Night, Saito.
- Night.
Guys, pizza will be
here in a minute.
- Thank you, Jake.
- Enjoy.
Thank you. Yeah.
Uh, thank you.
You can just bring it inside.
Go decompress.
No, I have to get ready for
my in-laws this weekend.
We're telling them about
the pregnancy.
Trying to show them I can
take care of their daughter.
Hmm. Good luck.
Thanks.
Hi! Alex.
Mom!
Sweetheart. Oh.
Look at you.
Oh, I love your hair.
Thank you.
- Are you all settled in?
- Yes.
- Hey, Faye.
- Hi.
Guess what Chris did today?
Uh, Stella got me outta
the wheelchair.
- Wow.
- He's graduating to crutches.
That's great.
Yeah, I'm almost ready
for Mount Mitchell again.
Not that you wanted to
do it the first time.
I wasn't the one complaining.
I'll be back.
If we end this round
here, I win, so.
No, we're playing best
two out of three.
Okay. You're on. Rematch.
Hey. Can Stella stay
for game night?
Oh honey, this is her job.
I'm sure she wants
to get home to her family.
Actually, I'd love to stay
for game night,
if you all don't mind.
I live alone
so it's nice to have company
some nights.
And if we have four people we
could play Kemps.
And that
drawing game.
We would love to have you.
Stella has been a lifesaver.
I still can't believe we got you
last minute.
You saved us a trip or two
the mainland every week.
I am happy to help.
Hmm. You girls want some
snacks?
I got some extras.
I'll be at work all week, so.
- Can I help?
- Yeah.
You two don't know each
other from school, do you?
I was a few grades above Alex.
Do I know your parents?
Probably not.
Uh, my sister
raised me, actually.
Hmm.
Here, can I take this?
Yeah.
Thank you.
This is so sweet of you.
It's so nice to have you home.
Hey um, can I ask,
are you and Dad okay?
Of course.
Y-you two just
seem kind of off.
Been a lot of changes with
you being gone,
and then
with the accident.
Here.
Okay.
Those two are hitting it off.
Was work okay?
Yeah, you know, it's work.
Uh, speaking of work,
they officially offered me
the desk.
I can be done
with trucking.
We won't have to worry
about this happening again.
Do you have time
to think about it?
Yeah, I'll think about it.
- Could be nice.
- In Los Angeles?
Chris, I'm not leaving my job.
You know there's emergencies
in Los Angeles, right?
More of them,
believe it or not.
All right, come on.
We're missing game night.
So, you and I are partners.
Then we all draw cards from the
middle
until we get four
of a kind.
Right, when you have four of
a kind,
you give Alex
the secret signal.
And then I yell "Kemps"
and we get a point.
But if Chris or I see your
signal first
and yell "Kemps"
we get the points.
I'll figure it out as we go.
You'll get it.
I'm a real, ahem,
ace at this game.
Kemps, Faye.
Come on.
You two are unbeatable.
Okay, fine. What's the signal?
We just clear our throats
before saying
an important word.
If I were to say there
are, ahem,
three of us at this table,
your mom knows I need a three.
That's genius.
Okay. Who's ready
for another round?
Come on.
Hamlin?
That's horrible.
Is everyone okay?
What?
No. No, Jake's a trainee.
I'll be there in 15. Okay.
Every one of the dispatchers
got food poisoning.
They're on their way
to the hospital, so.
That's horrible.
But you were there all day.
I can do a video call
from the station. Sorry.
See you later.
Thanks for all your
help, Stella. Bye.
Hey! Do not eat
any of the pizza.
You missed the party?
Thank heavens.
Croft's been on patrol
so he missed the fun, too.
Are the guys okay?
Yeah, hospital seems
to think so.
I feel terrible.
I placed the order.
Yeah, I was looking forward
to eating that cake.
It's not your fault, Jake.
All right. What do
we got today?
Jake, if Bree needs you,
you can leave. There's only
one dispatch on
at night usually anyway.
No, no, I'm here to help.
I actually already took two
calls before you got here.
Um, some kid shattered a guy's
window with a baseball.
And someone's mad that the
ferry's late
'cause of weather
off the mainland.
Did you log them?
Yep. Starting to
get the hang of it.
Look at you go. All right.
I'm here for support.
Hey.
Hey, we're on to a new game.
You're just in time.
You're on Dad's team again.
Oh, I don't know if I'm gonna
have time tonight
but it's lovely
to watch you all.
Well, we can do it as a
three-person game.
Alex, start us off.
Ah, sorry, guys.
911, what's your emergency?
Are you experiencing
an emergency?
He killed my husband.
Please help.
Okay, we're sending someone
to you. I need your address.
He's still here.
He's in the house.
What's your address?
I need an address to send help.
Okay.
10-68 on the northeast
side of the island.
No address yet.
For Drunk Ed. I'm on my way.
I can still hear him.
- Who's there?
- A man I don't know.
Do you know where you are?
I'm in my daughter's closet.
Do you know the address?
It's 112 Oceanside.
112 Oceanside?
Yes.
112 Oceanside, Croft.
Copy that, 112 Oceanside.
Caller is in a closet
somewhere in their home.
Okay, is your daughter
home with you right now?
No. She's out of town.
She's in college.
Okay, is there anything in
the closet
that you can use
as a weapon?
She's gonna have to live
without her father now.
Ma'am, I want you
to listen to my voice.
Can you take a breath?
And probably without
her mother, too.
What's your name, ma'am?
I know you're very worried
right now.
I understand. I have a
daughter, too. She's in college.
- She is?
- Yes.
And the best thing that you can
do for your daughter right now
is to answer my questions.
Unless you hear the man,
and then you be very quiet.
Is your daughter's
closet upstairs or downstairs?
You don't realize
she's all you have.
I know you're scared.
And then, bang, they're gone.
And what do you have to live
for after that?
You can live for your
daughter.
All right? So tell me where you
are so that I can help you.
Your family, they're
in the island?
Yes.
I would take my girl on the
boat
to fish on the weekends.
Did you do that?
Yes, I have.
And you can too.
Did she go to Pacific
Academy?
Play in the little league game?
Yes.
Then maybe our girls
played together.
We could have met.
We did meet.
10-23, door's open.
Saito's in back.
I'm going in.
Ma'am, the police
are there now.
Can you hear them?
I know you.
What's your name?
We have a male,
deceased.
Apparent blunt force trauma
and stab wounds.
A lot of blood in here.
It was a long time ago.
You wouldn't remember.
Do you know where the
man is in your house?
Tell me where the man is.
What will you tell my
daughter, hmm?
What will you say when you
tell her, her parents are dead?
Which closet are you in?
We have another
body. Bedroom closet. Female.
What will you say when you
tell her
that you say that you
couldn't save--
Faye?
Who is this?
How do you tell a little
girl her family is dead?
I'm still on the phone with
a caller on premises.
Copy, we're looking.
Did you see what
happened tonight?
I saw. I killed them.
Jake, call SWAfrom the mainland.
Hi, yes,
this is Bracken dispatch.
We need immediate
SWAT response on the island.
We have two casualties in a home
on the island.
Suspect is armed
with a knife and is at large.
What made you call this in?
I wanted to talk to you.
To hear what it's like
to call you
after something
terrible happens.
Okay, all right, so let's
work to resolve this
so that it doesn't
get worse.
I'm not concerned about
things getting worse.
Then why call me?
To tell you that
I have to kill again tonight.
Until you can tell me
why I'm doing all of this.
Can you help me understand?
No, no, no, no, no I need
to hear it from you.
How can I know what
you're feeling?
Because you're the reason I'm
doing all this, Faye.
More than anyone, it's you who
needs to witness this tonight.
I'm the reason you're
doing this?
If you were to warn anyone,
if you disobey me,
I will kill your family.
Tonight, all comes down
to the choices you make.
How soon can you get a boat
from the mainland out here?
Well, what about the ferry?
Is it large enough
for the SWAT vehicles?
Suspect threatened to
keep killing. What's your ETA?
The person you have called
does not have voicemail set up.
Please try your call again.
God.
Conditions are too rough for
a smaller civilian boat.
SWAT's looking for a boat
that can bring their cars.
The arson.
Dammit. He probably set
the boats on fire.
We're coordinating with the
ferry but they're just docking
on the far side
of the island now.
How long?
An hour 'til they're
on this side
of the island and refueled.
Two hours for SWAto get here?
What about from
the other cities?
Well, we have a boat coming
from up the coast
but that'll
be four hours.
Okay, okay.
Told you not to warn
anyone.
There will be consequences.
Wh-what are you talking about?
I'm not playing games!
He knows I texted.
You think he's here?
How else would he know?
Are the windows locked?
They don't even open.
Help me bar the door.
Yeah, okay.
Hey. Hey, what's
with all the racket?
Can't you see I'm
trying to get some rest?
Also, I got an update from
the hospital.
They said Hamlin's feeling
better
and he's gonna be discharged
in the next half hour
but the others are still
in bad shape.
So, at least we're
gonna have Hamlin helping us.
Oh, thank God. Okay.
Hey, what the heck
is goin' on?
Not now, Ed.
Chris? Chris?
Hey, sweetie. Take a look at
this
and tell me it doesn't
resemble a clown?
It's supposed to be
the space station.
Okay, look guys, something
terrible's happening.
There's been a murder
on the island.
Oh, my God.
Who?
Nobody that we know.
Did they catch
the person?
We don't know anything about
the suspect yet
but he did call 911
and make a threat.
He said he might put
my family in danger.
What?
Look, so listen, Croft's on
his way over.
I want you to stay inside,
lock the doors and the windows.
How soon until the
police get here?
Five minutes,
just as a precaution.
- Sweetie.
- That's all I know.
I've gotta make some phone calls
but we've got SWAT coming over,
just to be safe.
SWAT?
Can you come home?
I'll come home as soon as I
sort out
SWAT getting here,
okay?
I love you.
I love you, Mom.
I love you.
Okay, Jake, we've
gotta get the uh --
Hey, let me in.
Hey, does someone
just wanna explain
to me what's goin' on here?
You're safe in here, okay?
But just tell me
what's goin' on.
- I can't talk about it.
- Why not?
Everything's been bagged and
tagged from the crime scene.
Whoa. Somebody was killed.
Hey, would you shut up?
Guy was a bookie I used to
deal with a couple years ago.
His name's Harry Dorrell.
People owed him money.
Didn't have a ton of friends.
Hey, let me see that picture!
- Would you shut up?
- Shut up!
911, what is your emergency?
Yes, Chief, just a moment.
Faye! It's Hamlin.
Hamlin, is everyone okay?
Hey, listen...
Are you okay?
I pushed you.
Starting out I had you taking
calls
before you were trained.
Page the hospital.
Have them call us.
I've failed you.
I've failed our island.
Faye, please.
Wait, wait, wait.
No, stop!
Get a wellness
check on Hamlin.
911, what's your emergency?
Get Dr. Flannery.
Crash cart right here,
please!
Hello? Hello?
Are you with Hamlin?
He was cut in his throat.
His throat got cut.
His throat was cut.
I'm going over there now.
Do you want me to radio Croft?
No, no,
it's standard procedure.
Leave a cruiser
at the scene of a direct threat.
I gotta get him into surgery.
Where are the cops?
Five minutes out.
Security said a guy just fled
on his own.
Ran into the parking lot.
Okay, tell them they need
to apprehend him.
I have to start lockdown.
I gotta go.
- Who is this?
- They have to stop that man.
I have a patient dying,
ma'am. I have to go.
No you--
Dammit.
Who is it?
Who are you talking to?
Hello?
Donny, this is Faye from
dispatch.
We spoke earlier.
I need a favor.
Uh, of course.
Can, can you
tell us what's going on?
Someone's committed a crime
in the hospital
and I need to know
if the suspect
is fleeing
from the parking lot?
Go there now?
Go there now but do not
intervene.
Do not put yourself
in danger.
Okay, okay. Hold on.
Everybody
in your rooms.
Lock the door.
This is a full lockdown.
I'm sorry, I,
I gotta get out there.
I'm sorry I--
Stop. Stop.
Do not leave.
Hi, it's Bree.
Leave it at the beep.
Honey, please, please call me
back.
Um, and lock the doors
and windows, okay?
There's a crazy
guy out there.
Uh, and get a knife just
in case. Please call me back.
I don't see.
Okay, wait, there's a,
there's a red truck
and it's turning left.
Red pickup truck.
Red pickup.
Get the license.
Okay, okay. It's
IAT, IAT5.
Or, S?
IAT5 or S.
Okay, it could be
TS. And there's a...
Could be TS.
There's two more
numbers at the end.
Two more numbers at the end.
I'm sorry, he sped outta her.
You said
he went left?
Left. Yeah,
he's going north.
Okay, did you see the driver?
No, not really.
No, I'm sorry.
Okay, thank you.
Of course, yeah,
it's the least I could do.
Saito, skip the hospital.
Suspect left going north
in a red pickup.
Copy. Northbound from
the hospital
in a red pickup.
Any idea who this guy is?
We're running his plates now
and it starts with IAand we're gonna figure
out the rest.
Um, look, my house is
that way.
Can, can you just check in
to see if my wife is okay?
48 Stanford Street.
48 Stanford. 10-4. En route.
Suspect's plate starts
with IAT. Copy.
- What are you doing?
- Someone has to check on her.
We need to find the truck.
Well, it's in that direction,
the same road.
- They'll see the truck.
- It's on the other side
of the island.
- She's pregnant, Faye. Please?
She's not picking up.
Okay.
Find that plate.
We need to know
who the hell he is.
Saito, if you come up on that
truck
or see it I need you
to turn off and pursue.
Copy that, Faye.
We got an update
from the ferry captain.
All right, tell him to call
me the second he gets
to this side of the island.
Okay.
He says there weren't any trucks
matching that description
on the ferry today.
So, that means...
if he burned the boats
on the mainland yesterday,
he walked
on to the ferry today.
Still no matches on the plate
but I'm running
different end combinations.
I'm gonna tell you something
you don't wanna hear.
SWAT is on their way
and this is gonna
be over soon.
I wanna work with
you to figure out the situation.
SWAT doesn't have any
boats
and I don't think the
ferry's even left the island yet
so we have plenty of time.
Plenty of time for what?
To right wrongs.
I've done something wrong?
This whole damn island has
and I'm gonna make you all feel
what I feel every damn day.
How can I understand
if I don't know who you are?
Hmm, that's a nice try, Faye.
You have 30 minutes
to stop this.
To figure out
why you deserve it.
Why I deserve this?
Oh, come on. If you don't
know by now,
you really are too far gone.
Do you want me to
figure it out
or do you wanna
just keep killing people?
I don't wanna do any of this,
Faye.
What I want is justice.
Justice for who?
If you wanna see your family
alive,
you will put down
that phone.
He has a camera in here.
In here?
He saw me texting Croft.
Well, how would he...
It was the delivery
man. It was him.
You think he poisoned
the food?
Less people to try
and stop him?
No.
He knew it would get me back
in here to take his calls.
- Hey!
- Where's the camera?
Stop! Whoa, Faye!
What are you doing?
Faye?
He's seen everything that
we've done.
Let's hope those
were his only eyes on us.
He just sent me a text.
He has my number.
Sweep this place.
Make sure there's
no other bugs.
And I'm gonna check
my call logs
because I was getting
breathing messages
about every week for over a
month.
Maybe I missed something.
Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm on it.
911,
what's your emergency?
Prison.
Prison.
911,
what's your emergency?
Ferry. He came on the ferry.
Okay.
When was this?
911, what is
your emergency?
Be quiet and don't
move
or I'll kill your wife,
Jake.
You got that? Just say yes.
Jake, do I need to hurt her
to show you I'm serious?
Please,
please don't hurt her.
You're going to keep Faye at
the station for me
until I tell you I'm ready.
Do not tell anyone about
this call.
Those are my rules.
You break them,
your wife dies.
Who is this?
Don't let me down.
I checked every nook
and cranny.
Everything that
guy brought in.
I wish I saw his face.
He was right here.
Did you figure anything out?
Um yeah, I think he was
in prison up until yesterday.
He planned all
of this from prison?
Well, he must have had
someone working with him.
You know, someone must have
had to bring the truck to him
if he didn't bring it over
on the ferry.
You think he's working
with someone on the island?
Looks that way.
Are you okay?
Yeah. Uh...
do you wanna go check
the trash bins?
Maybe he dropped something
in one of those.
No, I can,
I can check on that.
Yeah.
Okay.
Faye, where you goin'?
Where ya goin', Faye?
Hey, Faye!
Faye! Where ya goin'?
Hey, Faye, Faye, get away
from the door.
Get away from the door!
Get away from the door!
Jake, let me go. Please.
I can't.
He said he'll hurt my wife
and my kid if I let you leave.
Hey. You get away
from her, man.
You just step back!
There's no need for that.
Okay. Look,
I understand that you wanna help
your family and protect them.
Look. He sent me this.
That's my house.
He knows where we live.
I've been trying to call
Bree
but she's not picking up.
You're texting him?
No! No, no, he,
he must have got my number
when he intercepted
the pizza delivery.
Okay, Jake, he can't hear
or see us anymore, okay?
We don't have to obey him.
You are helping a killer.
A killer that will
do terrible things
if we don't stop him.
Okay?
No. No, I'm sorry, I can't
because I don't know if he's
got a, a camera outside,
or a mic in here that I missed.
He just said...
to keep you here 'til he says to
let you leave.
When he's ready.
Wait, wait,
give me your phone.
- Jake, come on.
- Gimme your phone.
Captain, this is dispatch.
Thank you, Captain.
Ferry's coming around our
side of the island to fuel up
and then headed to get SWAT.
- The red truck. Is it yours?
- No!
Were you helping
him the whole time?
No! He only
just called, Faye.
Look, I'm sorry, okay?
And I know you hate me
right now.
So, if we can figure out
why he's doing this,
we can figure
out who he plans to kill next.
And who's helping him do it.
Okay, okay.
So, can I go to the evidence
locker then?
Because whatever
this is about,
it has to do
with the dead bookie Harry.
Yeah.
And I'll look at what
they brought in
from the crime scene tonight.
Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Hi, it's Bree.
Leave it at the beep.
Sorry, there is no more room
to record new messages.
Harry Dorrell, June 8th.
Ten years ago.
Come on, come on.
Ten years ago.
What happened ten years ago?
911, are you experiencing
an emergency?
It's Miriam. And well,
my house is quite cold
and I was wondering if--
He's lost and it's getting
dark out.
Oh, it's Miriam, by the way,
and the dog's name is Cupcake.
So, Harry was suspected
of arson ten years ago.
He gets off.
All we know about his case are
on these tapes,
somewhere at least.
His ledger. Two names
with outstanding balances.
So, we have a dead bookie,
owed a lot of money by Arnold.
The handyman?
It's the only Arnold I know
on the island.
And a Michael.
Who's Michael?
There's a few of them
on the island
but none of them seem
like the type.
But what's the date?
It's about ten years ago.
Arnold the handyman,
a murderer?
The first killing was
after he went home.
No, doesn't sound like him.
They could be
working together.
He has a lot of debt.
Harry's eager
to collect and he...
Arnold kills him.
But what's his issue with you?
No idea.
Let me call him.
See if we can feel him out.
Hi there, it's
Arnold, your 24-7 handyman.
Leave your number
and I'll get back to you.
Hey Arnold, it's Faye from
dispatch.
I need to talk to you.
Call me as soon as you can.
I can't believe Arnold
would kill a fly,
let alone Harry Dorrell.
It's about time someone
got that bastard.
Do you know Harry?
Oh.
Now you listen to me, huh?
What can you tell
us about him?
That he's a low-down, dirty,
son of a you know what.
And I'm glad he's dead.
How did you know him?
I'd owed him money
couple years ago.
Arnold owed him money.
Did you know Arnold?
Yep. Played cards with him.
What about Michael?
What about you let me
out and I'll tell ya?
Not gonna happen.
I'm a sitting duck in here.
You guys keeping me in here
is gonna get me killed.
Look, if you don't cooperate,
I'll have Saito charge you
with obstructing
an investigation.
You think you're pretty
important, huh?
Ed.
This guy has my wife.
It's so much bigger
than you right now.
You know, every time I come
in here, you're here.
I bet you see more of me than
you do your own husband.
Huh?
I'm just sayin'. I mean.
Let me talk to him.
Yeah. We're gonna
have a little chat.
How ya doin'?
Do you or do you not know
Michael?
He was in prison.
He got released yesterday.
You know, everybody in town
used to talk about how you'd be
the one who'd go places.
But you just ended up being the
girl in high school
who got pregnant.
And that kinda put a
damper on your plans
to do something with your life,
didn't it?
Yeah.
You're gonna spend a lot more
than one night in jail
if you keep this up.
Sounds like you're
on a power trip.
Hmm.
You know, you could
be a hero.
You could save the island.
Yeah, right.
You could walk into the bar
and everyone will clap for you.
You could start a new chapter
tonight. Or...
you could let people die while
you ridicule me.
But I can promise you this,
you're not gonna say anything
to me that I haven't already
said to myself.
Okay, Ed? So,
what's it gonna be?
Harry was a loan shark.
You know, guys would need bread,
they'd go see him,
but he had problems with people
paying him back.
So, he started
making threats.
Decided he'd
scare everybody straight.
What did he do?
Faye, I think I found
that call you're talking about.
You're gonna wanna hear this.
911,
what's your emergency?
Help, please!
Our house is on fire and we
can't get out!
Okay, uh, all right,
what's your address?
1514 Wilson Street.
Please hurry!
Just one moment, ma'am.
11-71, 1514 William Street.
Fire trucks have been
dispatched, okay? Don't panic.
Station is right around
the corner.
It's getting hard to
breathe.
My son has asthma.
It's gonna be okay,
Johnny baby, I promise.
Police are on their
way, I mean, the firefighters.
We have a unit turning on to
William Street
as we speak, okay?
- I don't hear them!
- Stop it.
They should
be right there.
We're gonna save you.
I don't think
they're coming!
St... stop.
Stop it. Stop it!
Ma'am, are
you still there?
Before I was
done training,
Hamlin believed in me
enough
to let me man the phones
by myself that night.
She said "Wilson"
but I heard "William".
And by the time I got the
address right,
they were gone.
I'm so sorry, Faye.
Yeah, me too.
It's the article on the fire.
It says, "The family was
survived
by the husband and father,
Michael Draper."
Michael.
That must be our suspect.
I didn't know it was arson.
They said it was an accident.
So, Harry started the fire
that killed Michael's family
and gets off?
Michael wanted revenge.
Didn't waste any time after
getting outta jail.
I thought he left town.
I should have seen this.
So, he wanted revenge on
Harry, and you,
for sending help
to the wrong house.
But Hamlin?
He... must have known that
Hamlin let a trainee
man the phones that night.
You have to call Michael.
That's what he wants, right?
For you to confess?
You have to tell him that Bree
has nothing to do with this.
Okay.
Five minutes out.
Copy that. Please hurry.
We got a name on the suspect,
Michael Draper.
Copy, Michael Drape.
Time's up.
I know who you are,
Michael Draper.
And I know why you feel
wronged.
And you're right,
you were.
I made the biggest mistake of
my life
that night not saving
your family.
And I want you to
know how deeply
I regret what happened.
I live with the weight
of my failure every day.
And I know that's never gonna
be enough
to undo the pain that
I've caused you.
Now I, think
if, if we work together,
we can peacefully resolve this.
No.
But Michael, you said that if
I figure out
who you are and
why you're doing this--
I told you not to involve
the cops
and you did.
I told you
there would be consequences.
Michael, listen.
There have to be consequence.
Is taking Bree justice?
She's the wife of my trainee.
And my family...
my family
has nothing to do with this.
I have one more name
on my list.
If you keep the cops away
from me tonight,
I spare your family.
Time for you to make
a choice, Faye.
Understood. Thank you.
What'd he say about Bree?
Nothing. He just said to keep
the police away from him.
Well, do you think he's gonna
hurt her?
She can't be on
his list, right?
I don't know.
Who was that call from?
The docks. They're refueling
now
and they're gonna be on
the mainland in about an hour.
Okay.
The person
you have called
does not have voicemail
set up.
Please try your
call again.
Okay, so who else does
he owe revenge to?
Could be the whole
police department.
Yeah, but he singled
out Hamlin and me.
They let Harry off the hook.
Yeah, but that wasn't the
police.
That would've been the judge.
Yeah, that'd be
the same judge
who ruled the fire
an accident.
Yeah, Michael was so pissed
that he actually went after him.
He was in prison for
assaulting a judge?
Attempted murder.
He wanted
Harry to get the death sentence
and the judge let him off.
We've only had Langford on
the island
for well over ten years.
Well, it's the same
judge that ruled on my divorce.
We gotta warn him.
Jake's residence,
negative on the truck.
I'm walking up
to the front door now.
Is Bree okay?
Police!
Open the door!
Lights are off.
Seems like nobody's there.
He has Bree.
He has Bree!
Bree is not home.
I repeat, Bree is not home.
You need to go to Langford's
house, now!
5 White Pine Lane.
5 White Pine Lane.
Copy.
Let's hope we're not too late.
Where are you?
I can't go all night
with a shattered window.
It's supposed to rain later.
Judge, this is police
dispatch.
You are in danger.
I need you to get out
of your house to somewhere safe.
What are you talking about?
The window is from a kid
playing baseball.
I had to convince Arnold
to come fix it this late.
In fact, I see
his headlights.
Arnold?
No. No, do not let him in.
He's a suspect
in a recent killing.
Wait a minute,
that's not Arnold's car.
Judge Langford?
I'm here to fix your window.
Arnold sent me.
There's a guy
at the door.
I can't tell what
he looks like.
Okay, are your doors locked?
No. No, it's not.
Oh, my God. He opened it.
I can hear him coming in.
Hello? Judge?
Here to fix a window?
Arnold sent me.
He's coming
right here.
Uh, h--, hi.
- Hi.
- Hi, there.
; Arnold sent me
to fix a window.
I thought I'd let myself in.
Anyone else here?
Thought I heard voices.
Tell him that you're
ordering a pizza.
I'm just on the
phone ordering a pizza.
The window's over there
in the drawing room.
Is this the same man that
assaulted you ten years ago?
If it is, say "pepperoni."
Pepperoni.
Okay.
Can you get to the front door
without him seeing you?
No, wait, Faye.
Um, no.
If Michael knows that we're
helping him,
he might hurt Bree.
Okay, what about
the back door?
- Faye.
- Uh, no, no.
Did you hear me?
I am not letting
anyone else die.
What about a bedroom window?
Yeah. I just need to
get my credit card
from my bedroom.
Hey, I need
to talk to you!
Get up! Now! Get up!
Uh, I'm in my car.
I think I lost him.
I'm pulling out.
Okay, all right. I think,
I think your best bet is--
No. No, no, no, no.
He, he's getting in his car.
What do I do?
Okay, okay. Go to the ferry.
Tell the ferry to wait
for the judge.
Forget the judge's house,
make your way to the docks.
The suspect's name
is Michael Draper.
He is in pursuit of the judge.
His name is Judge Langford.
Docks, copy that.
Yes, he should be getting
there in about five
to ten minutes.
We're gonna get you
off the island.
The ferry's heading
to get SWAT.
Okay, tell them to
wait for the judge.
I'm sorry, but the judge is
currently in danger
and he needs
to get on that ferry.
Just a few minutes.
Thank you.
Judge, are you there?
I'm moving down Main
toward Lexington.
He's on my tail!
Pull up the street
camera on Main.
Okay, thank you.
Ferry's gonna wait
for a few minutes.
- On Main?
- Uh, yeah.
Okay, left on Morella.
Morella?
Yeah, it's a shortcut
to the docks.
Wait. It's gonna take him
past Arnold's house.
If he's working for Michael,
that could be dangerous
Okay. I need you
to take over.
I'm gonna have
to call Arnold.
Hi Judge, this is Jake,
Faye's coworker.
I'm gonna help
you get to the ferry, all right?
It's a bit late.
Arnold, it's Faye.
You sent Michael Draper
to Judge Langford's house.
To fix a window.
Okay.
He intends
to kill Judge Langford.
Are you working with him?
Oh, my God. I, I
didn't know.
M-Michael's a... well, we played
cards about a decade ago.
He asked for a job.
Told him he could take nights.
I honestly didn't mean
to get mixed up in anything.
I, I didn't know.
Okay. I need you and Doreen
to stay inside.
The suspect is about
to drive by your house.
They're coming
down Morella now?
Stay inside.
I'm getting the spike strip.
Spike strip?
Arnold, stay inside!
Michael's catching up, Faye.
I gotta make up
for my mess.
I'm gonna blow out
his tires.
He's gotta keep
going that way.
Arnold, get back inside.
I see this
guy's truck coming.
That'll stop him!
Arnold, get away
from the road.
His tire blew out.
He's off to the side out there.
We got him!
- Arnold?
- I can see the docks.
I see, I see the ferry.
I see it.
I'm at the ferry.
You're just gonna keep goin'.
Judge Langford's car
is pulling up.
No red truck in sight.
What the hell did
you do, Arnold?
Michael, you lied to
me.
I gave you a job.
Keys, now!
Gimme that!
What's it gonna be, Faye?
Arnold or the judge? You pick.
Please, don't!
What do you mean,
Michael, "you pick"?
You put them
in this situation.
You're responsible
for how it turns out.
Which one dies?
Uh...
Is he on the ferry?
He's getting on now.
Did they leave?
You can go.
Save Arnold.
Don't touch him.
He's innocent.
The ferry was
for the cops.
Do not touch him.
Okay,
that's your decision.
You'll have
to live with it.
And so is interfering
after I told you not to.
After I told you your family's
lives were at stake.
You
really ought to think
about where your
priorities lie, Faye.
What's going on, Faye?
Why, why did he say that the
ferry was for the cops?
Maybe he knew it was
gonna go pick up SWAT?
No. No, something's
not right.
Tell them to get
off the ferry.
What?
Tell them to get off
the ferry. Right now.
Saito, get everyone
off the ferry now.
Our suspect was on
the ferry
and I think he might've done
something to it.
Please copy.
Oh!
Is that the ferry?
Four people work on that boat.
And the judge. And the judge...
He was gonna take out
the entire SWAT team.
Yeah. We put him on that
boat. We put him there.
It'll be hours for the
mainland to get a boat out here.
Dispatch the ambulance.
Okay.
Saito? Saito, are you there?
I'm okay.
Okay, what happened?
There was an
explosion on the ferry.
I, I can see the judge
on the deck.
Are they alive?
They're, they're alive. I--
They're trying to get into the
lifeboats, I think.
They're alive?
Yes, yeah.
Yeah, they're alive.
But the ferry, oh God,
it's sinking.
Copy that.
Stay and help with rescue.
Faye, we have to pull Croft
off your house.
Bree is still
out there.
She could be anywhere
on the island.
We have to find out
who the accomplice is.
Get us an address or something.
Any luck with the plate?
I'm narrowing it down.
Hello?
Arnold, it's Faye
at dispatch.
Are you guys okay?
Yeah, we're fine.
But Michael took my truck
and left.
The green one.
Okay, he took Arnold's
green truck.
All right, do you know
anything about who he's working
with on the island?
Suspect now
in a green pickup truck
that belongs to Arnold.
License plate SPO723.
Green truck, copy.
Green truck,
copy that.
I don't. I'm so sorry.
Okay.
Is the red truck
still there?
Yeah. Yeah, the tires are
pretty shredded though.
Okay, can you get me
the plate, please?
Sure. It's IAT506.
IAT506. Thanks, Arnold.
Registered
to a Catherine Surhan.
Why does that sound
familiar?
Catherine Surhan, S-U-R-H-A-N.
"Family is survived by
husband, father Michael Draper
and his wife's younger sister,
Catherine Surhan."
So, she's still alive.
She'd be in her mid-twenties.
She let him borrow her truck.
You think this girl
is the accomplice?
I don't know any Catherines
on the island
but I know that face.
Croft, the nurse is the
accomplice
and she's in my house.
Croft?
Croft, here.
We see headlights approaching at
the end of the road.
But can't see
what kind of car it is.
The suspect is armed
and dangerous.
You have to stop
the car.
He's at the end of your road.
I'm going up there now.
She's muted me.
What are you doing?
Truckers use channel 19.
Chris, Chris can you hear me?
Chris.
Hello?
Chris, Stella's not who she
says she is.
Okay? You need to
get Alex outta there
and you guys need
to go somewhere safe.
Anywhere. A neighbor's. Okay?
What is she doing?
Oh no.
It's Croft.
The driver's pulling up.
He's not responding.
Stop!
Stop!
Get back.
What are you doing?
Get back!
Dad!
Croft, he's in my house.
Just get him outta
here. Get him out!
- Hey!
- Don't!
Don't you hurt her!
Don't your hurt her!
Croft, he's taking
my family!
Faye. Faye! Faye!
Stop! Faye!
Faye, stop! Stop!
- You can't leave.
- Ah!
I'm sorry.
You can't leave.
I can't just sit there, okay?
Just, just...
Well, you should be out
trying to save your family.
- Stop!
- Okay? I have to leave!
No!
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
You just can't leave, okay?
- Just let me go!
- If you leave--
- Jake!
- No!
If you leave,
she gets hurt, okay?
Jake, no!
I'm sorry. Stop,
okay?
Stop. Ed.
- No!
- Get back!
Let her go!
- Jake, just let me go.
- Stop, okay?
Okay, just relax.
Jake....
I'm sorry.
Ja--
Ed.
- Hey.
- Stop it. Get back.
- Stop!
- Okay.
Stop. Both of you.
Okay.
Both of you, get back inside.
Jake.
Stop.
No!
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't mean to.
I didn't mean to.
Faye, Faye, what do we do?
Go to the kitchen.
Go to the kitchen
and get the first aid kit.
- Okay. Okay.
- Now.
All right, he's bleeding out.
Okay, it's gonna be okay.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
No. No, no, don't.
Don't, okay. Gauze. Gauze.
Gauze.
He's bleeding out.
Okay, okay. Here.
It's okay.
It's gonna be okay.
Yeah.
Painkillers.
Yeah. Painkillers.
I don't, I don't see any.
They're in the bottom corner.
I don't see any.
Where? I don't see any.
Go! What are you waiting
for? Just go!
10-17 dispatch paramedics
to the precinct.
Faye? Faye?
Ah!
Chris. Chris.
Are you okay? Is Alex?
We're tied up in the
back of a, an old truck.
Alex is with me.
Okay, can you see
anything? Any roads?
We're leaving our house.
Past the neighbor's, barn.
- Which direction?
- South.
Now we're turning left
on to the service road.
Okay, let me know
when you exit.
Okay. I will.
Chris...
I'm sorry that I
haven't been there with you
and Alex all those nights.
But I'm fighting for us now.
I know you are.
Well, we're turning left
on to a dirt...
road.
Must have passed
two before this one.
There's a house.
It looks pretty rundown.
We've stopped.
I have to go. Love you.
I love you, too.
Chris? Alex?
This was my home.
The home I shared
with my family.
Oh, no.
I can still hear Johnny's
tricycle rounding the corner.
I can smell the blueberry
muffins Lucy's baking.
This was the home you
were supposed
to send the fire trucks to.
So, what's it like, hmm?
Thinking your family's gonna be
saved,
only to find out it's
the wrong house.
You got the
wrong directions.
Now, don't go
blaming your husband for that.
I did hold a knife
to his throat.
Now you're gonna tell
yourself over and over again,
there should've been some way
you could save them.
I still tell myself that,
over and over again.
And it will consume you.
And that is how you should
have felt
when you took my
family away from me.
Oh, God.
Oh my...
Mom?
I already got her
where I need her to be.
Thank you.
Don't!
Dad!
Okay, okay.
Don't be a problem.
Oh, God.
Chris, where are you?
We're tied up in
the back of a...
old truck.
Alex is with me.
Can you see anything?
Any roads?
We're leaving our house.
Past the neighbor's...
barn.
Okay, fine, what's the signal?
We just clear our throats
before saying an important word.
We're tied up in
the back of a...
old truck. Alex is with me.
Okay, okay, okay.
Come on, come on.
Okay, can you see
anything? Any roads?
We're leaving our house past
the neighbor's...
barn.
Barn. Barn.
Okay,
let me know when you exit.
Oak-kay.
- Oak.
- I will.
Well, we're, we're
turning left on to a dirt...
road.
Oak Road.
Must have passed
two before this one.
Old barn, Oak Road. Old barn,
Oak road.
Old barn, Oak Road.
Okay. Okay.
All right,
I'm coming. Oh, my God.
No, please. Please don't
do this.
No!
Please don't do this.
Please. No, please.
You're a good kid. Come on.
No!
Come on. Come on, man.
Just let her go.
Please. Please stop.
Please don't do this.
Dad.
Please, stop!
Help. Help!
Daddy.
Just let my daughter go.
Come on.
Please, just let her go.
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
One more.
She's done nothing to you!
Please. No.
No, please.
It's okay.
- Dad!
- I'm so sorry.
Okay, let's have fun.
Huh?
No!
All right.
Go get the other canisters in
the car.
Catherine. Hey.
- I need help.
- Okay.
- Please don't do this.
- Son of a...!
No! Please!
Stella, please! No!
Look, Michael, if we still
wanna get outta this, we can.
What?
We can start over some place
that nobody knows us.
We've been planning this for
ten years
and now you wanna bail?
I just--
Cath, you wanted justice.
I know but, this doesn't
feel like justice.
Hey, you've already tied them
up in the bed of a truck, Cath.
Little late to walk away now.
I'm sorry, I can't stop
you from doing anything to Faye,
but I've gotten to know
them and they are good people.
Your sister was a good person.
Your nephew was a good person.
I know, but this
doesn't feel right.
Cath, I had one thought
that got me through ten years
of hell.
It was something that you
said
when I took you to visit
your sister's grave.
Remember that little white
flower we left for her, hmm?
When the
cops were taking me to jail,
Cath? Do you remember that?
Remember what you said to me?
"We won't let them
get away with this."
Yeah.
Now...
we're not gonna break
that promise, are we? Hmm?
No. No.
Okay, come on, huh?
Come on, just let her
go. Please, let her go.
No.
Dad, what's happening?
Oh.
Come on!
Stop it. Please. Please.
Please! Please, stop!
I didn't do anything
to you people!
You make sure she
shuts the hell up.
No, please.
No. No, listen, please don't.
Please, listen.
Shut up!
No!
You have to stop him. Please.
He could kill me.
I'm gonna have a baby boy.
I promised him.
I said that I would protect him.
Please. Please.
Please don't do this.
You don't have to do this.
You have to hit me.
You need to push me down, okay?
I said shut the hell up!
Bring her back! Now!
- No!
- Let her go!
No! No! No, please.
What are you doing?
Let's just calm down.
You want me to stop?
Don't. Dad!
Come here. It's all right.
You don't want me to do it?
Come here.
No.
Come here. No, no, no,
calm down. Come here.
Now listen!
Do you see this?
Don't you touch her!
That's how my family died.
No!
Watch this, Dad!
No, no, no, no, please.
Please, please.
Oh!
Oh! Oh, my God!
Mom!
- Oh, my God!
- You got my clues
I'm gonna get you outta here.
Mom...
Come on!
It's breaking!
All right.
No!
Mom!
No!
Faye!
I know I made a mistake
and I didn't save your family
but Alex and Chris are innocent.
You can't save them.
So, now you're gonna have to
watch. So, you watch!
Now watch them!
Move away from the door.
Watch them burn.
Alex!
Please, Mom!
Come on!
Oh, my God. Bree. Bree.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Are you okay?
I'm okay. I'm okay.
- You're okay?
- I'm okay.
- Oh, I love you so much.
- I love you.
I love you so much.
Where is he?
Where is Michael?
He didn't make it.
Faye, I'm so sorry
for everything that happened
at the station.
How's Ed?
Saito got Ed and Croft
to the hospital.
They'll be okay.
Okay.
Ed says he's not
pressing charges.
Put an APB out on Stella.
She got a head start.
Okay.
Come on.
Come on, let's get you
home. Here you go.
How are you guys doing?
I'll be okay.
I love you so much,
sweetheart.
I love you guys.
I love you, too.
