WOMAN: Mr.
Roth! Mr.
Roth! Are you here to arrest me? Why? What have you done? Anton, we're at school.
Do you know astronauts can't cry in space because there's no gravity? I do know that.
Anton, we're here.
Indeed we are.
people working every night and day never give yourself no time got too many bills to pay slow down WOMAN: Remember, our corporate offices are in New York if you need anything.
And, uh, I programmed the Jensens' number - into your phone.
- (laughs) We're working with Homes for Human Kind to build houses in New York.
I don't think I'm gonna need the corporate offices or the Jensens' phone number, but thank you.
I'm your mother, Amber.
I get to worry.
Now, what are the three B's? You are aware that I'm 16? I make my executives say it, - and they are a lot older than you.
- (laughs) Be careful, be smart, be curious.
WOMAN: Do you have enough money? - I'm fine, Mom.
- Here.
Take this.
I'm fine, Mom, really.
- Ian? - Yes, Mrs.
Gibson? Will you take this $20 and spend it on my daughter, please? Sure thing, Mrs.
Gibson.
What? She's my elder.
I'm respecting her elderness.
Beth Ann, isn't that your father? BOTH: What the hell is he doing here? MAN: I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about that.
I arranged to be the chaperone on this school trip, and they're counting on me.
Beth Ann, they're counting on me.
Oh, so now suddenly you care that someone is actually counting on you? Listen, this school gives us generous tuition support.
The least I can do is help out when I can.
You are embarrassing your daughter! You see that, don't you, Francis? I only get her one weekend a month.
And, Beth Ann, it's my weekend.
I only get you one weekend - And she doesn't talk to you then.
- Enough.
Enough.
You get on the bus, you don't talk to me, you don't look at me.
You, I'll see you in a few days.
you don't even need to try gotta get up, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh listen to me, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh clappa your hands BOY: Agent Hurst? Yes, Kyle? Who's this guy? This is Agent Marcus Finley.
Agent Finley, this is Kyle Devore.
Pleased to meet you, Kyle.
Where is Valens? Agent Valens is sick.
He's got the flu.
This is Agent Finley's first inner perimeter assignment.
But you'd take a bullet for me, right? I was trained to protect your life.
I wouldn't be here if I weren't.
Well, welcome to Brat Patrol.
oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh No signal.
No signal.
No signal.
(device trills) Signal.
(beeping) And no signal.
Mark it here, please.
So much for nationwide coverage, huh? Yeah, no one's getting a message out of here today.
BOYS: Hail to the Chief's son He takes his dumps on Air Force One.
Oh, yeah.
That's great.
That's great, Luke.
Thanks.
Okay, okay, now that were all here, let us go.
I want to thank you for putting me in the car today.
I've been standing outer perimeter for the last 18 months.
Don't thank me.
Valens got the flu.
You were just at the top of the pile.
So, you want to get on Amber Fitch? Everyone wants to get on Amber Fitch.
Damn, sometimes I want to get on Amber Fitch.
I'd sketch that, but I'd-I'd probably have to watch.
For perspective.
The thing is, Ian, people like us? We're invisible to Amber Fitch.
Oh, it's-it's just one at a time in there.
I don't think so, Mr.
Gibson.
(lock clicks) They're stopping for lunch soon.
Send the lead car up ahead to secure the restaurant.
Copy that.
- Mobile 7 to mobile 8.
- Go for 8.
- Move ahead to the restaurant.
- Copy.
Ian, I've been thinking.
What if I didn't come back from New York? What's to come back here for? I brought all my birthday money, $381.
Come with me.
Beth Ann, are you being serious? No, just messing with you.
Hello? Hello? What the hell? If troopers have a roadblock out here, we're supposed to be informed.
Yes, we are.
(indistinct radio transmission) We're United States Secret Service agents.
We have a protectee on that bus.
I'm gonna reach inside my jacket and get my identification now.
We know who you are.
We talked to the agents in that other SUV.
We got a downed power line up the road.
So I'm gonna have to ask you to hold up here for a little while.
Why didn't the other car radio us? You spoke to the other agents in person or over the radio? Movement! Hurst? (gasps, exclaiming) (grunts, coughs) (exhales) Worst first day ever, huh, bitch? Open the door! In 15 seconds, a truck is going to pull up.
You all are going to get off this bus and onto that truck.
Anyone who does anything different from that will end up like that man out there.
Keep coming! Come on! Up! Come on.
Let's go.
Hurry up! Let's go! Move! Get in the truck! MAN: Move! Get up front! (man shouts) Let's go, let's go! - Keep moving! - Move.
Get on the truck! Go! Hey, kid, let's go.
Time to move.
On your feet.
What'd I tell you?! Which one was it? That little fat one.
Anton Roth.
We need that one.
I need you to handle it.
Sit down! - You have to run.
- I am running.
You have to run faster! This is as fast as I run.
I have a very short stride.
And you have to stop crying.
What's your name? Anton.
You have to stop crying, Anton.
That sound will carry.
I can't stop crying because I'm afraid, and telling me why I have to stop only makes me more afraid.
MAN: And the Secret Service agents? Two still missing.
This one, Albert Hurst, been with the Secret Service 18 years.
Guy's a legend in the Service.
Runs the protective detail for the president's son.
He put this man, Agent Marcus Finley, a rookie, in his car this morning.
Hurst rerouted the bus just before departure.
Sent the lead Secret Service SUV ahead just before the attack.
Then two minutes after the attack, called in an "all okay" to Secret Service dispatch.
So, Hurst worked this from the inside.
And maybe the rookie, too.
We lock Secret Service out of this investigation.
Give them nothing.
I can brief the president.
I want you out at the school.
We're getting the parents together.
And I want you on that.
Your master of the universe sister is there, right? Her daughter was on that bus and And I don't want to hear any "you're too emotionally close to do your job clearly" crap because your niece is on that bus.
Those parents out there don't respect authority because they think they are the authority.
We need them to open up, and your sister gives us access.
We're not on speaking terms, sir.
Now you are.
That's an order.
MAN (over PA): The president will be up in ten seconds.
This is a secure communication link.
FRANCIS: Beth Ann.
FRANCIS: Beth Ann.
Beth Ann.
There you go.
You're okay.
I think they gave us some sort of tranquilizer, but the effect's wearing off.
It's okay.
You're okay.
Where's Ian? MAN: Hey, everybody here? AMBER: No.
Anton is missing.
Why would they take Anton? They didn't.
That man who was shot took him.
We were already on the truck, but I saw him take Anton.
Finley.
The new guy.
Hurst shot Finley.
He just shot him.
That is so messed up.
- All right, let's just try to stay calm.
LUKE: - Stay calm? - My mouth hurts.
LUKE: - Dude, are you at all aware of what's going on? The guy who's supposed to protect Kyle shot the other guy who's supposed to protect Kyle.
Then we got dosed.
Does anyone else's mouth hurt? Mr.
Nash is right, Luke.
Panic isn't gonna help anyone.
Okay, I think you can stop being president of the class now.
Does anyone else's mouth hurt? Oh, my God.
Mr.
Nash, what did they do to us? Please, let's try to stay calm.
F' that.
I'm out of here.
(Anton grunts) Shh (quietly): You did really good, Anton.
No signal.
We gotta find a clearing.
Read.
Out loud.
"This will all be over soon.
No one will be hurt.
If there are any special dietary needs, please speak up.
You may use any of the rooms on the first floor of this house.
The doors and windows have been sealed and alarmed, and the rooms are monitored and your phones have been taken.
You may gather in groups of no more than five people.
Some of your parents have had tracking" "Some of your parents have had tracking devices implanted under your skin or in your t teeth.
" Yeah.
"We have removed these devices.
We tried to be as careful as possible.
If you need something for the pain, please raise your hand and something will be brought to you.
As you can tell from the way you were taken, we are professionals.
If you do not respect that, we are also very comfortable with the use of force.
Are there any questions?" Is there, um, a bathroom I can use? I'm sorry.
that whoever is responsible would have to have had access to inside information - from within the Secret Service.
- Ms.
Fitch.
Ms.
Fitch.
Yeah? We're nine minutes from the school.
The pilot is saying that the airspace has since been closed to commercial traffic.
What do you want to do? Put down on the soccer field I paid for.
What are they gonna do, shoot me? Are you going to die? No.
How come it went through the vest? There's a small space on the side in between the fasteners where the bullet went.
But my rib caught it.
It's a lot of blood, but it's nothing serious.
Why did your partner shoot you? I don't know.
Well, did he ever do anything before to make you think he might one day shoot you? I just met him this morning.
How old are you, anyway? Twelve.
I skipped three grades.
Why did you just meet him this morning? This is my first day on Kyle Devore's detail.
Whose were you on before that? No one's.
This is my first day on any detail.
You're a newbie.
There's a man or men with guns tracking us through the woods and you're a newbie.
- We're going to die, aren't we? - Listen.
I'm a fully-trained Secret Service agent.
I was a DC cop for three years before that.
You are not gonna die.
I will get you home.
Okay? Okay.
(indistinct conversations) We now know from a highly-placed source that the son of the president was on the bus The son of the Chinese Ambassador Liao was on that bus.
(reporters continue indistinctly) (helicopter blades whirring) Look, whatever's between us is between us.
Today, let's just pretend like we like each other.
Or at the very least, like I'm just a parent and you're just an FBI agent.
So what do you need from me? To take me into your world.
Let's go.
Is it true that the Secret Service agents might be involved? Can't tell you that.
Some of the parents had GPS trackers implanted into their children.
The trackers aren't responding.
What does that mean? It means whoever did this knows exactly what they're doing.
Now, look, Susie.
All of these people in here are used to being first in line.
So get ready, because they're all gonna want answers and there will be no line.
I think I can handle it.
- (parents clamoring) - Okay We all understand how distressing this is.
Sir? Sir (all talking at once) I know you need answers, but (talking over each other) CASCADE: as possible.
So I am gonna need you all to We understand.
We understand how distressing this is - (voice begin to quiet) - but we are here to help you and I can assure you that Look, I know you all have questions and I know you're used to getting answers, but I have none for you.
The agents you see are passing out recollection prompts.
Fill these out.
- Ma'am? SUSIE: - They will help you remember every phone call and text, every conversation.
The car behind you at the light, the man next to you at Starbucks.
The neighbors across the street, the woman at your front door selling magazines.
Each of you will have an FBI agent assigned to you.
If you have information that you believe to be relevant, tell them now.
If not, I need you to start thinking and fill these out.
Thank you.
We all know which kid you want to find.
He lives in that big house on Pennsylvania Avenue.
And I know this recollection prompt is crap.
There's five here already.
I can move.
No, it's okay.
Well, sure.
Fine, th-that's okay.
JIN: We are going to die because of him.
He's the reason they took us, right? And when his dad sends the troops to rescue him, which one of us do you think they're going to make sure gets out of here alive? Perfect.
They can put "collateral damage" under my yearbook picture.
You think this is because of me, Liao? I wasn't even supposed to be here.
My dad was going to some summit in Ireland.
I was going with him.
But it got cancelled two days ago.
You think you could put this all together in two days? This house? Those cameras? What happened on that bus? In two freakin' days? I don't know what this is about, but it isn't about me.
(speaking low, indistinctly) You can go sit over there if you want.
Sorry.
You don't have to be.
I was just thinking about Amber's mom.
- That's just weird.
- Come on, seriously.
She's, what, like the CEO of some billion-dollar multinational corporation, - right? - Yeah.
And her friend sitting next to her, her dad runs some big company, too.
His mom works for the UN.
His dad's the captain of some aircraft carrier.
Her parents are actual royalty.
Kyle isn't the only one with a powerful parent with a kid worth taking.
Yeah.
SUSIE: And your company any enemies there that might benefit from this? We are a multinational IT corporation.
We sell to governments, armed forces and businesses here and abroad.
I have 350,000 employees.
So to answer your question, yes, I have enemies.
Most everyone else here does, too.
Are you just gonna ask me about my business, Susie? That's how I do my job.
Boy, you are tougher than I remember.
It's been a long time.
Well, you're tougher than me.
I'm not sure how much longer I can keep this up.
Not today.
Maybe one of us should just say it, hmm? One of us should just say the words.
Look, I know you wrote that book, Seven Paths to Success, and I know that clarity is one of them.
So for clarity I am here to find your daughter, Amber.
To find all of their kids.
That is why I'm here, and I think I think I should question one of the other parents, okay? (phone ringing) I'll get you a different agent.
Excuse me.
Yeah.
OLSEN: Hey, we might've caught a break with the parent chaperones.
Francis Gibson, he's ex-CIA.
An analyst.
A friend over there checked his file for me and said that Gibson applied to go over to Ops but never made it through.
Couldn't handle the physical aspect, which I'm guessing means he was soft, but he's smart.
He knows the drill.
He'll try to make contact, so see what you can find out about him.
Got it.
Francis Gibson.
You know him? Yeah.
He's a dad at school.
Is he our hero? (quiet laugh) No way.
You can be brave.
You you can be brave.
You can be you can be brave.
You can be You can be brave.
Mr.
Nash? As long as today might be our last, I got to tell you.
That time you did Ms.
Kaley in the locker room? I kind of saw you.
I don't know what you're talking about, Luke.
I'm talking about the time you tapped - the hot chem teacher.
- Luke? What you saw Adult emotions are complicated.
Beth Ann, listen.
- I have a plan.
- A plan? What kind of plan? A plan to get you out of here.
I've been tracking them.
One of them comes through about every 90 minutes.
He just walks through and leaves.
Beth Ann, they've already indentified me as weak.
So they're not gonna be - expecting it.
- Expecting what? For me to take his gun, and hold the others off for a while.
You need to get outside.
The government will have real-time satellites tracking us.
Group of kids on the lawn will trigger a red flag.
They will see you, and they'll send help.
That's crazy.
They'll kill you.
Yes, but not you.
For some reason, they want you kids alive.
For now.
I don't want you doing this for me.
I remember the last time you were happy.
Your last birthday.
Yeah, I was.
After that, all you did was make Mom cry.
Someday I hope you understand what happened to our family.
But now, just get everyone on the lawn.
Still no reception.
We got to get higher.
He's here.
We have to keep running.
Out the back door, into the woods.
(grunting) No.
No, we can't run.
Even if we got a call out, they'd never get here in time.
I can run, I promise.
I'll run faster.
- I will.
- I know you would.
But that man out there is the only connection to the people who took your friends.
They're not my friends, really.
If we get away from him, that connection is gone.
If rescue comes and it scares him away, that connection is gone.
But you promised to get me home.
I will get you home, Anton.
But I need to get the others home, too.
So we need to take him.
You're one of those people who can will himself to do things.
I go to school with a lot of kids like that.
I'm not one of those kids.
Today you are.
(yelling) Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! Aah! He broke the rules! (screaming) Beth Ann! (yells, panting) Bring me my book.
(grunts) You want a painkiller? No, I want an update.
REPORTER: Along with the secret service SUV that was part of the protection detail.
Why isn't your brother back by now? Hey! I got a deal for you! Give me the kid and I'll let you live! Or I come in there, kill you, and take the kid anyway! Don't let him take me.
I won't.
He's going to come in here.
I know.
I'll stop him.
You don't even have a gun! I don't even need one, Anton.
How about this instead?! I kill you, I keep this kid! Then I go and get the rest of his classmates back! All the parents are accounted for except for Morgan Roth.
His kid is Anton.
His wife hasn't heard from him.
She's called, but he won't pick up.
He works at Breakey Communications.
It's a satellite TV company.
You would think with his kid missing, he'd check in, right? Okay, Morgan Roth swiped his keycard in at one of his company's remote relay locations an hour ago.
Never swiped out.
I'm on my way there.
I need to get somewhere in a hurry, and I could use your help.
Do you have a lead? Right, you can't tell me.
Um, my helicopter is in the soccer field.
Just tell the pilot where you want to go.
- Thank you.
- Susie? Do you remember the last thing you said to me? I said "Go to hell.
" No, you said something after that.
It's smart.
Putting his finger in ice like that, smart.
It's what you put on all of my assessments, right? That I'm smart.
Ms.
Kaley? - Amber - Yes.
I heard what it is, Mr.
Nash.
Adult emotions are complicated.
Turns out teenage ones are, too.
How are you doing, Beth Ann? She won't talk.
REPORTER: How can anyone hope to get away with this? What agencies will be used? What resources? What hardware? What technologies? Bob? The answer, Richard, is everyone and everything.
Programs and technology will be brought into play that up until this moment had not been authorized for use on US soil.
I can guarantee you that somewhere Boss? They do have something else in the air.
It's seriously encrypted.
Some type of surveillance platform.
I can't hack into it.
If it's looking for us, there's no way I can stop it.
It's gonna lead the FBI right to our door.
Did we miss a GPS locator in any of those children? We were thorough, but if it was small enough or a low emissions composite, it's possible.
(indistinct radio transmission) I make 23 minutes before they have a lock on us.
Damn.
That's right.
$3 trillion spent on high-tech warfare over the last decade.
And now it's all aimed at you.
Something in your book for that? What's your little girl gonna think about her daddy when he's sitting on death row? Maybe we should think about getting out of here.
Why would we think about doing that? AMBER: Just tell her how her father is.
Can you do that? Can you at least do that? Just come out here and tell Mr.
Gibson's daughter if her father's gonna be okay.
Can you just be a human being? So which one are you, Mr.
Gibson? The one I saw out there desperate for his daughter's love? Or the one in here with that computation book? That's no concern of yours.
What should concern you is that my daughter is not in here, and you are.
(indistinct radio transmission) Surveillance drone is close to a lock on that location, sir.
I want hostage rescue in the helicopters.
I want the rotors turning.
As soon as we get that location, they are good to go.
22 minutes.
There! He's over there.
MAN (voice altered): Enter the code I've sent you into the system.
And what happens when I do? You will see your son again.
They think that they have control, Mr.
Roth.
But they don't, not anymore.
Push the button.
Do it now.
Push the button.
Mr.
Roth! Mr.
Roth! Here to arrest me? Why? What have you done? I don't know.
(gentle music plays, low conversations) (explosion, people exclaiming) Did we get a location? No.
REPORTER: The head of the NSA, the head of the National Council of (door creaks) (muffled panting) (muffled panting) (muffled panting) (muffled panting over phone) Go, Anton! Go now! (grunting) (gasping) (both grunting) Dude, what is your problem?! Why couldn't you just lay on that road?! (Marcus yelling) I'm from the Ballard School.
Anton Roth.
I-I've been kidnapped.
(gunshot) Did you get him? Yeah, I got him.
- 911? - Mm-hmm.
You tell them who you are? Mm-hmm.
I thought you weren't the type of person who willed himself to do things.
Today, I guess I am.
Hello? You tell the FBI that we're gonna leave this line open so they can just go ahead and track us to here.
(grunts) I took it this walkie off that guy downstairs.
I'm gonna have a little chat with whoever's on the other end.
"Whomever" is on the other end.
This is Secret Service Agent Marcus Finley speaking to whomever's listening.
The man that you sent after us is dead.
You want to come for the body, just follow this signal.
Just before I killed him, he asked what my problem was.
My problem is you took kids.
Children.
What type of person does that? A bug.
A bug that needs to be stepped on and stopped.
You're my problem, and now I'm yours.
He wasn't alive to hear the answer to that question, but I thought you'd want to know.
If he killed my brother, I'm gonna make him hurt before I kill him.
Yes I am a bug.
I've always known that about myself.
But today the bug is king.
Who was on the phone, Mr.
Roth? Did they force you to do this? You just took out an unhackable classified drone.
Whoever is behind this has our playbook and they are using it against us.
I need to know who that is.
You kept these kids from being found.
Who was on the phone? (helicopter blades whirring) They're coming.
They're coming.
Finley, they're here.
You did it.
You hear me? You did it.
Finley? Finley? Hey No matter what happens next, Anton, I don't want you to worry about me.
Why? What's gonna happen to you? Anton, I'm a Secret Service agent.
And you lost the president's kid.
REPORTER (on TV): Naval Strike Group Three and its carrier the USS John Stennis has been ordered to steam toward the East Coast of the United States.
And we are now hearing that very soon (overlapping news reports) couldn't be much more from the heart forever trusting who we are All aircraft carrier battle groups have been ordered onto high alert.
FAA has just landed all commercial and nonessential MAN: Everyone up the stairs! Move it! never opened myself this way For the time being, there will be nothing in the sky that is not law enforcement.
Financial markets have taken a sharp downturn (overlapping news reports) all these words I don't just say and nothing else matters (indistinct chattering, laughing) There he is.
I wasn't sure you were gonna make it.
We got a problem back there, Francis.
We got a problem with Operation Lennox.
What? That wasn't supposed to go yet.
They're dead, Francis.
- Who's dead? - All of 'em.
Men, women, children, most of our guys.
It just got out of hand.
I'm-I'm-I'm coming back in.
You can't come in.
I tried to keep you clean, Francis.
I did everything I could, but you gave the "go order.
" You signed off on Operation Lennox.
You know I didn't.
I was against it.
I never put my name on that.
How far do we go back, Francis? I'm Beth Ann's godfather.
I'd be here watching her unwrap presents if I didn't have to clean up this mess.
Clean it up by putting that blood on me? I need to fight this.
Look at Beth Ann, Francis.
I have a sniper on your daughter.
You're my best friend.

Then why are you here? I saw something today.
One of the parents did something he never would have done because he just wanted to see his kid.
I had to put a loving father in handcuffs because he just wanted to see his kid.
And you just want to see your kid.
I know I said I never wanted to, but today now I need to.
