Come on, everybody!
The museum is closing!
Buses hit the road
in five minutes!
You too, Chloe.
Yeah, be right there.
(doors opening)
(dramatic music)
(doors closing)
(light dramatic music)
(door rattling)
Hello?
Mr. Halligan?
(light tapping on door)
Hello, I'm still in here.
(doors rattling nearby)
Hello?
Is anybody in here?
I'm locked in!

Do you realize this will
be the first Christmas
I haven't been alone
since mom and dad died?
I just wish your job didn't
make you move so far away.
[Tracy] In all fairness,
I did ask the baby to come
before the holiday rush.
What do you know, the
little guy's stubborn.
[Aubrey] Takes
after his momma.
Takes after his
aunt is more like it.
Now what time are
you getting here?
You mean if I get there.
[Tracy] What are
you talking about?
Haven't you seen
the weather reports?
They're calling it
the biggest blizzard
in the past five years.
Oh, please!
Everything's the biggest
everything these days.
Don't you know the news makes
their money on gloom and doom?
Well, I just got
to the airport.
Travel safe, okay?
I'm sure he'll wait
until you get here.
He better, or else
he can forget about
any Christmas presents
from Auntie Aubrey.
[Tracy] Love you, sis.
Love you.
(man speaking
indistinctly over PA)
[Meteorologist] Santa
will be delivering presents
to all those good boys
and girls tonight.
(sighing) She'll make it.
[Meteorologist] It's best
that you just stay at home.
(engines humming)
(engines humming)
Will you help me
with this please?
- Mm-hmm.
- Thank you.
Welcome.
Welcome aboard.
(engine humming)
(people chatting softly)
Hi.
Excuse me, would you mind?
Oh, no, of course not.
Here.
(both grunting)
Move.
Move.
(sighing) Thank you.
Thank you very much.
I know I packed too much.
My husband tells
me so all the time.
I don't quite know
what to pack for.
I guess this time I
should've packed for snow.
(Aubrey chuckles)
Did you know that they
said this is supposed
to be the biggest
blizzard in five years?
Uh-huh.
(gentle music)
I was afraid that they
would cancel the flights.
Then what?
Mm, that's what I get for
trying to fly on Christmas Eve.
[Captain] Flight attendants,
please prepare for takeoff.
At least I have someone
to talk to the whole flight.
I mean, there is
nothing more dreadful
than being stuck in
one of these things
with no one to talk to.
Mm-hmm.
My, I can talk all
the way to Chicago.
(Audrey sighs softly)
(engine humming)
(serene music)
(engine humming)
I've never been
crazy about flying
ever since I was a little girl.
I don't know if it's the height
or the fact that
I'm putting my life
in the hands of some
pilot I didn't know.
Aubrey, it's
perfectly reasonable
to find flying uncomfortable.
I was suppose to be with
my parents that Christmas.
All I had to do
was fly to Denver,
a two-and-a-half hour flight,
but I couldn't even do that.
It was an accident.
Nothing about you being there
would've made any difference.
You don't know that.
There's no
guarantee the outcome
would've been any different.
"Nothing would've changed.
"There's no
guarantee the outcome"
"would've been different."
Get a hold of yourself.
(engine roaring)
(alert chiming)
[Captain] This is
your captain speaking.
We're approaching a pretty
big storm system up ahead,
so we're going to ask everyone
to return to their seats.
Perfect.
Um, ma'am, can
I have you get...
Sit down, I know.
I'm going. I'm going.
(plane rattling)
(alert chiming)
[Captain] Ladies
and gentlemen,
please return all arm
rests and tray tables
to their upright position.
(Aubrey groaning)
[Aubrey] Come on.
(soft thumping)
Don't like kids?
Don't like flying.
(soft thumping)
(Aubrey gasping)
One day you'll be a mother.
You'll understand.
(engine roaring)
(dramatic music)
(plane rattles)
(woman gasping)
[Woman] What was that?
Sir, can you get in
your seat belt please?
(engine roaring)
(flight attendant grunting)
Thank you.
- Ladies and gentlemen,
due to severe weather
conditions across the Midwest,
we will be diverting and
taking an early landing.
We apologize for
any inconvenience,
and we'll do our
utmost to ensure
you reach your final destination
as soon as it is safe.
You hear that.
It'll all be over soon and
everything will be okay.
You'll see.
(suspenseful music)
(plane rattling)
(dramatic music playing on TV)
The winter storm warning
we've been tracking across
the Midwestern United States
is now in full swing,
and unfortunately...
Excuse me.
(dramatic music)
[Meteorologist]
Continue to worsen.
That Christmas travel
is taking a huge hit.
Whoops, excuse me.
[Meteorologist]
Flight cancellations
from Wisconsin to Nebraska.
We're getting word that
still accumulations
are now up to six to
eight inches per hour.
(Aubrey gasping)
- Watch it!
- I'm so sorry.
I'm...
(Aubrey sighing)
Ba humbug to you too.
(people chattering)
[Passenger] We've
been waiting forever.
How much longer?
(light dramatic music)
(people chattering)
[Leigh] There's
nothing you can do?
[Agent] The whole
Midwest has been grounded.
Please, it's very important
we get out of here tonight.
It's Christmas Eve.
A lot of people would love
to be getting out
of here tonight,
but the airline doesn't
control the weather.
Sir, I'd appreciate
it if you'd stop that.
I apologize for my husband.
Will you at least get us a room?
I'm sorry, we don't
have enough hotel rooms
for everybody, and the
crews take priority.
I'm sorry.
We'd like to speak
to your supervisor.
This is a regional airport.
I'm the only one working
this late at night,
and your flight was the
last one we're expecting.
(phone thumping)
- Hey!
I'm sorry.
Hey, you broke my phone!
Hey, I'm talking you!
Ma'am! Ma'am!
Something wrong?
Yeah, that guy broke my phone.
You're saying
he took the phone
out of your hand and smashed it?
No, he bumped into
me, and it fell.
So it was an accident.
Excuse me.
[Guard] You dropped it.
Because he bumped into me.
Ma'am, it's Christmas Eve.
How about a little
personal responsibility, hmm?
Just forget it.
Excellent idea.
Jerk.
(people chattering)
When it rains, it pours, huh?
Sure hope I can help you.
My sister's due
like any minute,
and I need to get to Chicago
as soon as possible.
I'm sure you've heard
everything's been grounded
because of the storm.
I know.
I guess, I'm hoping there's
something you can do.
(tapping on keyboard)
I have a 6:30 a.m. to
O'Hare with one seat left?
Yes, please.
Just let me make
a quick adjustment.
(machine clicking)
Your new boarding pass.
Your flight boards
at six from Gate A3.
And did I hear there
are no more rooms?
I wish I could help, really.
But,
I can offer you a
free meal voucher.
What I really
need is a new phone.
There's a store
in the terminal.
I'm sure they'll
be able to help.
Great. Thanks.
By the way, congratulations.
You'll be a great aunt.
Merry Christmas.
(air whooshes)
(wind howling)
(upbeat festive
background music playing)
You stuck here?
What's that?
I said "stuck here?"
Yeah.
Which one of these is
supposed to be good?
None of them.
But they're good
enough until you get to
wherever you're going
or, you know, whenever.
(Aubrey sighing)
This one.
Add a protection plan?
(scoffs) Not on your life.
(register beeping)
That'll be $75.50.
For that?
We're the only store open.
(Aubrey sighing)
And the gum.
(keypad beeping)
(phone line trilling)
(telephone ringing)
Hello.
It's me.
Aubrey, who's phone is this?
Long story.
At least tell
me you've landed.
(laughs) Why,
are you in labor?
Wait? Are you in labor?
I'm having contractions!
(grunting) How long since?
Uh, five. Five
and a half, I think.
You were suppose
today keep track!
Well, I'm also packing!
Well, don't stop!
(gentle music)
Five-and-a-half-ish.
Here's the thing they've
redirected the flight
because of the storm.
For how long?
[Aubrey] Until morning,
assuming things clear up.
Oh, hon, don't forget
to grab the charger.
Look, I'll get there
as soon as I can, okay?
I'm already booked on
the first flight out
tomorrow morning.
Do the best you can.
Might as well head
straight to the hospital
when you do get here.
I can't find it.
You were the last
one to have it.
(Ben sighing)
(gentle music)
Hey, look on the bright side.
You're getting one heck
of a Christmas present.
And a big one at that.
(Aubrey chuckles)
Just call me when you get
to the hospital, okay?
What was that?
Tracy?
(Tracy's voice breaking up)
Tracy, can you hear me?
Hello, are you still there?
Found it!
Where was it?
In your purse.
(Aubrey sighing)
Crappy phone.
Let me guess. No service.
Nope.
Yeah, me neither.
Luckily, no one's expecting to
hear from me until tomorrow,
but, you know, hopefully we
don't get stuck here longer.
Oh, please don't jinx it.
(man chuckling)
Why, you got someone
important waiting for you, or?
Yes.
My nephew.
Oh, yeah? How old?
T-minus six
hours and counting.
Wait? No way, really?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, that's really important.
Mm-hmm.
You?
No, no, I'm...
Nothing's waiting for me,
except for a day-old
mountain of snow
and my board to ride it with.
Ah. (Chuckling)
Hey, she smiles.
Occasionally.
I'm Finn.
- Aubrey.
- Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too.
Do you mind if I...
No, go ahead.
So, this must be The
Breakfast Club, huh?
(Finn chuckling)
Yeah.
We got a grandma
clutching her pearls
and her mystery
novel over there.
And...
Oh, yeah, just your
run-of-the-mill happy
couple, I'm sure.
See how long they last.
(Aubrey chuckling)
And...
Lastly, Old Man Withers.
You know, he totally would've
gotten away with it too
if it weren't for
those meddling kids.
Oh, yeah.
It doesn't look
like anyone's headed
to the Haunted
Amusement Park tonight.
(both chuckling)
Well, it's my fault.
I should've booked before we
got off like everyone else,
but, you know.
No, silly me, I put my
faith in customer service.
Ooh, next you'll be telling me
you still believe
in Santa Claus.
Well, on the bright side,
at least we'll be
the first to get on.
Yeah.
I wouldn't count on that, son.
What do you mean?
It's as regional airport.
It's gonna take them
hour to dig this out.
Well, Aubrey here
has got to get to...
Chicago.
Yeah, to Chicago for
the birth of her nephew.
You don't say.
Congratulations.
Thanks.
Question?
Downstairs they
mentioned a restaurant?
Yes, ma'am, down
the hall aways.
Yeah, they're gonna
stay open late
in case you get hungry.
Good to know.
Good luck on your travels.
(gentle music)
(cart rattling)
(ominous music)
(dispenser whirring)
What are you thinking?
He's a snowboarder.
Have a seat. I'll
grab you a menu.
They give me this downstairs.
That should get you pretty
much any of our entrees.
Hmm.
What do you recommend?
You can never go wrong
with our Christmas burger.
Hmm, how can I say no to that?
And do drink?
Just water, thanks.
Sorry, I couldn't
help eavesdropping.
I heard you have a
nephew on the way?
I do.
That's actually why I'm flying.
My sister moved to
Chicago for work,
and, well, I
promised to be there.
I remember the day my
granddaughter was firstborn.
(sighs) The proudest
day of my life.
Where are my manners?
I'm Vivian.
Aubrey.
(both chuckling)
Mind if I join you?
I'm a bit starved for company.
No, not at all.
So, they couldn't find
you a room either?
(Vivian chuckling)
Apparently, age before
beauty no longer applies.
(both chuckling)
But I don't mind.
It gives me plenty of time to
catch up on my cozy mysteries.
Ooh.
Jon, please listen to me!
We're gonna make it!
(Vivian sighing softly)
Don't worry.
He's about as warm as that
snowstorm out there, isn't he?
(Aubrey scoffing)
Tell me about it.
He's the reason I have this
incredible new phone here.
Oh, I thought that
was something retro.
I wish.
(both chuckling)
Burger will be just
another couple minutes.
Thanks.
(gentle music)
Any luck?
No, my sister's supposed
to be calling me any minute
to let me know she got
to the hospital okay,
but I don't have a signal,
and I can't figure out
what any of this means.
I'd try the parking
garage if I were you.
I usually get a
signal out there.
Great.
(gentle music)
Oh, would you mind?
Oh, not at all.
Oh, and don't
forget your jacket.
Bound to be very
chilly out there.
- Thanks.
- Come on.
I'll show you a way, so you
don't have to deal with TSA.
[Aubrey] Thank you.
(wind howling faintly)
(phone beeping)
(phone beeping)
(keypad beeping)
(phone line trilling)
[Tracy] Hey, this is Tracy.
Please leave a message.
(voicemail beeps)
Hey, Tracy.
Having a heck of a
time getting a signal.
Call me when you get this, okay?
Bye.
(car door rattling)
(dramatic music)
Hello?
(dramatic music)
Hello?
Someone there?
(tense music)
(wind whooshing)
(light background music playing)
Thank you.
(Vivian gasping)
Any luck?
What was that?
Did you get a signal?
Oh, yeah, but it
went to voicemail.
Well, she's probably still
checking in and all that.
I mean, there's so
much paper work to do.
Here, I kept it warm for you.
Thanks.
Jingle bells
Jingle all the way
This is really good.
I suggest saving some room
for our Palisade Peach Cobbler.
Ooh, heck, I might just
skip right to that part.
A la mode?
Uh, au naturel.
You got it.
Thank you so much.
Hmm.
You know what just
occurred to me?
It's after midnight.
You know what that means?
Nobody really?
It's Christmas!
(all chuckling)
Merry Christmas.
Hey, Merry Christmas.
At least somebody's
got the spirit.
(gruff laughter)
"Good tidings to you
and to all of your kin."
Actually speaking of, any
word from your sister?
Had to go out to the
garage just to get a signal.
Oh, ouch.
What was that like out there?
Freezing.
Yeah, you really
shouldn't have to do that
just to make a phone call.
Hey, excuse me?
Hi, I'm sorry, I
didn't catch your name?
Claire.
Claire. Hey, Claire, do you...
Don't you guys have
like a phone in here
or something that she could use?
There's a landline,
but it's down.
Oh, come on.
Really?
There's not an airport that
doesn't have a landline.
That's got to be silly.
(telephone beeping)
Yeah. (Sighing)
She'll call back.
Like I said,
I'm sure she's
still checking in.
I went to get an X-ray
a couple of months back.
I thought it was like
applying for a mortgage.
(both chuckling)
Oh, that does look good.
You know what,
I'll take one too.
How about you?
I'm good, thanks.
Whoa.
Okay.
Who'd have thunk I'd
have to get stuck
in an airport in the
middle of nowhere
to have the best peach cobbler
that I have ever had
in my entire life.
How long have you
two been together?
Who? Us?
- No, no, no.
- We're not together.
No.
- No.
(cellphone ringing)
Is that her?
(Aubrey gasping)
Excuse me.
Oh, what fun it is
to ride in a one
(elevator bell chimes)
Hey.
Tracy, is everything okay?
Tracy, can you...
Hold on, I'm trying to
find a better signal.
Can you hear me now?
Tracy?
(cellphone beeping)
(Aubrey sighing)
You've got to be kidding me.
(metal clanking)
(ominous music)
(door rattling)
(metal clanking)
Hello?
(loud rattling)
Is anyone in there?
(dramatic music)
(Aubrey sighing)
(dramatic music)
Someone there?
(metal rattling)
(tense dramatic music)
(objects rattling)
Hello?
(suspenseful music)
(heavy pounding in van)
Can you make a sound
if you can hear me?
(heavy pounding in van)
(dramatic music)
Are you in trouble?
(objects rattling)
(suspenseful music)
(Aubrey gasping)
(Aubrey gasping)
(keypad beeping)
(phone beeping)
(keypad beeping)
(phone beeping)
Oh, no, no, no, no.
(suspenseful music)
I'm gonna try and get some
help or something, okay?
(heavy pounding)
(tense dramatic music)
(tense dramatic music)
(cart rattling)
Hey.
I remember you.
Did you find the restaurant?
I did, thanks.
Look, is there a security
guard I could talk to?
Yes, ma'am, there's
one right down here...
I know, but, anyone else?
Well, he's the
only one on duty.
Why? Is there a problem?
(tense music)
Ma'am?
Ma'am?
- Is there
one of those in the airport?
What? Fast Burger?
I wish.
Why, you a fan?
(Aubrey laughs)
Who isn't?
(dramatic music)
Look if you need me
to talk to someone...
No, it's cool.
Don't worry about it.
You sure?
Yeah, all good.
You can let go now.
Why don't we go
back to the gate.
Why don't you let go of me?
I'm just trying to help.
(dramatic music)
Tonight's record-breaking
winter storm
continues to rage all across
the Midwestern United States.
The biggest concern at
the moment is visibility,
which is near zero.
In many places that's
due to the wind gusts
that are up to now 50
and 60 miles per hour
creating white out conditions.
Residents are urged to put their
holiday travel plans
on hold as thousands
of flights are being
canceled or redirected.
With O'Hare, Minneapolis
St. Paul, Detroit,
and Midway completely shut down.
Interstates 90, 80, and 70
have also been closed
in both directions.
We're expecting these
extreme conditions
to last through the night,
so please don't go outside.
Don't go to the airport.
You're gonna get
stuck, and stay safe.
(dramatic music)
(tense dramatic music)
(door creaking)
(tense suspenseful music)
(Aubrey grunting)
Come on, come on.
(tense suspenseful music)
(dramatic music)
My God.
(Chloe grunting)
No, no, no, no, I'm
not gonna hurt you.
I'm not gonna hurt
you, I promise.
Okay, I'm not gonna hurt you.
I'm not gonna hurt you.
(Chloe screams muffled)
I promise.
I'm not gonna hurt you, okay.
Just gonna take the gag
out of your mouth, okay?
(dramatic music)
(Aubrey gasping)
(dramatic music)
(keypad beeping)
(cellphone beeping)
We're gonna figure
this out, okay?
(dramatic music)
What's your name?
Chloe.
Hi, Chloe.
I'm Aubrey.
It's so cold.
I know.
I know.
Uh...
Here.
Um,
how long have you been out here?
Since it got dark.
Do you know who did this?
Wore a mask.
A man?
Woman?
Man, I think.
I couldn't tell.
(footsteps approaching)
Okay, shh, shh, shh, shh.
Shh, shh.
(dramatic music)
(tense ominous music)
(door opening)
(door closing)
(tense suspenseful music)
[Mysterious Man] I know.
(upbeat ringtone plays on phone)
(mysterious man sighing)

(mysterious man sighs)

(door closing)
(tense music)
(dramatic music)
(Aubrey sighing)
Okay.
(Aubrey gasping)
I can't break this.
Please don't leave me.
I know.
I'm gonna find help, okay?
No, please.
He can't know
that I found you.
I'm gonna find a way
to call for help,
and I'm gonna come
back for you, okay?
Okay.
Here.
Write down everything you can,
parent's phone number.
Anything I can give
the cops, okay?
Okay?
Okay. Okay.
Um...
I'm sorry, I have to do this.
I'm sorry.
I'm going to help,
and I'm going to come
back for you, okay?
I promise.
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music)
(suspenseful music)
(Aubrey panting)
(suspenseful music)
(Aubrey gasping)
Oh, great.
(suspenseful music)
(sighs) Does anyone work here?
Great.
(Aubrey gasping)
(wind whistling)
(cellphone beeping)
(keypad beeping)
Look, I just wanted to
apologize about your phone.
(cellphone beeping)
I know my husband isn't
the easiest person to
get along with, but at
least let me makeup for it?
It's okay.
No, it isn't.
He was rude and impatient,
and he can get into these moods.
[Aubrey] Do you have a phone?
- Do I have?
- A cellphone?
I don't have a signal.
Look, I'm trying to
make things right here.
Yeah, I appreciate it, but
it's really not a good time.
I'm sorry, I just
thought since we were...
I need to find a
phone that works!
Look, there's something I need
to tell you about my husband.
Jon...
(footsteps approaching)
(ominous music)
Sorry.
(tense music)
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music)
Cookie?
(tense dramatic music)
Hi, would you like a cookie?
[Leigh] No, thanks.
- Hey.
- How about you?
You okay?
[Claire] Do you want a cookie?
Is she okay?
Your sister?
I couldn't get a signal again.
Yeah, the snow will do that.
Just got to be patient.
Excuse me.
(coughs) I said excuse me.
Does anyone happen to
have any phone service?
A cell or internet?
Okay, how about
an emergency call?
Can anyone make one of those?
Aubrey, is everything okay?
It's just, um...
I was just outside,
and it's not getting any better.
And I think, it's
a good idea for us
to be able to reach
the outside world.
You know, just in case.
Hey, Aubrey, I know this
exactly hasn't been a picnic,
but I just think we're
probably better off
being warm in here
than out there.
(light dramatic music)
At least we still have
heat and electricity.
There's no chance of
losing power is there?
I've only been here
a couple of months.
No, it happened last winter.
Airport was down for six hours.
We couldn't get the
runway lights back up.
But you have to have a
back up generator, right?
Yeah, generators run on fuel.
Fuel runs out.
And just checking, but,
nobody has a car, right?
Claire?
Do you have a vehicle
in the garage?
(sighing) My boyfriend
dropped me off.
He won't pick me up
until the storm's over.
Sounds like a real prince.
Jed?
I took the train.
So you don't have
like a work van?
No, ma'am, I do not.
Well, I for one
appreciate, Miss Aubrey,
for trying to look out
for us lonely souls
who are stuck here on this
blustery Christmas Eve.
But I think it's best we
hunker down for the night
and hope that things clear,
so we can travel
safely in the morning.
(light dramatic music)
Aubrey.
Hey, what's going on?
Don't tell me it's your sister?
I need to show you something?
Come on.
Like right now?
Okay.
(wind howling)
(elevator bell chimes)
(both sighing)
I found it when I came
out to use the phone.
Okay.
But you have to
promise not to tell
anyone what I'm
about to show you.
Why not?
Because I don't
know who to trust.
Okay.
Promise me?
Yeah, no...
I promise, promise.
(light dramatic music)
It's not here.
What?
The van it was right there.
I don't see a van, Aubrey.
There was a girl inside.
A girl?
She was chained like
she had been kidnapped.
Wait, are you serious?
Yes.
Okay, well... (sighing)
Where did she go?
Are you sure this
is the right level?
Yes, I'm sure!
Look. (Sighing)
Look, it's cold, right,
and sometimes when you
add in ice and snow,
there's garages like these,
it makes a lot of noise.
- No, no, I talk to her.
Aubrey. (Sighing)
They must've moved the van.
- Who?
- Whoever took her.
- Aubrey, nobody...
- I'm not crazy!
I'm not saying
that you're crazy.
I'm just saying
that you're just...
Look, I got an idea.
Why don't we go back inside
and find a security guard,
and you tell him just
what you told me, huh?
I told her I'd come back.
I promised her I'd come back!
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
I'm gonna help you, okay.
(dramatic music)
All right, come on,
let's go back inside.
(wind blowing)
(Finn sighing)
Okay, we just
gotta find a guard.
I don't see anyone.
It's an airport how
could there not be a guard?
It's the middle of the night.
Well, I'm here.
You're here and it's...
Ah, bingo.
- No, no, no.
- Hey, excuse me, Officer.
Wait, wait.
How did you two get over here.
You're supposed to be on
the other side of security.
Oh, there was a door,
that I found on my own,
but more importantly...
Evading a TSA checkpoint
is a federal offense.
Officer Armstrong, can
I have a word please?
I should arrest you both.
Come on.
Come on, let's go.
(Finn whispering)
I'm just not exactly for sure.
She that she was going out
to the garage, all right,
and apparently there
was a van, and...
[Armstrong] I got it.
That's exactly what
she said, you're sure?
Do you think that
you could maybe just
maybe encourage her?
[Armstrong] Yeah, you bet.
Yeah, sure.
(dramatic music)
Well?
Well, he's not a fan of yours,
but he's gonna help us.
Willingly?
(Finn scoffs)
Yeah, so maybe I
offered him 50 bucks
and told him you'd behave.
Cute.
[Finn] Yeah.
Come on.
(dramatic music)
Like I said,
no van.
Back it up before this.
(Armstrong groaning)
Please.
(Armstrong sighing)
Fine.
(computer whirring)
(computer whirring)
There, that's
everything since 1700.
(dramatic music)
That's impossible.
I told you.
It's a wild goose chase.
The van was there.
Of course, it was.
Aubrey.
Do have any actual evidence
that this van was there?
Like?
Did you take a picture of it?
What about the girl's name?
Chloe.
Chloe what?
Okay, I had her
write everything down,
anything I could give the cops.
(dramatic music)
(keypad clicks softly)
There's nothing here.
What do you mean?
Of course, there is?
Do you see anything?
(Aubrey gasping)
(dramatic music)
Well, that's...
It was right there
I'm telling you.
Did you do something
to my phone?
Why would I do
anything to your phone?
You tell me.
Come on, can't
you just report it?
Report what?
What, a van I have
no evidence of
or a kidnapping victim
I can't identify?
No. No we're done here.
No. No, we're not.
Yes, we are!
I have a post to get back to,
and you two need to
get back to your gate!
(dramatic music)
Unless you wanna
find out where we put
the troublemakers
in this airport.
(dramatic music)
Do you?
Aubrey?
(dramatic music)
I know what you're thinking.
(sighs) Aubrey.
You don't believe me.
No, I wouldn't say that.
What would you say?
I mean, I don't know.
I just, maybe someone was
pulling a prank, or...
In the middle of a storm?
I'm just trying
to be positive here.
I know.
Because the alternative...
It seems pretty unbelievable.
I mean your words not mine.
You and my therapist could
write a book about this.
Well, lots of people
have therapists.
That doesn't mean anything.
I'm sorry.
We both have enough
to worry about.
I don't mean to drag
you into this crap.
No, no, no, no.
But I can be a good listener,
and it's not like I
have anywhere else
to be for the next
four hours or so.
(Aubrey chuckles)
(gentle music)
Five years ago,
my parents went on a
holiday ski trip to Denver.
I was suppose to
meet them there.
But I didn't wanna fly,
so I made an excuse not to go.
My parents died
in a car accident
two days before Christmas.
Aubrey, I'm so sorry.
My therapists says that,
"Grief isn't one year."
That, "Letting go
wasn't forgetting."
But I have this phobia
of getting attached or
too close to someone,
and now with this
little girl, I...
You're afraid
you'll get hurt again?
Yeah.
See, told you.
I don't you to have to
worry about my crap too.
No, no, no, no.
That's not crap.
I mean, you want crap.
My dad abandoned the family like
pretty much right
after I was born.
And my mom's
overbearing basket case.
My brother is a black sheep
who can't stop
getting into trouble.
So, believe me I know
plenty of damaged people
to know that you're
not one of them.
(gentle music)
So, if you say you
saw a girl in a van,
then I believe you
saw a girl in a van.
(gentle music)
So, I say we go back to the gate
and just ask
everyone one by one.
We're the only ones here.
Someone's bound
to know something.
Yeah, thank you.
Come on.
(gentle music)
(elevator bell chimes)
(button beeps)
(Finn sighs)
(door rattling)
(sighing) I'll say this though,
you weren't kidding.
It is cold out there.
Yeah.
(elevator whirring)
(upbeat ringtone plays on phone)
(ominous music)
(upbeat ringtone plays on phone)
(satellite phone beeping)
(ominous music)
[Finn] Yeah.
Yeah, we're on our
way back, yeah.
We'll be up in a minute, bye.
(satellite phone beeping)
(tense dramatic music)
You have a satellite phone?
Yeah.
Gotta be prepared when
you're out on the mountain.
Mm-hmm.
(tense dramatic music)
You know, I asked if
anyone had service earlier?
Yeah, no, I just had
to charge it, is all.
Oh, yeah.
(elevator door chiming)
(tense music)
You coming?
You know what, I'll
catch up with you.
(scoffing) You sure?
Sure.
(dramatic music)
(Aubrey gasping)
(satellite phone beeping)
(Finn sighing)
We got a problem.
(dramatic music)
And this.
(register beeping)
(dramatic music)
Chloe?
(tense music)
Chloe?
Chloe?
Chloe?
(dramatic music)
Chloe?
Chloe?
(tense music)
(dramatic music)
Chloe.
(Chloe grunting)
(gentle music)
I thought I was never
gonna see you again.
I was looking for help.
I thought when
they moved the van,
I thought that you were gone.
You have to get me
out of here, please.
(gentle music)
(elevator bell chimes)
(elevator door rattling)
Someone's coming.
You have to go.
Okay. Okay.
Shh. Yeah.
I'm sorry, I'll be back.
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music)
(Aubrey gasping)
(Aubrey gasping)
(phone clattering)
(suspenseful music)
(tense dramatic music)
(tense dramatic music)
Hey, you promised
this would be easy.
[Finn] Relax, it'll all
be over in the morning.
[Armstrong] Okay,
but the woman, she's...
Let me handle the woman.
(dramatic music)
(wind whooshing)
Vivian?
Vivian!
(Vivian gasping)
I'm sorry to wake you, but...
I wasn't sleeping.
I was dozing.
I need to talk to you.
No, no, not here.
I need you to see something.
Okay.
(Vivian gasping)
If what you're saying is true,
then we need to notify the
authorities right away.
I told you the security
guard's part of it.
Well, then call 911.
How? Everything is down!
Why don't you just bring
her into the terminal?
He can't do anything
with all of us around.
It's not that easy.
(Vivian sighing)
(dramatic music)
Oh, my.
Come on.
(dramatic music)
You okay?
Mm-hmm.
This is my friend Vivian.
She's gonna help us get
you out of here, okay?
My, you're a
gorgeous little thing.
I'm cold.
Okay, here let me.
Let me.
Do you know who took you?
Do you know why?
We're gonna wrap her in the
blankets and keep her warm,
and we're going back
to the terminal.
And then?
And then we're gonna do
everything we can think of
to contact the authorities and
keep that little girl safe.
I'll fix her blankets.
(dramatic music)
Okay, I'll be back.
You were right
about everything.
(Vivian sighing)
We have to stay sharp.
My heart is pounding
is mile a minute.
Mine too.
What do you think
is in on this?
It could be anyone in there.
What about the
couple Jon and Leigh?
I don't know.
They're definitely odd.
I guess I could see them
having something to hide.
I thought they've
made no effort to fit in
from the very beginning.
He's so antagonistic.
What about the janitor?
Hell, what about the
kid from the gift shop?
The bottom line
is we don't know.
(gentle music)
Maybe...
Maybe I should
just tell everyone?
I mean, the more
people who know,
the less likely it is that Finn
and whoever he's working
with could hurt all of us.
(gentle music)
I think I'm drinking
this too quickly.
(dramatic music)
(Aubrey gasping)
(ominous music)
Vivian.
(body thudding)
[Therapist] Have
you ever thought about
why you're afraid of
forming new relationships?
I never really
thought about it.
Is it possible is some kind of
proactive defense mechanism?
I suppose.
After all, you can't get hurt
if you don't have
anyone to lose,
is that right?
If you allow yourself to open up
and become vulnerable,
you might be surprised about
who you bring into your life.
(Aubrey sighing)
Try to relax.
Disorientation's
perfectly normal.
It was for her.
(dramatic music)
It was you?
You took her?
Actually, my dear,
just the opposite.
(dramatic music)
They were bringing her to you.
Why?
For reasons not as nefarious
as you might imagine.
You kidnapped her.
I'm bringing her home.
Who are you?
I'm her grandmother.
(dramatic music)
No.
No, she didn't recognize you.
That's because I've
never met her before.
Chloe is the daughter
of my eldest son Jason,
Finn's brother.
(dramatic music)
So, where's Jason now?
Prison.
My son's not perfect.
I'll be the first to admit that,
but he was a good father.
Yeah, I bet.
But his wife, (scoffs)
She always hated us.
When Jason went away,
what did she do?
(scoffing) She cut
us off completely,
remarried, changed her
name, and disappeared!
But don't worry,
because her father's
gonna be getting out soon
and his daughter's gonna
be waiting for him.
You must know that
Chloe's mother's
never gonna stop
looking for her.
(Vivian chuckling)
Do you know how many
children disappear every year?
The police don't
have the resources
to look for all of them,
especially not
outside the country.
(dramatic music)
We're only a couple
hours flight from Canada.
(sighs) Well, look at the
time, it's almost four.
We have to start
getting her ready.
[Finn] Don't worry, I
have plenty of medicine.
What about security?
Taken care of like I promised.
Good.
(dramatic music)
(wind whooshes)
Chloe, time to get ready.
(dramatic music)
Just think when you wake up,
you'll be home, safe and sound.
(suspenseful music)
[Aubrey] What are you
going to do with me?
I haven't decided.
I didn't anticipate any of this.
You are a very
resourceful young lady.
Thank you.
[Vivian] I want you to
believe when I tell you
I really want as few people
as possible to get hurt.
Wow, that's so
thoughtful of you.
(dramatic music)
(suspenseful music)
(suspenseful music)
Chloe?
What the...
(Finn gasping)
(suspenseful music)
(satellite phone beeping)
(Finn gasping)
What do you mean, she's gone?
How can she pick a lock?
(dramatic music)
(Aubrey grunting)
She's cold.
She's lonely.
She's gonna want to get inside.
(Aubrey gasping)
Don't come back without her!
(suspenseful music)
Okay, now where were we?
Aubrey!
Aubrey!
(wind howling)
(dramatic music)
(lights buzzing)
(machines humming)
(suspenseful music)
(dramatic music)
There you are?
What's going on?
There's a girl in
the garage thing.
They had her in a van.
I'm sorry. What?
She was chained up and gagged.
They're gonna try and
fly her out of here.
(dramatic music)
What?
He says you're
talking to fast.
(dramatic music)
They abducted her.
They're gonna fly her
across the border.
Who's flying her
over the border?
Finn, Vivian.
(dramatic music)
He wants to help.
He says we should get the
security guard down at TSA.
No, no, no, you can't do that.
(dramatic music)
Why not?
Because he's
working with them.
(ominous music)
Listen to me, all of you.
I don't want to hurt anyone.
But 50,000 volts will sting.
What about that girl?
You gonna hurt her.
They'd have to find her first.
Am I right?
(suspenseful music)
(dramatic music)
Chloe?
Where are you, Chloe?
(Finn panting)
Chloe, it's 15 degrees,
and I know you
don't have a jacket.
(dramatic music)
(tense music)
So how about you just
come back inside, huh?
We'll get your warm, get
you something to eat.
We'll get you ready
to get out of here.
What do you say?
I said, "What do you say?"
(suspenseful music)
How much did
they give you, huh?
Whatever it was it couldn't
have been worth it.
Sit down!
You can still end this
before anyone gets
hurt, or worse.
I said sit down.
Even if you manage
to get through this,
what do you think is
gonna happen, huh?
The police, the FBI they
will be looking for you!
You will be a wanted man
for the rest of your life!
There is missing girl out there.
She's cold and she's afraid.
She's alone.
Help me find her.
Well?
[Finn] I checked
the whole garage.
The kid probably froze to death.
[Vivian] Finn!
What?
She's your niece!
Yeah, okay.
You got a better idea.
You're a scared child.
You're looking for
someone you trust.
What would you do?
(tense music)
She's right,
you can't do this.
Sit down, old man!
[Jed] Come on.
You don't wanna
hurt these people.
[Armstrong] I am not
going to ask you again.
It's Christmas Eve.
Can't you see these
people are scared.
Sit down!
(taser buzzing)
(suspenseful music)
(machine whirring)
(machine beeping)
(Armstrong grunting)
(machine whirring)
Is he?
He's unconscious.
[Claire] What's going on?
It's a long story.
Jed, what time the staff start
arriving for morning flights?
The first shift
clocks in at five.
We can wait that long, right?
We can, but she can't.
Where's the closest place to
get help outside the airport?
There's an office park,
other side of the freeway.
There's usually someone there.
(dramatic music)
(Leigh sobbing)
(Leigh sighing)
(gentle music)
Okay.
We have our coats
and our gloves.
We can go look for help
while you look for the girl.
I don't think you realize
how bad it is out there.
Jon, I can't ask
you to do that.
You're not asking.
I'll let you out through
the maintenance door.
Run straight across the tarmac.
You'll see the buildings
when you get to the street.
Keep your phones charged.
You don't know when they're
gonna start working again.
(dramatic music)
He says he's sorry.
He was a real jerk.
You don't have to
freeze to apologize.
He knows.
Good luck, and thank you.
(dramatic music)
What do we do?
We split up and find Chloe.
(tense music)
Chloe?
Hey, Chloe?
(wind whooshes)
(Claire gasping)
Chloe!
(Claire gasping)
Chloe, are you out here?
(dramatic music)
Chloe?
Chloe?
Chloe?
(dramatic music)
Chloe.
Chloe.
Chloe, you in here?
(tense music)
Chloe.
[Finn] What do you
expect out of me?
I know as much as you do.
This isn't something...
- [Vivian] She's gone!
[Finn] What do you want
me to say? I don't know.
She couldn't have gotten far.
It a regional airport.
There are only so many
places that she can be.
Then we better find her,
because people are gonna start
showing up early
for their flight.
(ornament rattling)
(suspenseful music)
Shh, shh.
Taser. Taser.
Chloe?
Sweetheart.
(dramatic music)
We're not gonna hurt you.
Come on, I promise.
Chloe, we're gonna take
very good care of you.
Chloe?
(Aubrey gasping)
(suspenseful music)
(Finn gasping)
(Aubrey gasping)
- Where is she?
- I don't know.
Where did you hide her?
Answer me!
Here!
(suspenseful music)
(Aubrey crying)
Leave her alone!
(Aubrey screams)
(suspenseful music)
(Finn grunting)
(suspenseful music)
[Aubrey] Chloe!
I know you're
down here, Chloe.
I don't wanna have to hurt you.
(suspenseful music)
I just gotta get
you ready is all.
Look, I promise you you're
gonna love your new home.
There's lots of land.
We got...
You like animals, huh?
We got lots of animals.
We got horses, chickens,
and no rules.
No one to tell you what
to do or what to eat,
what time to go to bed.
(dramatic music)
All right, come on.
Come on, Chloe, it's time.
You're upsetting your...
(metal gate rattling)
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
This isn't funny anymore!
Open the gate!
(Finn grunting)
It's locked!
Ow.
[Vivian] Well, figure it out!
You're hurt.
It's okay.
You're bleeding.
It's fine.
(Finn grunting)
Listen to me, Aubrey.
This say family matter.
(gate rattling)
It has nothing to
do with you, okay?
I think, we can
let her decide.
She deserves that.
She deserves to
be with her father.
Vivian, are you
listening to me?
If you don't want your
granddaughter to get hurt,
you will get back.
(Finn pounding on gate)
Then let her go.
Then, no one needs to get hurt.
Why don't you come
in and get her then?
(Finn pounding on gate)
Think this through.
Aubrey, you don't
even know the girl.
It's not worth throwing
your life away.
(dramatic music)
Dammit!
Stand back!
You should go.
Don't.
Listen to me.
I'm not going anywhere.
We're getting out of
here together, okay?
(heavy pounding on gate)
Okay.
(Finn grunting)
(suspenseful music)
What's going on?
I know you.
See those two
people out there?
Yeah.
They're trying to
kidnap this girl.
The kid?
I need to get her out of here.
Can you help me do that?
(dramatic music)
Through the backdoor,
down the hallway.
You'll find a stairwell that
leads underneath the airport.
Thanks, come on.
Hey, I think I saw the kid!
(Finn groaning)
(dramatic music)
(Graham laughing)
(suspenseful music)
(electricity buzzing)
(suspenseful music)
This way.
Watch your step.
(tense music)
[Vivian] Aubrey.
Chloe.
(electricity buzzing)
Aubrey, you've
got nowhere to go.
Um, try that way.
Okay.
[Vivian] Chloe!
(suspenseful music)
(Vivian gasping)
(dramatic music)
Aubrey.
(wind blowing)
I'm gonna give you one more
chance to do the right thing.
(dramatic music)
Let her go, Aubrey.
(faint thumping)
(light dramatic music)
(light dramatic music)
Where did you go?
(faint rattling)
(dramatic music)
Are you in here?
No more games.
Where's my granddaughter?
She's gone.
Gone where?
I sent her away.
Someplace safe.
I don't believe you.
I had to make sure
you didn't follow.
Well, if that's true,
then what's stopping me
from hurting you right now?
(Aubrey gasping)
Chloe, come out here right now,
or I'm gonna hurt
your new friend!
(Aubrey grunting)
(suspenseful music)
You hear me, Chloe?
I'm gonna hurt her
unless you come out.
I'm gonna give you till
the count of three.
(Aubrey gasping)
One!
Two!
Two-and-a-half!
(dramatic music)
I'll go with you.
Just don't hurt her.
(Aubrey gasping)
(Vivian laughs)
Look at that.
The girl's smarter than you are.
(Vivian screaming)
(Vivian gasping)
(Vivian gasping)
(taser buzzing)
Over here!
(Vivian gasping)
(Vivian grunting)
(suspenseful music)
(taser buzzing)
(suspenseful music)
(Aubrey gasping)
(dramatic music)
(Leigh speaking faintly)
What a mess.
[Leigh] And then Jon said
we should tell
the security guard
and the next we know he
comes in with a taser g*n.
And he says that
he's going to...
[Detective] Sweetheart.
Do you mind if I talk
to Aubrey for a minute?
It's okay.
(Leigh speaking faintly)
We've reached
the girl's mother.
She's on her way.
She should be here
in a couple of hours.
I can't imagine what
she must be going through.
Yeah, she's very
lucky, you know,
that you found her when you did.
If it wasn't for you,
there's no telling
what would've happen
to that poor soul.
I'm assuming you
spoke to Jon and Leigh?
Very brave of them to go
out in a storm like that.
I just can't imagine how
anyone could sink so low,
and for a member
of their family.
Did you know that
72% of child abductions
are be relatives?
Well, whatever it takes,
statements, testimony,
I'm happy to give
you what a need.
I appreciate that.
I'm sure the DA is gonna wanna
have a long chat with you
once the dust settles.
But for now, we've
apprehended two suspects.
[Aubrey] Including Finn?
[Detective] We found only two,
the woman and the
security guard.
Yo, that's my girl!
[Agent] He's the
girl who stopped them.
With a little help
from your friend here.
We're like a crime-fighting
duo you and me.
Did you save the kid?
She's safe.
Right on.
(all chuckling)
Do you think this
will be on the news?
I'm not really sure.
You mind if I get
a pick for the Gram?
Actually, I think
those officers over there
are waiting to talk to you.
Okay.
(gentle music)
Bye.
Hey.
You and me selfies later?
We'll see.
(cellphone chiming)
Excuse me, there's a
call I need to make.
Absolutely.
We will be in touch.
Thank you.
(keypad beeping)
(cellphone ringing)
There you are.
I was wondering when
I might hear from you.
I should be on my way shortly.
How's everything?
About seven
pounds, eight ounces.
(gasping) A Christmas baby!
And I missed it.
Don't worry about it.
He's been asleep
most of the morning.
So, how'd it go with you?
Boring night stuck
in the airport.
Uh, not quite.
But, I can tell you
more when I get there.
Fly safe,
and Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
(keypad beeping)
Hey.
- Hi.
Do you have to go?
Not until your
mother gets here.
How about we ask
those nice officers
if we can get some
breakfast, hmm?
Good, because I'm starving.
[Aubrey] You ever
had a Christmas burger?
- No.
- Oh, we gotta fix that.
(bright upbeat music)
Okay, folks
after a rough night
for Santa and his reindeer,
things are definitely
looking more
like it's gonna be
a jolly Christmas.
Temperatures are already
starting to warm up,
and, in fact, some of these
readings are now in the teens.
By this afternoon, we're
looking at temperatures
in the upper 30s perhaps
maybe even the low 40s.
There is gonna be lots of
sunshine across the Midwest.
With clear beautiful skies
and with all of that
fresh fallen snow
make sure you take
out those sleds
and have yourself
a Merry Christmas.
(bright cheerful music)
(door lock clicking)
Chloe's mom
called me yesterday.
Yeah, she and Chloe are planning
to come to LA to
visit next month.
Sounds to me like
you're getting over
your fear of attachment.
Is that an "I told you so?"
[Therapist] More like an
"I knew you could do it."
Thanks.
(gentle music)
And who knows,
maybe I don't have to go
through life completely alone.
I'm proud of you, Aubrey.
Thank you.
[Therapist] So I'll see you
at the usual time time Friday?
You bet.
- Bye.
- Bye.
(gentle music)
(teapot whistling)
Sounds like
you're doing better.
(tense music)
Finn.
No, no.
It's really great to see
everyone doing so well.
Um,
Chloe back home with her mom,
and you're working on
your personal problems.
And everything's just
hunky-dory now, isn't it?
Mm-hmm.
My family, on the other
hand, well, let's see.
Mom's facing 20 years to life.
My brother's parole was denied
because he was quote,
"an accessory."
My niece has disappeared again,
so, in a nutshell,
yeah, not doing so well.
(dramatic music)
How did you find me?
(Finn chuckling)
Oh, I hope you don't mind,
but I took the liberty
of going through
your purse while you
were unconscious.
Come on.
Haven't we chased each
other enough by now?
See this is really nice.
We're just having a little chat.
(dramatic music)
I know you're a
good woman, Aubrey.
You're kind.
You're compassionate, smart.
I just wish you
hadn't gotten involved
because I know you
don't deserve this.
Deserve what?
(dramatic music)
Okay.
Okay, so,
here's the thing.
I know you're gonna
be the star witness
in the case against my mother
because you're the only one
who can place her at the scene.
I mean, without you,
they have no case.
They'll have no choice
but to drop the charges.
No, you're
forgetting about Chloe.
No, I'm not,
because she's family
and you're not.
(dramatic music)
(tense music)
Remember this?
(Aubrey sighing)
(Finn sighing)
You're going to drug me again?
That was one dose.
And this is five.
(Aubrey crying)
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
You're just gonna fall asleep.
There's no pain.
There's no suffering.
I mean, by the time
you stop breathing
you'll be wrapped in
a blanket of calm.
I'll pass.
Trust me when I tell you it's
better than the alternative.
I thought you were the
smart reasonable one, Finn.
Your brother was the
black sheep not you.
And your mom,
what did you call her again?
"An overbearing basket case."
(Finn scoffing)
You think you got me all
figured out, don't you?
There's only one way this ends,
and door number one is
closing pretty fast.
What makes you think
I'll make this easy on you?
Because door number
two is gonna hurt
a hell of a lot more.
(dramatic music)
Smart girl.
(Finn grunting)
(suspenseful music)
(Aubrey gasping)
(suspenseful music)
Aubrey!
(suspenseful music)
(Finn gasping)
Come on, Aubrey!
Open the door!
(suspenseful music)
You're making this
harder than it has to be!
[Operator] 911
what's your emergency?
There's a man in my house,
and he's trying to k*ll me.
(suspenseful music)
Aubrey, open up!
[Operator] Okay,
ma'am, stay calm.
Are you able to lock
yourself in a room?
[Finn] Open the door!
He's breaking down the door.
(Finn grunting)
[Finn] Aubrey!
[Operator] Try
to stay barricaded.
Officers are en route.
Aubrey, open it!
(heavy pounding on door)
(suspenseful music)
(heavy pounding on door)
(Finn laughing)
You know when we first
met there at the airport,
I thought, uh,
maybe we could've had something.
I mean, sure,
I knew you were probably
way out of my league, but,
I really did wonder
what it would be like
to have someone
like you in my life.
(tense dramatic music)
Sounds like a real prince.
(Finn grunting)
(suspenseful music)
(Finn gasping)
What would you have
done to save your family?
What would you...
(somber music)
(Aubrey gasping)
(siren wailing in distance)
(light somber music)
(dramatic music)
