Hello, 911

Oh, Jeff... I love you too... but…

These zip ties are getting a little tight. Do you think you could loosen them a little? I could order us something special to eat, baby….please?

Texas Roadhouse on center, is just around the corner.

Jeff wanted so much to believe Susan’s pleas, but would she say anything to get away?

He approached her slowly, pulling a knife from his pocket.

Just then, the police burst through the door, guns blazing, killing Jeff instantly.

As they freed Susan’s hands from her restraints, she dropped the phone.

The 911 operator released the call.
