Hello? Ken Kessler:
[voice]
Mr. Stone, listen very carefully. We have kidnapped your wife. We have no qualms about killing her and we'll do so at the slightest provocation. Do you understand? Sam Stone:
Who the hell is this? Is this some kind of a joke? Ken Kessler:
[voice]
I have no patience for stupid questions, Mr. Stone, and I don't like repeating myself! Do you understand? Sam Stone:
[face lights up]
All right. I'm sorry, please continue. Ken Kessler:
[voice]
You are to obtain a new, black, American Tourister briefcase, Model Number 8-1-0-4. Do you understand? Sam Stone:
Yes. Ken Kessler:
[voice]
In it, you will place $500,000 in unmarked, non-sequentially numbered $100 bills. Do you understand? Sam Stone:
Sure. [as the conversation goes on, a smile appears on Sam's face, and gets wider and wider...] Ken Kessler:
[voice]
Monday morning at 11:00 a.m., you will proceed with case in hand to Hope Street Plaza, and wait for a phone to ring. You will receive further instructions then. Do you understand? Sam Stone:
Yes, I do. Ken Kessler:
[voice]
You will be watched at all phases of execution. If you fail to appear at the designated time, or if any phase is not carried out to our complete satisfaction, it will be considered an infraction of the rules, and your wife will be killed. Do you understand? Sam Stone:
I believe so. Ken Kessler:
[voice]
If you notify the police, your wife will be killed. If you notify the media, she will be killed. If you deviate from our instructions in any way whatsoever, she will be killed. Do you understand? [Sam's grin is about to split his face open] Sam Stone:
Perfectly. [Cut to later, outside the Stone mansion, as fleets of police cars and news vans pull up!]
