l just...
Nikky's been making so much progress.
Come on, Daddy!

Seeing you like this, l think she worries,
after what her mother did,
that you, ifyou got depressed enough, might-
Never_
Look, l love Nikky more than anything in the world.
Nothing's going to happen to her.
Nothing. l promise.
Marco_

Okay, tell me.
We did our best,
and the operation was successful,
but with patients her age,
the body just can't handle the stress_
l'm sorry.
At this point, it's a matter of time_
[inhales]
[cell phone ringing]

[slow creaking]
[bell dings]
Oh, hello, ladies, Iet me give you-

Good-bye, Lana.
(Lana) Bye. Thank you.

[elevator rumbling]
[electricity zapping]
[elevator creaking]
Okay, what did you hit, kid?
l didn't hit anything.

We'll be up and running any second now.
[loud mechanical whirring]

[elevator rumbles]
Any second now.
Told you it didn't sound good.
(man3 Jt could be a silent alarm_
We're not in a bank_

[keypad beeping]
There's no service_
Yeah, l probably shouldn't use any more minutes anyhow.
That's clever_
Lighten up, kid.
Look, l got somewhere to be, okav?
Well, l don't, you know?
l was actually hoping this might happen.
God, Christ, my life is empty.
[camera clicks]

Erase the picture.
Why?
Just do it_
Just fuckin' do it_
Okay?
[phone beeps]
[Claudia thinking] She needs it_
_urrv.
(woman3 Claudia?
Claudia, where did you put them?
Put what?
Oh, don't be coy with me.
They were right here.
(woman) l don't go around hiding your asthma inhaler.
(Claudia) My inhaler's not gonna kill me.
(woman) 50 years from now, who knows?
Mm, scientists.
There you go.
[inhales]
(woman3 Aren't you going to join me?
No, l can't.
l have a to-do list a mile long.
l should have never gone to bed last night.
Are you going out like that?
l left my black veil at the cleaners_
l want more skin, not less_
We live on the beach. What are you, a nun?
Yes, Abuela, l am a nun_
When l was your age, I set this town on fire_
Let's go to the beach.
Uh-uh. l can't_
Mid-terms start next week_
(woman) Life is for living.
(Claudia) l know_ l know_
l'm trying to do that.
l just...
have to take care of some stuff first_
(woman) Listen, l love you, so don't take this the wrong way,
but you are starting to suck.
lfyou don't break, you'll bend.
lsn't it, ifyou don't bend, you'll break, l think?
No, no. No, it's not.
l mean, ifyou don't start taking breaks and breathe,
you'll mist into someone really horrible.
Okay, we'll go to the beach,
just for a little while.
(Karl) Keep Calm.
You are not in danger.
Got any water in here, dude?
ln most cases,
the elevator mechanic will arrive in 3O minutes_
O1 :38 and counting.
[camera beeping]
(Karl) Hey.
Where you going?
Where do you think? The ladies bathroom_
You look good tonight.

[loud creaking]
l think we're at floor level_
What do you think?
Yeah, it's worth a look. Yeah_
Be careful. Be careful_
(Karl) _ev, can vou give us a hand?
What do you expect me to do? My hands are sweaty too.
Maybe you'll let me see that.
Shit_
You always carry this around with you, kid?
A lot ofdangerous people out there_
Oh, shit.
[both grunting]
(Claudia3 Somebody help!
(Karl) Hello?
Help!
Can anybody hear us?
Shh. Do you hear something?
l don't hear anything at all.
Hello?
Hello!
We need help with the elevator_
[mumled shouts]
[ominous bass tones]
# #
(Karl) Let it go on three.
One, two, three.
Shit_
Somebody must've heard us.
This building is empty, man.
Even the freaking Golden Girls are gone.
Wait. Who else lives in the building?
There's got to be- there's that couple, right?
They have a newborn baby.
People don't go on vacations with babies_
Really?
Have you been on an airplane lately?
Hey, we're all in this together.
You don't have to be an asshole_
So l can't even disagree with you?
My God, what a fascist_
-That's not- -Look!
Let's calm down, okay?
(man3 With this heat wave,
every air-conditioner in the city's running.
lt's a blackout_
Well, then, that means the power should be back on soon_
(man3 Well, the one a few years ago Iasted almost mo days.
Someone died in a fucking elevator.
They died?
lt's not a blackout_
How do you explain the emergency lights?
(man3 It's a back-up generator, genius.
My hospital has a back-up generator.
Banks have back-up generators.
Well, what if the elevator's broken?
Huh?
(man3 Wait, wait, wait.
How many units have been rented?
l think it's, like, half finished.
Half finished?
There's five_
Well, there's- okay, this is three.
You live with your parents, right?
Where are they?
l don't know_ Aruba_
Okay, Maurie sisters. That makes four_
And the couple who are staying with theirrelatives
while they're having their plumbing redone.
They got a baby in tow.
(Karl) That makes five_
This could be a while_
Shit_
lt's a gateway drug.
You got to start somewhere.
Tommv?
l wanted to ask you something.
Someone told Olivia at school that
last year, you were banging fvie,
among others.
Sometimes l just worry that you do this with everyone,
that your promises, things you say...
l don't think it's an act, but...
rquiet chattingI
Help us!
l need to get out of here!
Don't yell!
Help! Oh, God!
Tommy, calm-
Hey, listen, calm down_
Hey, calm down. Calm down_
No, get off me!
Oh, my God. Oh, shit.
You mothemucker_
l'm really sorry.
Oh, Jesus, Iet me get a look at that.
Please_
You got to keep pressure on the lip.
Without ice, that's going to swell.
Get off me, man!
Hey, stop yelling.
(Tommy) Don't tell me what to do!
Calm down_
Look, l have got somewhere to be, and if this-
We all do! We all do!
Okay, the air is getting really thin in here, okay?
We need to relax_
We need to think logically, okay?
Let me get that knife.
[grunting]
(Claudia) Okay.
(Karl) The mountains it ain't,
but it's not bad_
(woman) l know l didn't know you then, and l shouldn't care, but...
Look_ Evie___
it was a drunk thing.
ltwas once_
And you...
You're pretty much the only right choice
l've ever made in my life.
And you know that l-
(man3 Francesca!
Shh_
francesca?
(Francesca) Fuck. It's early.
He must've lost. He must've lost bad_
Lost at what? Cards_
Get dressed_
You never told me your father gambles.
Doesn't everyone?
(man3 Qid you put it somewhere?
Where is the mail?
ls he-l mean, are you going to be okay?
(man3 One fucking thing for me, and you can't even do that.
Francesca!
You said your father was an accountant_
You said he never drinks_
He's not, and he does_
l'll tell you the rest of the gory details later,
but right now, you need to get out.
l'm the only one that can calm him when he loses_
He can't stay mad at his little girl.
Go_
Hey.
Hey, sorry to sneak up on you.
Just- Who the fuck are you?
Dad, Dad, this is my friend Tommy.
(Tommy) Hey, easy, easy.
(Francesca) No, Dad, just don't. Don't.
ln my house?
Fuck!
(man) What the hell?
Calm down. It's cool_
lt's cool_
[grunts]
[groaning lightly]
[Francesca sobbing]
lt's okay.
[Claudia exhales]
You have a family?
l have a daughter, yeah.
She's eight.
She's coming at 2:3O tomorrow.
(Claudia3 J don't think J've ever seen her around here_
(Karl) We have a house outside the city.
l bought this apartment
for nights l work late at the hospital.
You have a wife?
She's, um...
she passed away,
unfortunately.
Yeah, she passed away, unfortunately.
Oh, l'm so sorry.
(Karl) Yeah, well, it was hard.
lt was hard for a long time.
But, you know, when l look at my daughter now,
l can still- l can still see my wife in her.
You know, she's never really gone.
(woman) l think l can handle one more_
[quiet chatting]
lt's really so nice to finally hang out with a guy
and not have to worry about...
not have to worry about, you know?
Yeah, l know what you mean.
[engine turns]
(Karl) Go on_
(Karl) Okay, one, two, three.
What do you see up there?
Is there a door?
(Tommy) The one back here is wall
but there's another about 15 feet up there.
Maybe l can try to open it.
(Claudia) Do you think you can climb up there?
You need help up there?
(Tommy) No, no. It's all right. l can reach it.
Oh, thank God.
We're gonna be okay.
Shit_
Oh, God.
l'm sorry about before,
when l hit him_
Oh, it's all right.
You had to do something.
l was afraid it might upset you.
l'm fine_
Besides, he seems to be over it_
(Claudia) l feel like l'm never going to graduate.
l wish your grandfather could've seen you...
Worked in response...
Life is for living?
What does that even mean?
l am living my life right now.
(woman) You were just wonderful.
(Claudia) Life is work_
That's what l have to do_
(woman) l want better things for you.
(Claudia) Maybe it'll change at some point.
(woman) Better and better_
[brakes squealing]
As soon as we get out of here, there's something l have to do
Something about...that?
l mean the blood_
Some kind of accident?
lt's okay.
You don't have to___
(Karl) l have something l need to do too_
(Claudia) Does it have to do with your daughter?
More like for my daughter.
She's getting dropped off here tomorrow, 2:30.
And l really need to clean up.
She might not like what she'd find_
Come here_
Sit down_
Would you like some wine?
Yeah, l'd love some.
Red? White?
Pink?
White sounds good.
Okay.
Thanks_
Come on. Get loose_
Feel like you're at home.
Put your head back.
(Karl) This place, it's kind of like my bachelor pad, you know?
l usually use it for alone time.
[elevator creaking]
What is it, porn?
Do l look like that kind ofguy?
Yes, porn.
Let yourself go.
Let go.
Lose it with me_
[screams]
[loud thud]
Uh!

[loud screeching]
[low rumble]
Oh, my God.
[loud whooshing]
[loud crack]
Shit_
What the hell was that?
[Tommy yells]
What the fuck did you do up there?
(Claudia3 Hey, are you okay up there?
[Tommy groaning]
Don't touch my leg.
Don't touch it. Don't touch it_
Ugh.
[grunting]
lt's that bad, huh?
What the fuck did you do up there?
Karl, help me, please.
No, no, no! No, no.
-Hey. -[screams]
Karl, please!
Please_
Oh, fuck.
Ah!
Grab that knife_
Oh, God.
Well, it's definitely broken.
ls he going to be okay?
lfwe get out of here soon, yes.
We don't-
Wait. l don't want to lose my leg.
Yeah, well that's a lo\code(01f9)g ways off.
But we can do something.
l have some pills, some painkillers.
(Claudia) l have water_ Here_
You could've mentioned that sooner_
Sorry.
(Karl) For the pain, Tommy.
I Just don't drink it all okay?
That's allwe have_
That's it_
[garbled radio chatter]
(Claudia) What does it say?

Help!
We need medical attention in here_
Please help!
l think it only works one way.
Please help us!
Please_
(man3 We're aware of your emergency.
Please stay calm.
An elevator mechanic will be with you shortly.
And make it quick.
Thank God_
Any second now.
How do you think they're going to pull us out of here?
Let them worry about the logistics.
Right now, l just want to get out of here.

We're aware of your emergency.
Please stay calm.
rgarbled recording slowsI
Almost 4:OO in the morning.
Been in here nine hours_
[man speaking faintly] Severe internal bleeding.
Her organs are beyond repair.
lf she wasn't such a fighter, she'd be gone already.
(Claudia3 Js she in pain?
She's sedated, but she's conscious_
Does she know?
(man3 J was under explicit orders not to feed her any bullshit.
Do you want me to call anyone, parents, an aunt or uncle?
No, there's, um...
There's nobody.
lt's always just been me and my grandma, pretty much, so..
l'd like to see her now_
Help me!
[creaking]
[thudding]
(Tommy) Maybe we should sleep in shifts.
(Karl) What's that going to do, kid?
lf this elevator collapses,
it's going to do it whether or not we're keeping guard.
(Tommy) Remember, it's going to be daylight soon.
And if one of us hears something, like people outside,
we should be able to yell.
Tommy's right.
Of course he's right.
He disagreed with me.
So you want to go first?
[crying]
l can't take this anymore.
What are we going to do?
What can l do?
tet's run away.
After last night, he'll come back_
And things are only gonna getworse.
You know it_
That's crazy.
What's crazy is staying here with him.
We don't have the money for that.
No, but my father does.
And l know where he keeps it.
My father...
He always keeps some cash around the house for betting.
l found a wad yesterday.
Take it_
He owes you.
lf he finds out it's missing-
No, we'll be at the airport.
Tonight?
Tonight.
We need to think about rationing that water.
(Claudia3 He needs it_
Yeah, well, he's going to need it in six hours too_
And we'll need it in six hours_
We weren't the ones who tried to play superhero.
We're gonna be out of here by then.
Yeah?
l hope so.
[elevator squeaking]
Hey.
No way.
Excuse me?
Please don't. l have asthma_
l'll blow my smoke out the opening.
(Claudia) Sorry. No.
(Karl) Look, it's been a long time, lady.
l don't know ifyou've ever had an addiction-
Oh, l don't know ifyou've ever had
your throat close up on you before.
Well, you have your inhaler, right?
Yeah, but that's not he point-
Well, you know, you'll be fine.
l'm a doctor remember?'
[doorbell rings]
Tommy?
[knocking on door]
Tommy!
[phone ringing]
[knocking on door]
[francesca crying] Tommy, l know you're in there.
l saw your motorcycle outside.
Thanks a lot, asshole_
(Claudia3 Put it out_
l have asthma_
l said, ''Cut it out.''
l asked you to put it out, now.
l'm telling you to put that thing out.
l'm almost done_
lt's blowing back in the room_
No, it isn't.
Stop fighting.
This isn't good for any of us.
Jesus Christ, calm down, Claudia.
Maybe you should have one.
Oh, okay, you want to fucking pollute the air?
Go ahead. We'll just close the fucking door.
Ow!
Sorry.
Fucking bitch!
And everything for a fucking cigarette!
Great. Now we got a regular gimp collection.
(Claudia) l said l'm sorry.
(Tommy) It's been five hours, and we're already like _ord of the flies_
(Claudia) l said l'm sorry, okay?
Just like a woman!
Look, this isn't helping.
(Karl) And, you know, it's true, kid.
You used to be able to smoke anywhere, fucking anywhere:
movie theaters, airplanes, hospitals, supermarkets.
Fucking moral majority's taken over!
Calm down_
(Karl) Oh, God, l need to get out of here.
Let us out of here!
l hate this God damn-
Let us the fuck out!
Oh, my God, you have a temper.
God!
What, just like a woman?
Exactly, just like a woman to set a guy off...
And then calmly criticize him for blowing up!
What the fuck is your problem?
[elevator rumbling]
This is it_
Nobody move.
Shit_
[cable creaking]
Don't fucking move.
Shh_
Tommy?
[low rumbling]
Tommy?
[engine whirs past]
(Tommy) We were born in these lives, Francesca_
We didn't have a choice_
But it's time that we take over and do it for ourselves_
(Claudia3 _elp me!
[machine beeping]
Qon't cry.
Abuela, l'm sorry.
When it's your turn, it's your turn.
Shh, don't talk.
lt's okay.
l have to_
Last chance to piss you off.
Abuela, it's not funny.
Remember___
you'll have to bend-
lsn't it ''break''?
Whatever_
l just need you to get me something.
The photograph on my table.
l need him with me when my time comes.
l'll get you the photograph.
(man) At this point, it's a matter of time.
How long?
(man) Uh, maybe tomorrow,
maybe...
in a few hours_
(woman) Claudia_
Hurry.
l love you.
Hurry.
(Karl) You've been holding out on us.
What?
first water_
Now candy?
Fucking convenience store you got there.
Asshole. What the-
what are you doing?
What the-
Give it to me_
Give me the candy bar.
No_
Don't. Jesus, don't.
Here_
Give it back, please.
What the fuck?
That isn't cool, man.
Give it back to me, please.
l'd rather not_
Chill out, man.
[Tommy grunting]
Now, look...
We're not going to get out of here
until we stop yelling at each other
and start working together.
And we need one person, one,
to make all the decisions_
We need a strong leader.
Now, l'm just strengthening my hand.
And don't worry.
l'll give you a hit when you need one,
ifyou behave.
What kind of a monster are you?
[chuckles]
Monster?
Don't you think you're being a bit dramatic?
(woman) Maybe l'm just destined for something else.
l don't know_
l'd like to think l'm meant for higher things, though, you know?
Higher things.
My father always told me,
''To endure is to conquer our fate.''
Fate?
Yeah_
Do you really believe that shit?
l like your eyes.
Destiny sucks.
[woman screaming]
[breathing heavily]
(Karl) You'll be fine_
Yeah, you'll be fine.
There's no chance_
No destiny.
[breathing heavily]
No fate_
There's only what you take from the world
and what the world takes from you.
You know that now,
don't you...
mv darIin_?
[quivering breaths]
(Tommy) What the hell are you doing, man?
(Karl) Just making sure everything still works.
She's pretty good-looking, isn't she?
(Tommy) J got a girmriend, man.
At least l did_
God, l hope she's okay.
He's going to know by now.
Oh, boo-hoo.
My little girl sees the mess l made upstairs,
let me just say,
her idea of me as the perfect father
is going to be severely tested.
[Karl thinking] 2:3O_
She's going to be up there at 2:3O.
And her lips were trembling,
and l take this blade, and l cut her up.
And it's beautiful. Jt's fucking beautiful.
(Tommy) We were supposed to run away to Paris.
[chuckles]
Do people still run away?
l thought we placated all you kids
with cell phones and video games.
Shut up, man.
No, l'm just kidding around.
Paris, it's a great city.
The food_
Some of the women there
are even more sexually adventurous than l am,
and that's saying something.
[breathing heavily]
We're going to have to get something on these cuts.
What do you think she's like?
(Tommy) What do you mean?
(Karl) Usually the hot ones,
theyjust lay there.
You're out of line, man.
lt's true_
Bitches are so used to getting there way.
And why?
Just 'cause they look pretty.
[Karl thinking] Salt_
Up and down.
_ast breaths_
She seems like she likes this_
Salt_
They get all the jobs.
They get all the attention_
But what about the rest of us, Tommy?
What about us?
Sometimes l wonder
why was l born in such a fucked-up era?
Yeah, man.
Fucked up.
Yeah_
Well, you'll see what l mean someday, buddy.
[grunting]
Pills, man.
Please. Please_
7:3O_
Hope.
Let's have some fucking hope.
[Karl thinking] They're gonna find her.
[exhales]
Can you feel me now?
[grunting]
Can you feel me now?
[groans loudly]
(Tommy) The building, man.
Do you think...
Do you think it was terrorists?
(Karl) Terrorists?
ln the Bifrost Bridge Building?
Yeah_
You know what?
l'd say it was definitely terrorists.
But how do you think they made it past
all the security downstairs?
Maybe it was aliens, man.
Like in The TwilightZone,
when the electricity goes out,
and everybody thinks it was everyone else.
But really,
it was aliens_
Well___
l don't know about that_
But there's one thing l do know,
and that is that if l don't get out of here soon,
l'm going to cut your fucking throat...
and l'm going to rape the shit out of that cunt_
What?
[urine pattering]
[Claudia coughing]
Oh, God, how many cigarettes have you smoked?
Please give me mv inha Ier.
Give it to me_
Please give me my inhaler.
Please_
God damn it_
You'll get over it.
l want to show you something.
Look_
[Claudia wheezing]
Come here_
Look_
Fire alarm_
(Karl) You hold this
underneath the sensor
and we'll be hearing sirens before you've even climbed down.
l'm having a hard time breathing.
-You want a hit? -Please_
-Okay. -No_
[breathing heavily]
(Karl) And since you're going up there anyway...
Now, look, l really, really need to excuse myself
from this elevator_
So don't you dream of coming back here
without setting that alarm off_
[Claudia grunting]
[inhales deeply]
[grunting]
[gasping]
Come on. You can do this_
Come on_
[screams]
Come on_
