[first lines]

Help! Someone, help me! Is someone there? Hey! Oh, shit, I'm probably dead.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

You're not dead.

Who's that? Who's that?

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

There's no point yelling. I already tried.

Turn on the lights!

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Would if I could.

What the heck's going on? Where am I?

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

I don't know yet.

What is that smell?

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Oh, wait... Hang on. Think I found something.
[the lights turn on]

[Adam is trying to see if someone has taken his kidneys]

You see any scars?

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

What?

This is what they do, man. They kidnap you, then drug you and before you know it, you're in a bathtub and your kidneys are on eBay.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

No one has taken your kidneys.

How can you tell from way over there?

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Because you'd either be in terrible agony or you'd be dead by now. Trust me.

What are you, a surgeon?

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Yes.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

How did you know to turn off the lights?

Who cares? It worked.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Yeah, but how did you know?

Instinct.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Instinct?

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

You know what? You're a terrible liar.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Who are you?

You know who I am.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Stop the lies! You're a liar! I need to know the truth!

I'm a liar? What did you do last night, Lawrence? Work at a hospital, saving sick children? You told me that after you left your house last night, you went to work at a hospital.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

That's because it's the truth.

No. Your wife is right, Larry. You don't recall getting your picture taken in the parking lot? [takes out some pictures and throws them] I can prove that you didn't go anywhere near a hospital last night.

Alison Gordon

How can you go through life pretending you are happy?

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

I am happy.

Alison Gordon

That is complete bullshit; I'd rather you break down and tell me you hated me. At least there would be some passion in it.

No! Lawrence, please! I'm begging you! Lawrence, it's not me who did this to you!

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

You have to die.

No! I want to live!

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

I'm sorry...

I want to live!

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

My family... [shoots Adam] There! I've done it! Now show them to me!

Tape

Hello, Mr. Hindle... or, as they called you around the hospital: Zep. I want you to make a choice. There's a slow-acting poison coursing through your system, to which only I have the antidote for. Will you murder a mother and her child to save yourself?
[Flashback]

Dr. Gordon's time is up.
[Present]

Tape

Listen carefully, if you will; there are rules.
[Flashback]

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

Why?

It's the rules.
[Present]

[the corpse in the room stands, peeling off the latex bullet wound cap] [points to the bathtub]

Key to that chain... is in the bathtub.
[Flashback]

[the key goes down the drain when Adam accidentally unplugs it]

He's a very interesting person. His name's John.

Dr. Lawrence Gordon

He has an inoperable frontal lobe tumor.

I'm sick from the disease eating away at me inside.

Detective Allison Kerry

Sounds like our friend Jigsaw.

I'm sick of people who don't appreciate their blessings.

Detective Allison Kerry

Looks like our guy likes to book himself front row seats to his own sick little games.

Tape

Hello, Mark - Paul - Amanda - Zep - Adam - Dr. Gordon. I want to play a game.
[Present]

[Adam tries to shoot Jigsaw, only to be given an electric shock that zaps the gun out of his hand]

Most people are so ungrateful to be alive. But not you... Not anymore. [Adam screams] Game over! [shuts the door]

[screams]

Don't! Don't! No! [screams fade out]
