[Hoffman, Rigg and some other police officers have discoverd Detective Kerry's corpse] [After Rigg foolishly goes through a door]
Are you trying to get yourself killed? You know never to go through an unsecure door. Ever.
I thought she was still alive. I thought I could save her. Did you ever think that we would end up here when you first started?
No. I didn't see it happening like this. Why the hell do we still do it?
It's in our nature to save them. It's what we do.
Right. [Reading off the wall behind Rigg] "Cherish your life."
What?
The **** motto. We're supposed to cherish our lives.
Well, how the hell are we supposed to do that when this is our lives?
We chose this. Go home.
Man
[Over radio]
Hoffman, there are two agents here to see you.
Copy.
Lindsey Perez Detective Hoffman?
Yes.
Lindsey Perez I'm special agent Lindsey Perez. This is special agent Peter Strahm.
How can I help the FBI?
Lindsey Perez We're here about Detective Kerry. She was our liason.
"Open the door and you will find me."
What? [Strahm tosses him a key] What's this?
The key that came from our last message from Detective Kerry. "Open the door and you will find me" mean anything to you?
No.
The crime scene photographer's flash picked up this bullet casing. It was lodged between the body and the device.
Run it for prints.
Lindsey Perez [Strahm and Perez enter]
The lock was open. She couldn't get out.
It was constructed for her exectution. Betrayed the rules.
Lindsey Perez Not a Jigsaw trap then.
No. Amanda Young, the accomplice--
This wasn't done by Amanda Young.
Excuse me?
Detective Kerry weighed aproximately 130 lbs. Amanda Young's arrest report has her at 107. She couldn't get her up there alone.
John Kramer was--
A bedridden cancer patient? He's brains, not brawn.
He was also an engineer. He could have rigged pulleys--
Or someone else could have helped him.
Special agent, if you're here for any other reason than just to assist--
We're here to help find who your department couldn't, detective: the one helping Jigsaw and Amanda Young.
[Strahm, Perez and other police officers have discovered Brenda's corpse from earlier.]
It's started.
Lindsey Perez Strahm... [Peter comes over; holding a flashlight over some of the photos] Two detectives. You see this?
Hoffman-- you got a 20 on him?
SWAT Pete
Not yet. [To Fisk] Hoffman.
Calling.
Lindsey Perez How do you explain Detective Matthews?
He's alive.
Lindsey Perez Six months. Jigsaw never kept anyone that long.
No one but Amanda Young.
Lindsey Perez You think he's been fixed?
Why these six?
Lindsey Perez Hoffman's a decorated lieutenant. He doesn't fit the profile.
That's what you see... but what does he see? [Gestures to the SEE WHAT I SEE on the wall]
Lindsey Perez Rigg trying to save his two friends.
Maybe. You got names and locations on any of these people?
SWAT Pete
Working it.
Lindsey Perez This is overkill. It's a setup to announce Rigg is the accomplice.
Or a setup for his alibi. Everyone around him keeps dying. Where is he to tell us he's innocent or what the hell these photos are doing in his apartment? Look there. [Shines a light to show ultraviolet paint]
Lindsey Perez "Four walls build a home?"
What does he want us to see on these walls?
Lindsey Perez The victims?
[Takes two photos]
One of these photos doesn't belong. [Takes off more pictures] This is who we're looking for. [The photos are of Jill Tuck]
[In Rigg's FEEL WHAT I FEEL test.]
He's been identified as Ivan Landsness. Aquitted of rape three times. Had to gouge out his own eyes in order to release himself.
Lindsey Perez How does something like this get into a motel room undetected?
Piece by piece.
SWAT Pete
The room's been rented for the past six days to a lawyer named Art Blank. Get this: he went missing two weeks ago.
Run his name, get his addresses. Two of the five people on Rigg's apartment walls are dead. Every partner he's ever worked with--dead.
Lindsey Perez Rigg didn't kill Ivan. Ivan made his own choice. Isn't that the whole Jigsaw mantra?
This wasn't about Ivan. It wasn't his test. [Points to the FEEL WHAT I FEEL on the door] It was about Rigg. [Takes two photos] Look at these photos. Tell me how you feel. Look at these women and tell me how you feel.
Lindsey Perez Angry. Enraged.
Exactly. The pimp, the rapist-- Jigsaw wanted Rigg to see what he sees. He wants him to feel what he feels. This wasn't about Rigg saving his friends. He's being recruited.
Lindsey Perez [At Rigg's SAVE AS I SAVE test]
"Save as I Save." So what did he do, free her and let him die?
This guy didn't have a chance. He's got rods going through every major artery in his body. "Your life is in her hands." Rigg didn't kill this guy. His wife did.
Lindsey Perez She identified Officer Rigg, said he saved her.
Saved?
Lindsey Perez Yeah.
She passed Rigg's judgment, got fixed and got her freedom back. [Perez answers her cell phone] Second address? [Perez gives a no gesture.]
Lindsey Perez [To Peter]
I just found out something interesting about the three people in the traps. They were all represented by a lawyer named Art Blank.
He got them all off?
Lindsey Perez Yeah. But wait. It gets better. He's also Jill Tuck's lawyer.
[A forensics man accidentally sets off a harpoon gun] [Pulls Perez out of the way]
Look out!
[The harpoon gun misfires and kills a forensic photographer]
The lair-- where's the lair?
Lindsey Perez Raided. It doesn't exist.
Jigsaw wanted us to find that place. Where's the new game being played? We find that place, we find Rigg.
Lindsey Perez We got a second address. There's a co-owner.
Who?
Lindsey Perez Jill Tuck.
Jill Tuck? Where's the building?
Lindsey Perez Here. This building.
Lindsey Perez [Reading a newspaper]
John Kramer owned a company called The Urban Renewal Group. No irony in that, huh?
What was Rigg watching?
Lindsey Perez Jill Tuck's interrogation. She was Jigsaw's ex. It's old.
Why is a SWAT guy watching that?
Lindsey Perez Strahm, I really think we should tell Hoffman what Detective Kerry said in her last message.
She said two officers might be in danger, but until we know who, we're not causing a panic.
Lindsey Perez If Detective Hoffman or anyone else in this precinct is in danger, I think they should know it.
Not your call.
Lindsey Perez I didn't know you were married.
I'm not. It's a short story, believe me.
Lindsey Perez Ms. Tuck. I'm Special Agent Perez. This is Special Agent Strahm. I'd like to apologize for pulling you out of your place of work.
What more do you think I can offer you? My 100 hours of interrogation tapes and the volumes of evidence taken from my house weren't enough for you understand John?
Lindsey Perez Actually, it's not John we want to talk about, Ms. Tuck. It's you.
Me? Why do you want to talk about me? This isn't about me. So stop wasting both of our time and get to the real reason why you've brought me here.
[Perez leaves]
Lindsey Perez [Strahm and Perez discover folders addressed to them. Strahm realizes they are being filmed and rips the camera off a wall.]
What does this mean?
We're the two Jigsaw targets.
[Strahm and Perez find Billy sitting in the principal's office, surrounded by candles and wearing a tape player. Perez plays the tape.]
Hello, Agent Perez. And welcome to the world that you have long studied. Your partner, Agent Strahm, will soon take the life of an innocent man. Heed my warning, Agent Perez: Your next move is critical. [Whispers] Open the door...
Lindsey Perez What is that?
[Perez leans in to hear a ticking sound. The Billy puppet's head explodes, showering her face and neck with shrapnel.]
