After Seth, you were involved in every investigation. When did you first meet Jigsaw?
[Flashback]
John Kramer Yes. Thank you.
What floor are you going to?
John I think we're both going to the same place.
[Flashback]
You're assuming this is going to play out the way you want it to.
John I assume nothing. I anticipate the possibilities and... I let the game play out.
Then why do you need Amanda in the game?
John To ensure that the rules are followed. She won't make decisions for anyone. She will just... offer choices.
That leaves a lot to chance.
John If you're good at anticipating the human mind... it leaves nothing to chance.
[Flashback]
What's going on with Amanda? Didn't you tell me the only way to truly offering enlightenment is by not attaching emotionally?
John But you can have something Amanda doesn't: anonymity. That's the greatest protection. That's what I've given you. I need you to set up a game. It may not be entirely clear, to you right now. But I assure you that the people being tested are a part of something much larger. They're connected. So in the end, all the pieces will fit together and it'll be clear.
Amanda will fail you.
John We'll see. [hands him a folder]
What's this?
John It's time to play a game.
The tub wasn't meant for one person. We were supposed to hold one cable each, and suffer a small shock. It was meant for five people. They all were, every game. We only needed one key in the first room. They all worked and any one of them would've opened every collar. In the second room, the three tubes were large enough for more than one person. We were supposed to work together so we all survived. That's the game!
"Your lifelong instincts will tell you to do one thing but I implore you to do the opposite." Oh, god. Whoops.
Yeah... [Sees nine seconds left on the timer] Big **** whoops!
Tell me how to open it! How do I open it?!
However, if you choose not to, you will never be heard from again. Your body will never be found. You will simply vanish.
I ask you, Special Agent Strahm: Have you learned enough to trust me?
[Flashback]
Will you heed my warning? For if you do not...
**** you.
...this room will forever be your tomb.
[Present]
And my legacy will become yours.
[Flashback]
John If you're good at anticipating the human mind...
I think I'm being followed.
Who would be following you?
I want to talk to Jill Tuck one last time.
He suspected someone on the inside.
John ...it leaves nothing to chance.
We were all supposed to die. You were supposed to be the "hero."
[Present]
Make your choice.
Cowan... Yeah, this is Erickson. I want you to put out an A.P.B. Suspect's name is Peter Strahm. Yeah, that's right. Special Agent Peter Strahm.
Tell me how to stop it, you son of a bitch!
[shoots three more times] Peter Strahm [Last Words]: I know who you are! I know!
[Strahm climbs the converging walls and tries to escape through the ceiling vent while the Box is lowered safely into the floor. Strahm's left arm is caught between the walls, Strahm screaming in terror and breaking violently and showering his blood onto the coffin. Hoffman looks away as the walls come to a close.]
John By the way... the blade on your pendulum was inferior. If you want a true edge... you have to use tempered steel. Tempering's better for the long haul. You in this for the long haul, Detective?
I've been a cop for twenty years. Is that long enough for you?
John I wanna know if you have what it takes to survive.
John The heart cannot be involved. Emotionally, there can be nothing there. It can never be personal.
