"Bambi tried to think,
but the raging noise tore all of his thoughts apart."
"Now and then, his mother came and whispered, 'Stay close.'"
"She shouted, but in all that..."
I'll never forget it.
I'll always hear the lines from Bambi
ringing in my ears in my mother's voice, forever.
In my mother's raspy voice.
My mother's one-of-a-kind, truly unique voice.
"Bambi tried to think,
but the raging noise tore all of his thoughts apart."
"His mother came and whispered, 'Stay close.'"
"She shouted, but in all that uproar
it seemed to Bambi that she was whispering..."
Oh.
Now, where were we, Bambi?
-"She shouted, but..." - Huh.
"...in all that uproar it seemed to Bambi that she was whispering."
"Then Bambi felt supported when he heard her say, 'Stay close.'"
"The words froze him in his tracks, like he was chained in place."
"If not for that, he would have run away without a second thought."
You have the whole thing memorized?
Yes, Mother. I also memorized the next part.
Yeah?
Actually, um, all of the chapters.
Every page.
The whole story, Mom.
I know all of Bambi by heart.
I see. You're tired of it.
It's boring and you're grown up now.
No, that's not it.
I just... I know what's gonna happen.
I thought I told you to wear the flowered shirt.
I wanted to wear this.
How I dress doesn't matter.
Neither does how I do my hair.
I'm growing up, Mother. I can't stay your little girl anymore.
Well, no more Bambi for you, then.
WHO WERE WE RUNNING FROM?
We followed the coast until we reached an ancient city,
about ten minutes from the hotel.
Mother?
We're staying at that hotel because they don't ask for our ID, right?
That's correct, Bambi. We need to lay low for just a bit.
I'll take a picture from over there.
Mother bought an instant camera for us.
- She's been taking lots of pictures of me. - Let's go.
You never liked taking pictures before.
When other people take pictures, I worry.
She's only doing it because I'm getting older.
Now, smile.
With the photos,
she can keep me from growing up completely.
What happened?
I can sense how close they are to us.
They haven't stopped. They're hunting us.
And there's something else I can't quite put my finger on.
- Wait. What do you mean? - I'm not sure...
Damn, it's too hot out here.
I can't even keep my thoughts straight.
Let's sell that land. We'll get our money and leave.
Yeah, I mean, why wait?
We have to wait. But I'll tell you when it's safe to go.
We need to be very careful.
Actually, we've already been here a few days now.
And we still haven't talked to the realtor.
- We've just been staking out his office. - Come on, Bambi!
I want a picture of you next to that one, too!
I don't know how we didn't see this stunning photo op.
You already shot this one the other day.
You've taken my picture at, like, every single rock here.
Am I supposed to believe you memorized that, just like Bambi? Huh?
Did I do something? I didn't mean to upset you.
Everything's getting worse and worse. But I can't figure out a solution.
Please don't do this to yourself.
We can do it. We'll figure it out.
Are you really that afraid of me?
I'm just worried that something will happen to you.
Bambi, baby. My sweet baby.
Race you to the hotel!
- Really? - Come on, let's go. I'll race you!
I'm going to let you have that head start, Mom!
I'd take advantage of it if I were you!
I'm right behind you!
You're faster than me! Bambi's grown up!
Baby, come here.
What's wrong?
Did you get a look at that black car going down the street?
There is no car, Mother.
I want to be sure.
It was...
it just went down this street.
I think we should go back to our room if you're starting to see things again.
I'm having a hard time figuring out what's real and what's not.
Seven years ago, in Piazzale Michelangelo, Florence,
a woman, mentally unstable, was violently killed.
So, you can guess how surprised we were
when the Italian police ended up reaching out to us to run fingerprints,
and when they turned out to match the mother's.
So we decided to dig
and uncovered the fact that she and her daughter were there
at the time the lady was killed,
hotel-hopping in Florence.
So it's not just Türkiye. It's anywhere that she stays.
Berlin, New York, Budapest.
And she only has one reason.
They threatened her daughter.
Everyone killed had a thing for scaring little girls,
so suppose they crossed paths with the daughter
and then harassed the little girl, so...
Obviously, they've disappeared by now.
By the way, on those exact dates,
a father who's been out of the picture for years shows up out of nowhere.
Either something's already gone down,
or it's about to get real ugly, real soon.
Aren't we kinda far away from our hotel, Mother?
The farther the better right now, Bambi.
Oh, all right.
- Look, will that work? - Yeah.
Dial that number right there.
- Yes, hello? - Yeah.
My property is the one located close to the beachside.
Do you remember me?
Hi, ma'am, of course I do. I've been waiting for you to call.
I hadn't heard from you and never got your number. I was expecting you.
Well, I'd like to be there in just about an hour or so.
That's what we said, right?
No, now is great, really. I was expecting your visit, ma'am.
Come on down. Let's talk business.
- I'll even make you a cup of tea. - We would love to hurry this up.
Yeah, sure. I'll get you the address.
Yes, I'll be there soon.
Let's go, Bambi.
Hello, sir. The lady has finally called.
So, she showed finally?
Yes, sir, she did. She said she'll be there within the hour.
Listen...
just make sure everything goes to plan.
Of course, sir, just as planned. Don't worry.
- Sir? - They're coming now.
- What can I do, sir? - Go get the car ready.
Yes, sir.
Mother, after this we can go in, right?
Yes, baby.
Come on, Bambi.
What are you seeing?
Nothing. You?
Same here.
The street is all clear, baby.
Now what's he looking at?
Hey! Bring me the mirror. I'll take a look.
Okay, Bambi. Come.
All right, it's time to go now.
Don't get too close to the old man. Wait here.
- Is this okay? - Uh-huh.
- Are you in position? - We are.
- Team Bravo? - Almost there, sir.
Be ready for anything. You got me?
- Are you afraid, my baby? - Uh, no, I'm not.
I raised you on the run, hotel-hopping. Danger surrounded you growing up, Bambi.
You wanna know why you're so special?
It's because you've always been a survivor.
Maybe you're the reason I'm special, right?
We're in position. The realtor is in range.
-Copy that. - Roger, copy.
No one's around. Whenever you're ready.
Let's go, Mom.
Hey!
What, baby?
Did you see that black car there?
- What's that? - It's parked around that corner.
I could see it in that mirror.
- Like the one we smashed on the beach? - Like the one you said your dad had.
I can see it. It's right there.
Can you see it in the mirror?
Baby, stay low.
Who's that?
That's the part I can't figure out.
Is Grandpa still around?
He is like a snake,
waiting to ambush us.
He waited until we bought that land. He knew we'd be coming right here.
Are you positive it's him?
How don't you see what's really going on?
He's been conspiring with the realtor to trap us.
Now we have to stay put.
The man has a plan, obviously. This has all been deliberate.
And what does he want from us?
He's wicked, baby, and I'm his target.
But he...
Yes, what?
He's here for my daughter.
Let's find another realtor. We can sell without even meeting this guy.
No, it's too late.
And I bet he's working with all the realtors in town.
The way he's playing, we don't have a chance.
So what's the plan?
There's one option left now.
Uh, yeah, sir, I swear no one showed.
- What should I do? - I'm gonna head home.
If anything happens, I'll reach out.
All right. I'll swing by your place tonight with some docu--
We're gonna tail the old man, guys. All other units carry on.
Copy that. Mission aborted. All units back to the station.
Is that him, Mommy?
That is him.
Stay close, Bambi.
Mom?
Mommy?
Your medication, sir.
- If that'll be all, sir? - You may leave.
Have a good night.
Good night.
The maid's left for the night.
No way!
A New York hotel manager was killed with a box cutter.
- You think it was her? - Could be.
Oh, wow. Look, the fingerprints match.
Dude, the guy she killed was 6'6".
Holy shit.
But she's so scrawny and thin. How could she possibly pull that off?
Well, maybe that's her thing.
Nobody suspects anything, and that way, she gets away with it.
Put it down.
Come on.
Give me your cane.
Turn.
Slowly.
Let's have a little chat.
How dare you get in our way?
Huh?
Why are you messing with me?
What did you want from these people? Huh?
What did they do to you?
I just want an answer.
- You have one for this? - Not for you.
In fact, you don't get to ask me any questions ever again.
Don't you feel sorry for this poor girl?
You need to get help.
Keep that advice for yourself.
I'm here one last time to tell you, Dad.
Don't mess with me, okay?
I'll give you any amount of money.
And I can send you wherever you want to go.
Just leave her with me.
Really?
I mean, look at you. You're in no condition.
Are you kidding me?
That's perfect, coming from you, Dad.
You have every right to say that.
Here.
- Keep your hands where I can see them. - No, no. No problem.
Take this.
Here.
You want to open it?
Go ahead.
Let's see.
- What's the code? - It's your birthday.
That's more than the land is even worth.
And what is my debt, hmm?
Nothing.
That news broadcast. You know the one.
When I saw it,
I thought this was partially my fault.
Then I held your mother's picture and told her that she was responsible too.
We raised you without love.
And it was wrong.
Forgive me, please.
At least...
for your sake,
and my granddaughter's.
If you hang on till morning, I'll arrange safe passage for you both.
They'll take you to an island across the coast. Would you like that?
Sir?
Who's that?
Yes? The chauffeur.
Shut it.
Do you need something, sir?
Uh, no thanks. That'll be all for the evening.
As you wish, sir.
Okay, he left.
One, two, three.
Bambi?
Yes?
Stay right where I can see you.
Coming.
Bambi?
I know you don't want anything from me.
Let's say it's for the land.
The land, are you serious?
Stay tonight, and tomorrow I'll send you off in a boat.
Don't forget you have the police still after you.
We know how to handle them just fine.
Yes, of course, baby.
- How marvelous, you-- - Don't you dare take one more step.
I want to give my granddaughter a hug goodbye.
You have no privileges.
Fine.
Then take her.
But take good care of yourselves.
There's one more thing I have to do before I leave.
Follow me.
- Mom. Someone's coming. - Hello, yeah?
- Can you see who? - It's the chauffeur.
All right. I'm off work. I'll be right there.
No, he's not a chauffeur.
You're right, Mom.
I think he's a cop.
What kind of trap are we walking into?
Come with me.
Hey, there's a taxi.
No, baby, that truck's perfect. Let's try and catch it.
Hey!
Hey, where are you? Hey!
There a problem, sir?
Aren't you supposed to be a cop?
You're just totally clueless!
What's happened?
- They were both here just now! - They were?
Were they in the room when I came?
Forget about that.
I managed to give them an entire suitcase of marked bills so you can track them.
Now do your job and find them!
Get back inside. Lock all your doors.
- Sir, what's wrong? - They were with the old guy just now.
- What are you saying? - He gave them the bag with the money.
Turn the receiver on, now.
About half a mile ahead of us. They're on the move.
Sir, get in. Come on, come on.
All right, let's go.
- How close are we? - Very close, sir.
All right. Go, go.
- Sir, I think it's that vehicle. - Hurry up. We gotta stop them.
Right away, sir.
Get ahead of it. Go.
Stop, police!
Go, go.
Get out of the truck!
Open it, now!
Listen to me, Captain.
Don't you dare forget our deal.
The mother is yours, alive or dead,
but the girl is mine!
You will not harm a single hair on her head.
You'll deliver her to me unharmed.
I did everything you asked.
That means it's your turn.
Bring her to me, like you said that you would!
Promise me, okay?
You have to promise, no matter what happens,
if things get out of hand you'll get out of here.
Mom, can't we just leave now?
No, this has to end, Bambi.
He's obsessed with you. He'll have you over my dead body.
Just promise.
I promise. I won't come in, no matter what I hear.
Atta girl.
Would you look at this little witch?
You think I'm like those fools in the newspaper?
What do you take me for, huh?
What kind of man do you think I am?
Where's the girl?
You're gonna tell me.
Where's the girl?
Come here!
Come on!
Where is she? Tell me!
Why were you even born? Huh? Why? You're a waste!
I never wanted you.
Bambi.
The man was her father. They were family.
But when he said there was bad blood between 'em, I mean...
I just really...
Well, I... I thought I was selling a lot.
Regular business.
But God, a real murder?
I've never seen anything like that.
Just in the paper and the movies. How did I get into this trouble?
I mean, look at me, I'm soaked in blood.
Can I have some water, please?
Just gimme a glass of water to drink.
- Tell us what happened? - Huh?
Don't you think you should elaborate for us?
So, I went into the house,
and I went inside and it was dark.
And I called out to see if someone was there.
But I slipped and fell.
Next thing I know, I was covered in blood.
He had no eyes at all.
Give me your hands.
I never wanted this to happen.
I never wanted you to know that the world was such an evil place.
Give me the other one.
They're clean, Mommy. I'm all right.
Never do it again. You hear me?
Mine are dirty enough for the both of us.
I couldn't leave you like that in that room.
I've grown up.
You sure have.
Still, you shouldn't have come in.
You should've kept your hands clean.
Mommy, listen, it's the two of us now against them.
But I'm too tired, Bambi.
I think I'm just too tired.
Okay, sleep.
Get some sleep, Mom.
We really needed all that money.
But it was all marked bills.
I don't want you to worry, baby.
I'll make everything better.
Sleep well, Mommy.
I know what we have to do...
and how we'll find the money.
