You don't wanna do this. Because if Richard doesn't hear from me soon with the agreed upon phrase, you might as well kiss goodbye to that little girl. 

Eli doesn't know squat! Richard's the one behind this whole thing. He screwed us then, he's screwing us now. We went in for the hijack, and he kept all the money. He betrayed us. Now he's setting us up again. 

Listen, I don't know diddly. I had no idea Eli was gonna go after that girl. Not even after Richard, much less his kid.  much less his kid. Cut me lose, I'll lead you to him. Please let me make this right.
