Transcription

[Daniel]

I just came to get a drink. I have to call the others.


[Grace]

No you don't. No. You could help me. Please.


[Daniel]

This doesn't end well for you. I just don't want to be the one to serve you up.


[Grace]

Daniel, I'm begging you.


[Daniel]

I'm really sorry about all this. It's true what they say. The rich really are different. I'll give you a 10 second head start.


[Grace]

Daniel...


[Daniel]

One one-thousand... Two one-thousand... Two and a half one-thousand...


She's in the study!

Clip Contexte

Grace has just married Alex. After the wedding, it is tradition for the family to play a game. They are playing hide and seek, and everyone is searching for Grace. The only problem? If they find her, they will kill her.


Note:

While Daniel is counting, he says "one-thousand" in between each number. This is a common thing to do in The US when you want to count with "accurate" timing.
