But just as they discuss their next move, a shocking intrusion occurs. Isaac, along with Bobby and Michael, forcefully breaks into the apartment and assaults Danny. The group's phones suddenly buzz with Amber Alerts, notifying them of a missing Asian girl accompanied by a husky dog. Isaac's eyes light up when he spots June and Luca, seeing an opportunity for extortion. He calls Amy, demanding a ransom of 500k in cash. Amy, panicked, pleads for time, but Isaac is unrelenting.

In a moment of desperation, Amy reveals Jordana's valuable artefact collection to Isaac, describing it as worth millions and disclosing Jordana's address. Amy pleads with Isaac to place June safely in her car outside and promises not to call the police. The trio heads to Jordana's house, leaving Danny and Paul tied up, while June seems oblivious to the danger, enjoying her moment of freedom.

Amy pleads with George to keep the police out of the situation, fearing for June's safety. George, bewildered and uncertain, reluctantly agrees to Amy's plan. As the doorbell rings, Isaac and Michael appear, their faces masked. They quickly restrain the three women and demand expensive items worth over 10k. Jordana, with a sneer, retorts that everything in the house is worth far more than that.

Meanwhile, in the van, Paul manages to free himself, suffocating Bobby while Danny distracts June with a rhyming game. They successfully place June and Luca in the car outside but are intercepted by Michael. He brings them back inside and places them with the women. Isaac orders Michael to move them to the courtyard, forcing Amy to falsely blame them for the robbery.

As they're being escorted outside, Naomi and Jordana make a dash for the panic room. Michael throws the Tamago at Jordana to slow her down, but Naomi manages to get ahead. Fearing that Michael will catch up and Jordana won't make it, Naomi prematurely slams the door shut. Jordana, caught in the doorway, is brutally crushed as the door, lacking a safety feature, viciously slices her body in half before closing. Jordana's lifeless body lies on the spot, a tragic end to her life.

As the door shuts with a final click, a dense cloud of gas fills the house, obscuring everyone's vision in a hazy blur. Isaac seizes Amy at gunpoint, ordering her to call the police and pin the blame on the brothers. Reluctantly, Amy complies with his demand.

Meanwhile, Danny hoists Paul over the boundary, and he manages to scramble to the top, but his grip on Danny's hand slips. Just as the police sirens echo in the distance, Danny frantically urges Paul to flee, but Paul stubbornly refuses.

Desperate to shake him off, Danny reveals the truth about discarding Paul's college applications and the house. The revelation shatters Paul's heart, and in a moment of despair, he leaps over the edge. Suddenly, a policeman stumbles upon the scene, and Danny hears the deafening crack of gunfire. Paul fails to respond to Danny's frantic calls, signaling that he has been fatally shot.

The police swarm the house, and the tense situation finally comes to a resolution. Amy, horrified, learns that George has abducted June and turned off his phone, leaving them in the dark. Amidst the chaos, Danny manages to slip away through a sewer pipe, emerging into the night air. He spies a nearby vehicle and makes a dash for it.

Amy, tears streaming down her face, reads an email from George's lawyer, informing her that he has been granted temporary custody of June. Her gaze snaps up as she spots Danny parking his vehicle beside her. With a disdainful flick of his middle finger, he mocks her, and the two embark on another furious chase.

But this time, as Amy swerves dangerously to shove Danny off the road, both their vehicles veer off the cliff, plummeting towards the abyss. The camera pans out, revealing a crow perched on a nearby branch, watching the drama unfold. Could it be the same crow that Danny once nursed back to health after it was injured? The image leaves a haunting impression, echoing the tragic events that have unfolded.
