They together have a daughter, Cassie, whose custody is with Pam for the time being, till they are officially divorced. One day, a notorious criminal, Richard (Ving Rhames), kidnaps Cassie and calls 911 only to connect with Pam, whom he wants to send her estranged husband, Jeremy, to certain locations, where he can be killed. Richard doesn't allow Pam to hang up the call and answer other incoming emergency calls, leading to a physical conflict with an office coworker.
