Rescuing Annie

Aku dan kakak kembarku menikah dengan saudara kembar dari keluarga bermartabat pada waktu yang sama. Dia menikah dengan kakak laki-laki Leo, yang merupakan seorang hakim federal, sementara aku menikah dengan adik laki-lakinya Sam, yang merupakan seorang dokter bedah. Ketika aku dirawat di rumah sakit untuk melindungi janinku, aku malah diculik perampok dan ditahan untuk minta tebusan. Perampok menggunakan ponselku untuk menghubungi suamiku Sam. Tapi dalam 32 kali panggilan, semuanya ditolak. Akhirnya perampok itu sangat marah sehingga memukul perutku dengan tongkat bisbol untuk melampiaskan amarahnya. Aku mencoba melindungi bayi di dalam perutku, tetapi aku tetap kehilangan anakku. Perampok itu akhirnya menelepon Sam dan setelah panggilan tersambung, Sam berteriak, “Annie hampir keguguran, aku hanya menemaninya untuk pemeriksaan, bisakah kamu berhenti menelepon dan mencoba menarik perhatianku!” Perampok yang melihat bahwa mereka tidak bisa mendapatkan uang tebusan, mengikatku dan melemparku ke kolam renang untuk melampiaskan amarah mereka sebelum pergi. Ketika aku hampir mati, kakak datang untuk menyelamatkanku. Melihat aku yang keguguran dan hampir meninggal, dia buru-buru menelepon suaminya yang merupakan seorang hakim. Namun, yang didapat adalah pesan suara dingin, "Sedang membantu Annie menghukum pembunuh yang hampir menyebabkan kegugurannya, mohon jangan ganggu." Saat ingin menelepon polisi, ponsel kehabisan baterai. Kakak terpaksa mengendarai mobil dan membawaku pergi. Namun dalam perjalanan pulang, badai salju tiba-tiba melanda, terjadi tanah longsor dan mobil pun mogok. Akhirnya kami tidak dapat bergerak maju dan terjebak di dalam mobil serta menggigil kedinginan. Untungnya, patroli hutan menemukan kami tepat waktu, jadi aku dan kakak tidak mati kedinginan. Setelah tersadar di rumah sakit, reaksi pertamaku dan kakak adalah kami ingin bercerai bersama.
