The news reports the Mexican president's doctor was kidnapped and eventually murdered in an attempt by political opponents to show he cannot even protect his own administration officials from the corruption of his police forces.

In the taxi Mitch finally tells Sam the whole truth about seeing her husband kiss his lover on the street as she drove by with the kids after picking them up from school, just before they are hit by a truck and the children are killed.

After Mitch tells the consul how she found the camera she is knocked out by an intruder at the hotel who steals it, and the Ambassador is suddenly very interested in what might be on the film, because the president's doctor was shot behind the same bar where Sam was last seen.

Within minutes the safe house is overrun by the Mexico City Police, the Ambassador and everyone else is killed except Mitch, hiding in a bathroom with the photos.

Mitch shoots the officer with the gun she took from the safe house before they can be executed; Pedro says not to worry about him, as he drops her near the border crossing.
