[1] Phillippe and Lefevre play an American couple who travel to Puerto Rico to adopt an orphan (Briana Roy), and become entangled in a deadly scam.

They begin their search and contact a police officer (Luis Guzmán) who tells them that their adoption documents are not recorded, while the IRA's headquarters in Old San Juan has been deserted.

The officer then suggests that the IRA is a confidence schemer which offers orphans to unsuspecting couples in exchange for a hefty sum of money, only to take them away just a few days afterward.

Holding Nina, they force the couple to send their entire savings, which are largely compensation for the car accident that left them unable to conceive.

The three are escorted back by the officer, but he is killed by Benjamin who, having survived his crash, knocks Steven unconscious before taking them to Reigert's villa.
