"Welcome to the Montecito!" Sam exclaimed as guests began to pour into the hotel. "Danny, what are we supposed to be doing?" she asked quietly.
"You are supposed to be greeting the guests, while I'm supposed to be looking for some crazy lunatic Ed's been worried about!"
"You must feel so important!" Sam smirked.
"Just shut up and do what you're told."
"Ooh I like a man who's in charge!" Sam cooed.
"Sam!" Danny barked.
"Alright, alright, I was just kidding don't get your jock strap in a bundle!"
Danny gave her a look and Sam turned back around to face the guests.
"Welcome to the Montecito!" she chirped.
"Wait, Sam I see him!" Danny muttered.
"Who?" Sam replied.
"The guy Ed's been looking for!"
"Oh, the lunatic!" Sam whispered.
"Yeah!" Danny answered giving her another look.
"Well, call Ed!" Sam advised.
"Alright, stay here and if he tries to go anywhere stop him!" Danny mumbled as he went to the front desk.
"Oh, shit where's he going?" Sam wondered aloud.
The guy Danny had told her to keep her eye on was walking towards the elevator. She quickly followed him.
"Excuse me, but have you already checked in?" Sam asked the man.
"Uh yeah!" the man replied.
"Well, would you mind coming with me and double checking." Sam asked.
"Why would I need to do that?" the man asked shortly.
"It's just a procedure." Sam replied calmly.
"Fine, lady's first!" he replied motioning to Sam.
Sam smiled nervously and walked ahead of him. Before she knew it he grabbed her from behind and was holding a knife to her throat.
"Oh my god!" Sam screamed.
"Not one more word!" the man screamed back.
He started pulling her towards the elevator as some of the hotel guests looked on in horror.
Danny heard a scream that sounded like Sam. He saw a congregation near the elevator. He looked to the front door and saw that Sam wasn't there. He quickly put down the phone, through which Ed was now yelling, and ran towards the elevator.
"Please just let me go! Please I'm begging you!" Sam pleaded.
"Sam!" Danny yelled, as he got closer to the elevator. "Hey get out the way!" He shouted at several guests who were blocking his path.
He finally found his way to Sam. He saw the man that Ed had told him to keep an eye out for holding a knife against Sam's neck.
"Alright, look just let her go! Anything you want, just don't hurt her or you'll regret it!" Danny said to the man.
"Anything I want, huh? Alright, well the first thing I want is to talk in private away from all these people, let's go to the roof!"
"What, no... look I can get these people to leave but we're not going to the roof!" Danny replied calmly.
"Oh yeah you wanna try me!" the man shouted loudly, edging the knife closer to Sam's neck.
"Danny please, just do what he says!" Sam screamed.
"Alright, fine! But if you hurt her..."
"Just follow me!" the man barked.
He dragged Sam into the elevator as Danny followed slowly. The man pushed a button and the elevator door closed in on its self.
