Storyline
Two men wake up at opposite sides of a dirty, disused bathroom, chained by their ankles to pipes. Between them lies a dead man loosely clutching a hand-held tape player and a handgun. Each finds a tape the perfect fit for the player in their back pocket. They play the tapes. One is threatened, the other isn't. But they have a task: One must kill the other by 6:00, or his wife and daughter will die. They find hacksaws in a toilet, and try to cut the chains, but it doesn't work. They are the two newest victims of the Jigsaw Killer. In a flashback, we learn of Amanda, a girl who falls victim to the Jigsaw Killer. On her head is a mask, which is hooked into her lower jaw. There is a timer on it. Only one key will unlock it, and that key is in the digestive tract of her cell mate who lies paralyzed on the opposite side of the room. If she doesn't unlock the mask in time, her lower jaw will be ripped wide open... Written by Aurabesh corrected by Paul P

Trivia
The surveillance camera footage of Adam and Dr. Gordon was shot separately and spliced together during post production, which is the reason for the strange angle of the two characters in the footage. See more »Goofs
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: When Tapp and his partner go after the Jigsaw Killer on their own, they do not take a SWAT team or uniformed officers because they have no warrant, and it is thus an illegal search which the police would not provide support for. See more »Quotes
