Laura is a well-known photography artist, and the exposure of the scandal of the car accident in the river is not good for her career development. The two were about to hit and run, but the car couldn't start. The passing vehicle kindly helped to inquire. Laura was acting on the spot and hit Adrian with her own car. She was mediating and sent the driver away. Laura asked Adrian to dispose of the body, and found a way to find someone to repair the car on the side of the road. When it was getting late, Adrian pushed the body and the car into the lake and sank to the bottom of the lake. While waiting, Laura met Thomas, an old man who was eager to help. He happened to know car maintenance. He took the initiative to drive Laura and dragged the broken car back to his home. Thomas also had his wife at home, both of whom were actors in the troupe when they were young, and both were very warm-hearted. Before entering the door, the blood on Laura's hand caught their attention. When Thomas helped her repair the car, he found a man's golden lighter in the car. Thomas' wife invited her to stay for dinner, but Laura found that today The person who killed himself was the old couple's son Daniel. Laura wanted to find a chance to escape, and the old couple also became suspicious that their son had not returned home. Laura hid Daniel's phone in the crack of the sofa. The old couple thought that the son just forgot to bring his phone. Laura just wanted to leave quickly and the car started. At the same time, Thomas saw her adjusting the backrest of the car seat. After returning to the city with Adrian, the two tried to clear the evidence. Adrian took my car into the junkyard for disposal, and then took the initiative to report to the police station, falsely claiming that he had just returned from Paris and found that the car was stolen. . The two broke up and agreed to forget what happened and that they would not owe each other in the future. Adrian's career is thriving, his family is happy, and the car accident seems to sink to the bottom of the lake with the car. But soon after he saw news reports, the police began to search for Daniel's disappearance. Because of Thomas' testimony, the woman he met in the traffic accident on the day of his son's accident was a major suspect. The license plate showed the owner of the car as Adrian, so he was summoned to the police station. His pre-forged reasons for the theft of the car also came in handy, and then he found someone to falsify the Paris airfare and hotel records, temporarily dealing with the police. Laura took Daniel's wallet on the day of the crime and found that he was a bank clerk. Laura had worked in a bank before. He used Daniel's identity information to keep transferring money from bank and customer accounts, pretending to be Daniel The illusion of theft and misappropriation of public funds has changed the nature of disappearance cases into absconding in fear of crime. The old couple knew their son's character and were provoked by the incident, thinking that someone was behind it. Thomas disguised as a reporter to investigate the case behind the scenes after his son's accident. He quickly found Adrian. He had already mastered a lot of clues, and remembered the doubts he found during his contact with Laura that day, but he could not find Laura, only Being able to determine that the car was Adrian's, Thomas' analysis was completely consistent with their modus operandi. But Adrian denied it, Thomas was taken away by security, and he was never found again. Some time later, Adrian received an anonymous letter linking Laura's death to the dumping. In the letter was a photo of the lakeside where the crime was committed, and a voice-changed recording, asking for a hush money. Suspected by the passing driver, Adrian invited him and Laura to a hotel in order to extort a sum of money, and then killed Laura. After listening to his statement, Goodman immediately pointed out three loopholes, and Goodman provided him with a second version of his testimony. In this version, Thomas is the murderer who kills Laura and puts the blame on Adrian in order to avenge his son. Send a message to Adrian on Laura's cell phone, making the police think it was Adrian who killed her. Goodman pulled out a newspaper with a photo of Adrian being arrested at the hotel, which showed Daniel's mother, a hotel employee, helping Thomas out of the room. This set of testimony washed Adrian clean and had nothing to do with the murder case. Adrian applauded, but he was worried that the plaintiff driver only showed him at the crime scene. Goodman said that no one went to the judge and she made up the witnesses, in order to draw out Adrian's words, exert pressure and win trust. Adrian was very convinced. In order to prove that Laura was the murderer, Goodman asked him where he hid Daniel and the car, so that Laura's things could be put in as evidence of the corpse. Adrian had taken off his defenses, marked the location of the sinking car on the map, and put a pen in the breast pocket of his clothes. Adrian, who had received a perfect testimony, smoked a cigarette and explained the situation of the day one by one. Ten explained. Daniel was not dead at the time, and Adrian closed the car door and sank him to the bottom of the lake. Goodman called him a scumbag, but he quickly regained his calm and did his job as a lawyer. She told that the current confession is not perfect, and there is another version that makes sense. In the third version of the testimony, everything was dominated by Adrian. Laura was about to call the police but was stopped, and Adrian directly destroyed the body. She took away the wallet and forged and embezzled public funds and fled. Laura was overwhelmed with anxiety. She told Daniel's parents the truth on the phone. Came to the hotel and asked Daniel's parents to accept the apology. The two of them went to the police station to surrender, but Adrian refused, killed Laura, and arranged the murder scene, pretending to be the victim, but Daniel's parents received When Laura's text message arrived at the hotel and found Laura's death, she understood that Adrian was the murderer. After that, she followed Adrian and rented a house across from his company and residence to observe his every move and collect evidence. Adrian is not convinced, because there is already a second version of the perfect testimony, Daniel's mother at the hotel scene can help Thomas kill Laura, the evidence is the photo in the newspaper, I didn't expect this photo to be composite, the mirror in the mirror Reflection illustrates the problem. Daniel's mother took a day off in order to see Laura that day, and it was impossible to help open the door to assist in the murder. This fake photo was the perfect testimony of the second version that was directly defeated. Only the third version makes sense now, and Adrian also admits that Laura killed herself. Goodman was very satisfied, saying that he took a ten-minute halftime break and went out to breathe. Adrian is already very confident, and believes that with such a strong lawyer defense, he will definitely be able to get rid of the crime. But at this moment, the pen in the breast pocket suddenly burst and leaked, the ink soaked into his chest, and the reversal appeared. After Goodman left, he went to Thomas's room on the opposite building. Adrian took apart the pen and found the monitor, and suddenly realized. Adrian looked at the building opposite. Goodman stood in front of the window, removing the mask and wig from his face. His real identity was Daniel's mother, with Thomas standing behind him. The old couple planned this interrogation together. Through previous follow-up, they learned that Adrian had asked Goodman lawyer to meet tonight. Daniel's mother disguised as Goodman lawyer three hours in advance. He told the truth, and Thomas remotely monitored and recorded in the opposite building, a seamless reversal scene. The tense music is interrupted by the doorbell of Adrian's room. The real Goodman lawyer is only now coming. The voice of Thomas calling the police station overlaps with the voice of Goodman introducing himself. The film ends, the perfect ending. The film uses glass windows many times. It is shown in car windows, hotels, police stations, and Adrian's residence. The glass windows are also like mirrors. Eyes, waiting for the day when the truth is revealed. Daniel's mother wears a mask to pursue the truth for her son's death, and Adrian hides his heart in order to hide two murder cases. You and I are both invisible guests. The plot of the film is high-energy and reversed many times. It seems to be a repeated reasoning of the entire case. It also shows the conflicts between entrepreneurs and female lawyers tit for tat and vividly. The depiction of many details and the emotional fluctuation of the two promote the progress of the story, and the final reversal ending is just right. It is a wonderful suspense and reasoning movie.
