Watch the movie Ransom, ten times.

Tell me the plot.

[John Jamieson]

"Tom marches into a television station. As the television cameras pan across the two million dollars in bundled in neat little stacks, he tells the audience that the kidnapper will never see this ransom, because it is now the bounty on the kidnapper's head-- an unexpected reversal that is indicative of the intelligent plotting of this movie."

Everytime the kidnapper asks for money Tom doubles the bounty.

Tom gets his son back.
