He send that photo to he family in Trinidad claiming how he get kidnap. He tell dem to send de picture to Exxon and tell dem how he get kidnap and how he got to get money.
Exxon send back to seh it don’t have money because it ain’t start drill yet and dem can do wha dem want wid him. Exxon seh he wouldn’t be de fuss man to dead waiting fuh money from dem.
De police trace de call and when dem get to de hotel, dem see de man throw back drinking a juice and watching Young and de Restless.
