Karla stops at the police station to report the incident; however, on seeing posters of young children who have been missing for a decade, and fearing that her son will likewise disappear for good, she continues the chase on her own.

Karla eventually finds the abductor - who has now stolen a black Volvo - and chases him until she finally runs out of fuel. Karla quickly stops a truck to hitch a ride to follow the abductor, but the truck is suddenly hit by the returning abductors' car, killing the driver and knocking her unconscious. Upon recovering, she finds that her son's not in the Volvo. The male abductor emerges from his car and begins to shoot at her with a sawed-off shotgun. He tries to attack her in her car and she releases the brake, causing the car to reverse into the woods with the abductor clinging to it being fatally struck by tree branches.

Karla yells at the man demanding to know where her son is, but he dies before she can get the answer.
