A panicked stranger calls your phone. Your child has been kidnapped. The stranger explains that their child has also been kidnapped, by a completely different stranger. The only way to get your child back is to pay a ransom and kidnap another child--within 24 hours. Your child will be released only when the next victim's parents kidnap yet another child.
