Dispatcher Walter Garber (Denzel Washington) uses his extensive knowledge of the transit system in a bid to outwit the hijackers and save the hostages, but one question remains: even if the hijackers get their money, how can they possibly escape?

I'm disgusted.
You heard me -- I'm disgusted. Tony Scott has gone ahead and screwed up my summer, man! What has he done that is so awful, you ask?
