Synopsis: Ex-FBI agent Frank LaCrosse (Dennis Quaid) is on the trail of a serial killer who kidnapped his son.

Kitty Cameo: At the beginning of the film a babysitter named Missy (Claudia Stedelin) is seen sitting with the boy. She hears a noise and investigates. In true spring-loaded cat fashion a ginger tabby cat jumps out of nowhere and runs across the room to a bowl of food. Missy breathes a sigh of relief just before she is grabbed by a hand.
