The millionaire tries to hold Ben captive to use him as a perpetual blood bank.

Brother's Keeper

Ben has located a man named Jason Richards who once lived in an orphanage. Ben may have found his brother, but before he can introduce himself Fletcher shows up. Because he has researched Jason and knows about his money problems, the first thing Fletcher offers is $20,000 in exchange for a six-month stint at the National Research Institute. Jason, concerned about Ben's actions (forcing his way into his house, taking his car to escape from Fletcher), quickly agrees. He has a change of heart when he gets a taste of life at the National Research Institute: locked doors, no outgoing phone calls, and men who strong-arm him if he persists in his requests. Ben helps Jason and his wife escape. Ben and Jason seek refuge at a remote fishing camp where they can talk about a past that Jason cannot remember because of a head injury, and about the prospects of the blood that they might both share. When Fletcher shows up holding Jason's wife captive, Ben must try to talk Jason out of surrender
