Abandoned
Plot
A woman brings her boyfriend to the hospital for outpatient surgery, and fights for answers after he seemingly vanishes into thin air. When Mary (Brittany Murphy) dropped Kevin (Dean Cain) off at the hospital, doctors told her that he'd be ready for discharge in just a few short hours. Later, she returns to pick him up, only to be told that no patient with that name was ever registered at the hospital. Frantic, Mary turns to the police, who merely patronize her after discovering that she has a history of mental illness. As Mary's search intensifies, she discovers that Kevin's disappearance may be part of an elaborate cover-up involving the hospital staff, and that her "missing" boyfriend may have been in on the ruse all along. ~ Jason Buchanan, RoviCast

Synopsis
Mary Walsh (Murphy) delivers her boyfriend, Kevin Peterson (Cain), to a hospital for routine outpatient surgery. A nurse tells her the surgery will be exactly one hour. When she returns to take him home, he has mysteriously disappeared. An administrator (Rogers) can find no record of Kevin, and a police search turns up nothing. Increasingly frantic, Mary is taken to staff psychiatrist Dr. Bensley (Peter Bogdanovich), who pronounces her unstable. Now she must not only find her missing boyfriend, but prove her sanity as well.
When an older man informs Mary that he knows Kevin’s whereabouts and demands a $10 million ransom, she has one hour to comply ... and her boyfriend’s life hangs in the balance. Forced to embezzle the money from the bank where she works, Mary soon discovers the shocking truth behind the disappearance. Now time is running out and she must take matters into her own hands to save herself.[2]
