She's likepy aware his father is dead, can see porter in a car outside if the guy tried to hurt her the dog would attack him so its a jerkass move.

She doesn't want him to get cold.

Really unless I missed something he still has a home he can go to.

He's no further value to them, he wont be able to go to the bathroom, won't be able to sleep if he does not easily, and could be there for over 12 hours before someone finally enters the room. Even then they will need to go somewhere to get a key.

Maybe they wanted him kept quiet until they got some distance away. Seems pretty obvious to me. Besides the kid was a bit of a d-bag. Very minor issue.

I hope they had enough sense to take his car-keys, & exchange the messed-up limo for his new Ferrari.

Time to get away. He'll report this the moment he's free so this gives some separation time.

You're not a true movie fan, you apparently don't try to appreciate them unless you don't have to think about anything while watching them. You assume what she knows about the son's dad, and it doesn't occur to you that if the son's set free he will immediately go to the police to identify her and Porter. Besides, the son is no sympathetic character, so why release the little bastard?

There's still many people in the organization that are likely to try to find and kill her and Porter even as the top men in the group are dead. She needs to buy time to get out of town.
