Thanks for the link.. Doesn't really answer my question, but I'll use two quotes from it to target the portions of the movie I am confused about:

Quote:
Back at the original monitor room Kerry watches the timer run out. A safe opens inside the room. Kerry looks inside to find Daniel on oxygen and alive. Remember John had said if Mathews talked to him long enough he'd find Daniel in a “safe and secure place”. If only Mathews had listened…
Ok, so he is in the safe inside Jigsaw's place the whole time..

Then how is this possible:

Quote:
Daniel Matthews and Amanda escape through a hidden door located in the floor of the room the victims originally awoke in, after noticing the blood from Xavier's first victim outlining it. Being chased by Xavier through some hallways, they wind up in the bathroom from the original Saw movie, which houses both Adam's still-chained corpse and the corpse of Dr. Gordon. Daniel kills Xavier with one of the old saw blades.
I assume this is still included in the "previously video taped" footage (which must have included hundreds of cameras placed throughout the house and basement, not to mention an expert job of video editing, equipment included), and Daniel was taken back to Jigsaw's place after he killed Xavier.. But I find it hard to believe that the assumption that Daniel would survive long enough to be taken back to Jigsaw's place alive was made. Even if Daniel wasn't poisoned in the "filmed portion," he still was at a high risk of death due to both Xavier being a psycho asshole, and his father being the known cop that falsely convicted everyone else in the house.

Me typing all that out doesn't make it any more believable to me, if in fact that is what the director/writer intended the explanation to be. Suspension of disbelief only can be stretched so thin, and in this case the cord snapped well before the movie's close.
