𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Where have u been, or should I even ask?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
I stopped by Rozonda to give her a gift.
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Your ability to leave me speechless is unparalleled.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
No one saw me, Tupac.
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Did she like it-- her present?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
I don't know, she never got to open it.
She was kissing some guy.
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
What?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Yeah.
I can't blame her, though.
I mean, I told her to go live her life, and that is what she did.
But I... I don't really want to talk about it.
Getting stood there in close my eyes trying to control myself
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Lisa?
Lisa, u all right?
Lisa, u all right?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Snaps out of it
I'm okay. Yeah, I'm okay.
It's nothing, I'm just tired.
It's been a long night.
AT MICHAEL'S PLACE
𝐃𝐮𝐝𝐞
Michael Walters?
𝐃𝐮𝐝𝐞
Marshal Chuck Gibson.
𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐮𝐜𝐤 𝐆𝐢𝐛𝐬𝐨𝐧
It's about Amy.
May I come in?
I believe I'll be able to answer all your questions.
𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥
Please do.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Hey, I got your call.
What happened here?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Neighbors called in a disturbance.
Signs of a violent struggle, originates in the living room.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Is this Michael's blood?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
It could be, they're testing it.
Looks like Michael put up quite a struggle.
Let's just hope he's alive when we find him.
𝐃𝐫𝐞
Okay, so, when I touched base with WITSEC last night, I wasn't actually talking to WITSEC.
My phone was wirelessly hijacked for 20 minutes, so when I called WITSEC to check Gibson's credentials, I was actually talking to somebody in Jersey.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
If u were rerouted, then where's the real Marshal Gibson?
𝐃𝐫𝐞
His body washed up on shore yesterday.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
So, who the hell was in your office?
𝐃𝐫𝐞
James Mason.
Wanted for the murder of Amy's-- aka Lily Carter's-- parents.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Amy is the only one who can I.D. Mason as the killer and put him away for life.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
So, why take Michael?
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Well, he assumes Michael is so close to her, he knows all her secrets, like where she'd go.
Mason will probably keep Michael alive until he finds Amy.
Question is, where is Amy's safe haven?
𝐃𝐫𝐞
Safe haven?
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Yeah, she lives her life on the run.
There must be some familiar place for her to fall back on when she gets scared.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Didn't Michael say they were going on a honeymoon in Rockland County?
Um, according to Amy's real file, she went to camp there in grade school.
𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭
Rockland County?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
What do u have?
𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭
When we tapped Michael's cell, there is a message from his credit card company saying some woman alerted them to a fraudulent charge.
It was made from a Rockland County gas station.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Amy was sending him a message.
When u can't call someone directly, u have to find another way to get to them.
Amy was trying to tell Michael where to find her.
𝐃𝐫𝐞
Okay, Rockland's 30 away, we can't lose any more time.
Let's get a full list of those hotels and split 'em up.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
All right.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Okay.
Leaves out
A FEW HOURS LATER
Tionne, I'm at the Belmont Hotel.
I think I have a possible match.
Unknown young woman in room six, so, get here fast.
Amy?
My name's Rozonda Thomas, NYPD.
I know you're scared, and I know about James Mason.
Please open the door.
I want to help u and Michael.
I think he's in trouble.
𝐀𝐦𝐲
Slowly open the door
Letting u in
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
walking on in
𝐀𝐦𝐲
Maybe this is hard to understand, but for years,
I was living with a secret identity, holed up in my apartment, just terrified that someone would come into my life.
And when Michael did, I got scared, and I tried pushing him away.
Does that sound silly?
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
No.
𝐀𝐦𝐲
I knew I shouldn't get involved with him, but I couldn't help myself.
I was drawn to him.
And then I moved in, and we got engaged, and I wanted that life so badly...
That I forgot I'll always be on the run.
When I saw our photo in the paper, I knew that I had to leave.
Leave him.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Maybe this time, Michael will run with u.
𝐀𝐦𝐲
He could never be himself again.
Not a doctor.
It's just too easy to track.
I could never ask someone to make that sacrifice for me.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You can't assume what's right for him.
