Larry was on his computer, accessing the drive, and shutting down the power grid in Lisbon, Portugal. Once he finished, he emailed Elijah about his possession of the drive and that he was on his way to deliver it to him. He shut his computer, getting up and packing his things away, including the drive. 

Larry heard a thud when he turned the light off, on his desk, he stopped in his tracks, pulling his gun and pointing in the direction of the noise. He heard another sound behind him. As he turned, a woman quickly held his gun, karate-chopping him in the ribs before hitting his back. She held the hand he had on her shoulder, elbowing it, and kicking him back. Larry fell to the floor, groaning, but before he got up, the woman stepped to him, pointing his gun at him, "I'm not here for you," She said, pulling the trigger. 

Parker was walking up the stairs of the building Larry was in when she heard the gunshot. She ran up the stairs, seeing a woman in all black reaching for the drive, Parker picked up the closest thing she got, a paperweight, and threw it at her, making the lady wince as she stepped back. She pointed the gun at Parker, firing.

Parker quickly ducked, hiding behind the table at the door as the woman finished the magazine. 

"There's no more bullets!" Parker yelled, hearing just the click of the trigger. 

"I know," The other woman sighed, "Shàngchuán jiǎnjí"(Upload the clip) She said, walking to Parker.

"Is that a threat?" Parker got up, facing the Chinese woman. 

"Look, I'm not here for you," She said.

"How rude?" Parker held her chest, acting offended. "And here I thought you were,"

The woman tried to pick up the drive again, "Uh ah!" Parker yelled, throwing a little pebble at her fingers. The woman groaned, shaking her hand.

Parker ran to her, kicking her away. "Oh no, you don't," She said, blocking her hits and kneeing her ribs again. Parker spun around to the drive, but Larry's motionless body caught her attention. Using this to her advantage, the woman slammed Parker's head into the table, breaking the table. 

"Shit!" Parker yelped, falling back and holding her head. The woman took the drive from Larry's bag. 

"Marks? Marks!" Parker slid to him, checking his pulse first, "Larry!" She cried as the woman took the drive. She picked up her badge and gun, walking out of the room.

Parker ran after her, into the dark streets of Rabat, but as soon they turned the corner she lost her into the sea of people. "Fuck!" She yelled, making a mother, who was walking with her son across from Parker gives her a stank eye, covering her child's ears. "Sorry," She apologized, limping back to the building. 

Parker noticed Mace and her team rushing out of the building, she saw a bunch of black cars in front of it. She stayed back, watching them disappear into an alley, and followed them. Parker stayed at the end of the tunnel, her head spinning and her ribs aching. 

She listened to Marie talk to someone while Khadijah and Mace were taking nameplates off of cars. 

"Forty seconds," She heard Marie say. Marie continues to speak on the phone, before ending the call, taking out the sim and smashing the phone with her foot as Mace called her. 

"Are you under control?" Mace stopped her. 

"Are you?" She asked back.

"No," Mace answered.

"Someone should ask me that," Parker sighed. "Parker Jones, are you under control?" She asked herself, seeing she had no one else left to ask her. Nick was gone, and now Larry was dead, so Parker was back to being alone.
