Due to feeling sick, Emilia had to stay home from school along with Leo who left early since he was feeling similar to the girl. The boy came walking down the stairs holding a tissue box when Donald questioned. "What are you doing here?"

"I live here." Leo stated the obvious making Emilia giggle before it turned into a coughing fit, making her glare at Leo. "I'm the one you didn't cobble together in your basement."

"I mean, why aren't you at school?" Donald asked, standing up from desk.

Leo walked towards him as he explained. "Got a little head cold. I sneezed in class, and I don't know what came out, but I walked out two pounds lighter."

"Donald, I think something's wrong with your credit card. When I went to buy groceries it was declined." Tasha informed him, walking into the room. Emilia got up from the couch and walked towards them as Donald questioned. "Declined? How could that be?"

"Let me spell it out for you." Eddy appeared on the screen. "She spent all your money!" Tasha looked at the screen in annoyance. "I did not spend all his money." She defended.

"Oh, saving a little for a facelift?" Eddy asked, making both Emilia and Leo stop Tasha from getting closer to Eddy as she had a look of anger on her face. "This card is completely maxed out with purchases I didn't make. A plane ticket, a speedboat, two thousand dollars worth of hair dye and color contact lenses." Donald explained, after clicking into his computer. The three raised their brows at him, making him raise his arms in the air as he defended. "This time it was not me!"

In the lab, Emilia and Leo were searching the computers while Donald kept sighing every time he was locked out of the cyberdesk. He looked towards the two teens. "Guys, any luck tracing those hackers?" He questioned.

"No. Every IP address you gave us leads to a dead end." Leo explained, with Emilia nodding along as she chimed in. "These people really covered their tracks."

Eddy appeared on the screen. "I don't have any fingerprints or evidence, but I've drawn a police sketch of what I think the suspect looks like." He said before showing a picture of Tasha.

"Eddy!" Emilia scolded, before looking back at Donald who sighed. "I can't access anything. All the contents of my cyberdesk have been wiped clean." He said, brushing his hands against the desk. An alarm beeped on his tablet making him sigh once again. "This is worse than I thought. Every one of my facilities worldwide has been hacked. Every database- the entire infrastructure of Davenport Industries is gone!"
