Sarah and Jordyn jog down a street. Sarah leads them towards a house, "We can hide in here."

"You sure this place is empty?" Jordyn asks looking around.

Sarah bends down to do the code thing, "Yeah, it's Rose's listing. Zero, two, one, five. My dad's birthday."

As the two are about to get in they hear police talking behind them, "Let's check this street. They can't be far."

"Shit. Come on. Go." Jordyn says rushing them inside.

"Nothin' here. Check the porch. I got this one. You go check next door." The police can be heard yelling to each other from the outside.

More conversation is heard as a light is shown through the window in the door, "Okay, will do. I'll go around back. All right... He's probably headed over to the cut."

"Let's go. Come on. Let's go upstairs." Jordyn says leading them upstairs.

Sarah looks out the window and sees Rafe and Kelce, "Hurry up! This way!"

"I can't believe that's my brother." Sarah says looking at the boys.

The two fall back onto the bed and Sarah shines her light up at the ceiling. Jordyn looks up, "Wow."

Sarah asks the girl, "Sweet, right?"

"Yeah. Hey, did you know the, uh...the bottom two stars in the Little Dipper point to the North..." Jordyn says leaning over.

"The North Star?" Sarah finishes then looks at her girlfriend, . "Yeah. That's the center point. What everything else spins around."

Someone's voice is heard from outside, and Jordyn shoots up gasping. Sarah lays the girl back down with her, "Sh, sh, sh. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. I've got you."

"Could you remind me of the happy ending?" Jordyn asks trying to calm her breathing.

Sarah nods rubbing the girl's head, "Yeah. We're gonna meet the crew at the dock tomorrow. Then they're gonna have the getaway boat. "

"Then we go to Mexico." Jordyn adds.

"Yeah. And you're gonna be a surfing instructor." Sarah makes up their lives.

Jordyn lets out a breath, "You're damn right."

"And I'm gonna have a sandwich shop. And we're gonna have a house on a beach... and a dog and a boat. We'll remake the Pogue. And everything's gonna be okay." Sarah explains and notices the taller girl asleep, so she just lays her head back down on her chest.

Jordyn wakes up in the bed because of the sunlight pouring in. She turns her head expecting to see her girlfriend there but shoots up when she doesn't. She notices a note on the wall saying

Only the truth can save us now. Don't move till I get back - Val <3

Jordyn gets up and heads to peak out the window where right away she sees a cop patrolling the waters. She drops down and looks at the note in her hand debating on what to do.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jordyn is still in the house and right now she's pacing because Sarah hasn't returned. She looks out the window as she hears sirens and watches a car go by, "Shit."

Footsteps and the sound of a door opening and closing is heard making Jordyn internally panic. She looks over the edge but sees her girlfriend's figure walk in.
