Zach was cleaning the last blood off his lips and cheek, before he grabbed his beanie and walked out of the bathroom to hear Luther and Diego.

"Um...Do you know about Mom?" Luther asked "Well, it looks like you got what you wanted, one way or another, right?" Diego said "Wanna tell me what you're doing here?" Luther asked "Looking for Five" Diego said "Let me guess, you're gonna save the day" Luther said "It's what I do. Asshole" Diego said "Really? Last I checked, you mopped floors" Luther said "And what do you do? Sit on the moon for four years waiting for orders?" Diego said "Boys. This won't help us find Five" Pogo said "Keep on being a loyal soldier after everything our father did to you" Diego said "What? You mean save my life?" Luther said "No, I mean...turn you into a monster" Diego said as he leaned his shoulder against the closet.

Luther clenched his fist before he punched a hole in the closet "Can't hide it anymore, champ" Diego said "He had a difficult decision to make, and he made it" Luther said "Grow up, Luther. We're not 13 anymore" Diego said "That's what leaders do, by the way" Luther said "He sent you on that mission all alone. Almost got you killed" Diego said "Yeah, well at least he was there. Where were you? You and everyone else in this family? You walked out" Luther said "And thank Christ that I did, or I would have ended up just like you. Let me ask you a question. When you watch one of these nature shows..." Diego said "Diego, please" Pogo said "Does it turn you on?" Diego asked "So what? Is he just an animal to you, too, now, Diego, huh?" Luther asked "Don't" Diego said.

"Enough!" Pogo shouted at them "This house was attacked. We barely got out with our lives. And Grace...she wasn't so lucky. Your brother is missing and this is how you rise to the occasion. Take your nonsense elsewhere. Now" Pogo said "Sorry, Pogo" Diego said "Yeah, sorry, Pogo" Luther said before they both walked out of the room to see Zach "We are gonna find your parents, you wanna go?" Luther asked "Well, you might as well need me, beside I did say I will be right back and you two also need protection" Zach said before the three left.

Natasha and Five was looking at a building waiting for Lance.

"There he is" Natasha said, pointing at Lance that was walking towards his car, holding his dog.

"Ready?" Five asked "Always" she said and he grabbed her hand before blinking away.

Lance unlock his car and he put his dog on the backseat before he went to the driver seat.

Five blinked Natasha to the back seat before he blinked to the seat next to Lance just as he closed the door.

"Oh, Jesus!" Lance said when he saw Five sitting next to him and Natasha leaned forward before she put her dagger's edge right on the middle of the back of Lance's neck while Five clicked his switchblade open before he grabbed Lance's collar, putting his face close to Lance's as he put the switchblade by his throat.
