catherine was furious as soon as she tore off the beard, it wasn't mortimer at all but his stupid friend Rupert! She knew something was wrong when Mortimer didn't remember her at all, then she remembered everything from college, it had to be Rupert Winchester, she just had to get him alone to talk to him.
And it worked like a charm because she saw him talking to a watch, it was Rupert Winchester! And he was spying on them!
She knew the only way to protect dreamlife was to stop him, she couldn't let Rupert get out of the dome.
catherine: tell me the truth right now!
rupert: i am Mortimer! You're just hallucinating right now!
catherine:'slaps him'shut up! You're not mortimer!
then she rips the beard off and slaps rupert again, the elderly man stares at her in shock and horror, his face turns red due to being slapped by her.
catherine: i'm going to make sure you don't come out of this place alive! I work too hard to get here and I'm not going to let someone like you destroy my life!
she tried to grab a can but rupert started to run, catherine runs after him.
catherine: get back here! I know you can't run forever!
rupert:'running as fast as he could, he made it outside and was running, everything looked like a maze'
catherine: you can run but you can't hide! I'll find you and I will kill you! You'll regret the day you decided to come here as a spy to destroy us! Mark my words Rupert Winchester! I will find you and kill you myself! You won't be able to escape! I will hunt you down like to pray you are! oh yes, That sounds very nice!
rupert: leave me-
then he trips and falls down, hitting his head.
rupert: ugh......
his vision was slowly becoming darker and darker, He felt blood coming out of his head, a small puddle of it was dripping to the ground.
catherine: huh, i guess my job here is done, that was way easier than I saw and that way I don't get charged for murder, it seems like I have luck on my side.
she walks away, she didn't even check his pulse at all, but he would be dead one way or another, he looked like he had hit his head and died.
If only she knew that Rupert was actually alive and he was just unconscious at the moment, but the blood did seem like he was dead.
meanwhile, jones and lazara were looking around.
jones: rupert, Where are you?! Come on rupert! Please answer us! We're starting to get worried about you!
lazara: rupert is probably hiding at the moment, he sounded scared on the call, but we still need to be careful as well.
edward: lazara, look.
lazara looks forward and gasps.
jones: what's wrong lazara?
he looks forward and gasps seeing rupert, blood dripped down.
jones: rupert! Please wake up! Please tell me you're not dead because you can't be dead! There's no way this is actually happening! Please wake up Rupert! Please wake up and show us that you're still alive!
lazara: he's still breathing Jones, It means he's still alive but we need to act fast! Call the others while I start to treat rupert's injuries.
jones: I'll call them as fast as possible, We need to make sure no one else goes into this area, We need to make sure that Rupert is okay.
lazara: And he is going to be okay because we're here.
jones: But what happened to him?
lazara: I'm guessing he was caught and he ran, We need to take him to the hospital to make sure he's okay, We can't risk endangering his life.
jones: Is it because kasim would kill us.
lazara: Well that is the main reason but it's also because Rupert is our friend, And we aren't going to leave him behind.
jones:'feels rupert neck for a pulse'lazara, he still has a pulse! It's not too late to save him! we need to get him help! do you have any bandages with you?
lazara: yes, it will stop the bleeding for a bit, but the cuts will need to be disinfected so it doesn't get worse.
they started bandaging the wound, they were careful and saw a medical team, they put Rupert on a stretcher and took him away.
jones: i hope he's going to be okay, that head wound did not look pretty, i'm worried that he won't make it.
lazara: He is going to make it and we are not going to stop believing in him, We just need to think more positive, I know it's hard to do that right now but we have to do it for Rupert, He wouldn't want us like this at all, He would want us solving this case and protecting everyone, He wanted to do this and we are going to let his efforts go to waste.
jones: You're right, If we keep standing around like this, This isn't going to help us at all or Rupert.
lazara: And there's also a good chance that his attacker might find out about this and come back to kill him, He's unconscious at the moment but he's still at risk, so-
kasim: Where is he?! Where is the love of my life?!
lazara: He's going to the hospital, He must have fallen and hit his head, But I promise that he's going to be okay.
kasim: i'm going to figure out who did this to him and they are going to die.
jones: i'm not sure Nathan would appreciate his dad going to jail.
kasim: don't worry about it.
jones: well.....anyway, we need to investigate, so go to the hospital to inform us about rupert, and don't attack anyone, ok kasim?
kasim: fine......
then he hugs lazara.
kasim: please find out who did this to him.
lazara: i promise i will, but you need the promise me that you won't do anything stupid while I'm investigating.
kasim: ok, i would do anything just be able to see Rupert, he would be so disappointed in me if I got myself in trouble because of him.
jones: if he wakes up, tell us and we'll visit him as soon as we can.
kasim: ok.
he walks away and touches the ring on his finger, he and rupert were going to get married soon.....but would every be ok in the end?
