Shane : What?!
Abigail : ....
Shane : What did they tell you?
Abigail : They want me to drop a lawsuit.
Shane : Against who?
Abigail : Roger Vazquez.

Shane
What the fuck?

Shane : What's it about?
Abigail : A divorce and custody of his child.
Shane : Drop it.
Abigail : What? No!
Shane : You don't know how dangerous he is! It's not worth the risk! Tell your client to get another lawyer!
Abigail : And put that other lawyer at risk? No Shane!
Shane : But it's you at risk!!
Abigail : I'm going to the police.
Shane : No! Abs, he's going to kill your parents once he sees the police.
Abigail : Then what am I supposed to do?
Shane : Give me a second.

Shawn : Shane? Why this late?
Shane : What the fuck is Roger up to?
Shawn : What do you mean?
Shane : He sent someone to kidnap Abigail's parents. Do you know anything about that?
Shawn : No but I'm assuming he sent his right hand. I haven't seen him all day.
Shane : Bet! I'll take it from here.
Shawn : Careful Shane.
Shane : Don't worry. -ends call-

Abigail : How do you know Roger?
Shane : He's.......my brother in law.
Abigail : Oh.

Shane
I went into my room for my laptop and came back to the living room. Now we hack into the cameras and look for that motherfucker.

Abigail : What are you doing?
Shane : I'm hacking into the cameras to look for the guy. I know what he looks like. It shouldn't be too hard to find him.
Abigail : How are you hacking into the cameras?
Shane : Technology babe.
Abigail : You always had a thing for technology.
Shane : It's my strength.

Abigail
I went over and sat next to him. I'm curious to see how he's doing things.

Abigail : Do you want coffee?
Shane : No it's fine. Thanks though.
Abigail : What's your plan?
Shane : Find him.
Abigail : And then?
Shane : Get your parents.
Abigail : Alone?
Shane : I'm sure he's alone. This isn't their territory. They can't have much of their people here.
Abigail : But Shane you can't be seen! You'll only put yourself at risk.
Shane : Nah don't worry. I'll wear a disguise. I'm well trained for these things.
Abigail : You don't have to do this....
Shane : I want to.
Abigail : No Shane, I don't want something to happen to you.
Shane : Don't worry about me. I promise you I'll get your parents back.
Abigail : But-
Shane : I found his location.

Abigail
He closed his laptop and went into his room. He came back wearing full black.

Shane : I'll put on a hat, shades, and a mask to cover my face. He won't know it's me.
Abigail : I'll go with you.
Shane : No are you crazy?!
Abigail : But what if something happens to you?
Shane : I'll be fine. Trust me yeah?
Abigail : ...

Shane
The fact she worries about me makes me happy because she still cares about me.

Abigail
I let out a sigh and hugged him.
Despite the time that has passed, I care about him deeply...

Abigail : Promise you'll come back.
Shane : I promise....

Shane
I pulled away and cupped her face to place a soft kiss on her forehead.

Shane : Can I use your car?
Abigail : Of course. The keys are on the table.
Shane : Alright

Shane
I grabbed her keys and my laptop and  walked out.
