About a week ago:

    
After dropping off Aaliyah, James lights a cigarette and drives from Eichen House and takes a still unconscious Tommy to a secret hide-out. An underground bunker where Reese waited. He drags Tommy out of the car and through the tunnel to the bunker, he then helps Reese tie him to the chair she set up in the middle of the room.

Once they were done Reese stood up straight and looked at James. "And my daughter?"

James takes the cigarette from his lips and blows out smoke before answering. "She's there." James spoke with a thick greek accent. He crouched down and put the cigarette back in his lips as he takes the weapons off of Tommy. "Should get the information from her by tonight then we can start looking." He dismantles a gun from Tommy's ankle. "What were they called? ...uh, Fóvos giatrós? It's uhhh..." He pauses from dealing with the weapons as he tries to translate.

"Yes. Dread Doctors." Reese told him. "Focus on Tommy, we have to talk when he wakes up and I want you gone by then."

James finished de-weaponizing Tommy and left. Reese waiting a few more minutes before Tommy finally came to. He looked around the cold room, the walls were concrete and dirty, the floor was mostly dirt, the walls were lined with various weapons. He looked towards his sister-in-law. "What is this?" He gritted his teeth. "Where's Aaliyah?"

"She was taken care of." Reese answered casually crossing her arms over her chest.

Tommy turned red and started frantically trying to untie the ropes from his hands tied behind his back. "Where is she Reese?!" He shouted. "What did you do to her?!"

"Tommy, calm down!" Reese thundered. Her voice was firm and strict, loud but not a shout. She was completely in control, way too collected for something whose kid is supposed to be dead.

Tommy stopped thrashing in his chair and took a breath, though he was still seething. He asked again, quieter this time, "Where is Aaliyah? What did you do to her?"

"I sent her somewhere her abilities can be useful. Somewhere she can help without being a liability." Reese explained calmly stepping towards Tommy, her hands open in front of her to show she's not a threat. Tommy knows better but doesn't shout her away.
