There was a sudden knock on the door scaring the group into silence Gert, Karolina, and the dinosaur hid as they weren't supposed to be here in the first place. However Garfield, looked around in bewilderment completely forgetting what he was supposed to be doing - which led to both he and Chase to have a whispered debate. Another knock was made as a voice spoke up from behind the door, "Honey, you still awake?"

"Just hide!"

"You hide"

"It's my room!"

"Honey?" The worried mother doesn't hear a response, making her open the door only for Chase to be standing behind it, topless and in a towel with a forced smile stretched across his face, "I just got out of the shower."

"Oh," Janet blankly stared at her son, not expecting him to be half naked, "Sorry, I didn't realise."

"Ye-No it's er fine..How's Dad? Is he alive?" Chase pleaded, worried over the fact that his mother would discover a living dinosaur that the girls were hiding with, along with a Garfield who was hiding behind the door.

"PRIDE's taking him." Janet clarifies with her arms crossed and a warm smile directed as reassurance, "He's being given great care..exceptional. Marie is going to take care of him, so I don't want you to worry."

"Marie? Garfield's mom? I thought you couldn't get a hold of her?" He coaxed trying to get as much information as possible. He was mostly confused because his mother called the whole PRIDE group because Marie Logan wouldn't pick up. Strange.

"She arrived in time."

"When Dad gets better I really want another chance with him, you know? What do you think?" Chase questions his mom honestly wanting to know her true opinion.

"I think he would love that." Janet reassured with pursed lips before turning around and heading back downstairs.

"Jesus that was close," he sighed, hitting his head softly on the door before turning his head to glare at the other, "You couldn't just hide, it's not that hard."

"Why are we talking about my hiding skills when we should be talking about how easily you got undressed for your mother," Garfield rebutted, smiling as he did so.

Gert and Karolina had now moved from their hiding spots and walked further into Chase's room, "Way to front your mom," Gert praised Chase believing that what he had said was just him lying, "Alex texted, we have to go."

Garfield stared at Chase's side profile as he knew better. He knew Chase wasn't lying. Chase Stein still wanted a better relationship with his Father even if it meant he would get hurt in the process. Even if it meant he would die trying.

The five of them arrived at timely coffee, and yes Garfield was counting the genetically engineered dinosaur, where Alex and Nico waited for them next to his car in the parking lot. After watching most of the videos, Alex had figured out that they all started differently but all of them ended with the same outcome; neither of their parents looked as if they took sadistic pleasure in what they were doing. Which sucked ass because it ruled out the satanic cult as netflix said the weirdo's enjoyed the sacrificing.

Karolina had driven once again and parked the car in an inconspicuous space as they didn't want any passerby's noticing a gigantic lizard lounging in the back, "Hey, girl, stay here." Gert tells her emotional support animal who nods as she gets covered with a blanket.

The teens walk over to Alex and Nico as Alex speaks up, once noticing the approaching group holding his laptop in his hand, "Got it all right here, all the proof we need to put 'em away forever. Where are we sending it first?"
