9-1-1.

Three: Desperate Measures.

As the citywide blackout continues to cause mayhem in Los Angeles, Athena races to save Ashleigh from a tragedy. Meanwhile, Eddie struggles with his feelings and makes a difficult choice about his future and Maddie makes a life-changing decision.

*Flashback, 2020...*

Ashleigh had just escaped the room Jeffery had kept her in...

Ashleigh was walking around with the gun and flashlight, trying to find her way out.

Ashleigh: "Dispatch, this is Ashleigh Gilbert. Ashleigh Gilbert. Do you hear me?"

Ashleigh groaned, switching to another channel.

Ashleigh: "Can anybody hear me? Please answer if you do. I am at Studio Self Storage. I repeat, this is Ashleigh Gilbert, and I'm being kept at Studio Self Storage."

Ashleigh was speaking to Maddie when Ashleigh was attacked from behind.

And Ashleigh dropped the gun, and Jeffery threw her to the floor, and Ashleigh grabbed the gun, wiping her mouth and crawling backwards, pointing it at him.

Then Ashleigh fired the gun, and Jeffery screamed.

Jeffery was sitting up, handcuffed to a hospital bed, and a doctor walked in...

"Mr. Hudson. We were able to extract the bullet from your hip. The bullet did, however, enter the groin area. We salvaged what we could. We place a stent in your urethra to keep the opening patent. You'll need a full Foley catheter for the next few weeks, but once the sutures are removed and the muscles heal, you should be able to urinate on your own. Though it will have to be sitting down. Well, Nurse Miles here will check your dressing."

Jeffery stared past the doctor at the officer standing outside the door, smirking at Jeffery.

*End of Flashback...*

*Five days ago...*

Lou: "Got to hand it to you, Sergeant, when your instincts are right, they are very, very right."

Athena: "You got him?"

Lou: "We got him, Athena. Jeffery's big adventure is done. He is going back to lockup."

Lou puts Jeffery in the back of his car, and Lila slits Lou's throat.

Jeffery stared at Lila, smiling, then they carried Lou, covered in a sheet, leaving him somewhere.

Jeffery and Lila arrived back at the house...

"I can't believe we just did that." She says.

"There it is. His home address."

"What for? Jeffery, we should leave." She said.

"And then what? You made me a murderer. That's what a crappy lawyer you are. Instead of getting me off for rape, you're gonna get me hung for murder."

"You didn't kill him; I did." She tells him.

"I wasn't talking about him."

He then pulled out the gun, shooting her.

Later, Jeffery entered Lou's place, seeing a picture of Athena and Lou on the wall...

Jeffrey grabbed a box of files, grabbing a single one and flipping through it, stopping to see a picture.

Jeffery slowly pulled it out, seeing it was Ashleigh after they fought.

Jeffery went to Ashleigh's apartment, finding it pitch black...

Jeffery began searching her bedroom, picking up a picture of Ashleigh and Buck staring at it, then put it down, checking the bedside tables.

Jeffery finds her underwear drawer, grabbing a pair of black panties, placing them against his nose, and licking them.

*Present day...*

Jeffery then arrived at Athena's, knowing Ashleigh was there...

Jeffery stood in the kitchen, a few feet from David and Michael.

Later that night, Jeffery walked into another bedroom, finding Ashleigh asleep in bed, and Harry caught him.

"What are you doing?" Asked Harry.

"Looking for the bathroom." Jeffery said.

"Well, this isn't the bathroom. The guest bathroom's over here." Harry says.

"Show me?" Asked Jeffery.

"Are you from the neighbourhood? I don't think I recognise you." Harry murmured.

"I'm a friend of Ash." Jeffery tells Harry.

"From work?" Asked Harry.

"Something like that." Jeffery said, smiling softly.

"We should, uh, let her sleep." Harry said.

Jeffery nodded, then walked out of the bedroom.
