Miami, FL

As soon as they reached Tarpon Point, Brian was met with a gun pointed in his face. "It's all right, let him out." Verone ordered as he and Monica jumped out of the car. "Pop the trunk" Enrique orders Brian to which he does. Enrique brings two bags of money after to Verone "Where's the rest of it?" "The other car." Brian responds blankly. "In the other car. Where's the other car?" Verone asks. "On its way." Brian answers rather quickly. Verone smirks "On the way, huh?" Brian throws the third bag of money on the ground.

"So you know nothing about the agents that stormed my jet?" Verone points a finger at Brian as he shakes his head making Verone nod his head. "The funny thing is that I only told one person about the airstrip." he smiles checking his watch, he turns to Monica putting a hand on her face. "Customs agents sure are gettin' pretty, aren't they? Put her on the boat." A man grabs Monica arm but she rips her arm away, Verone pulls out a gun aiming it at her face "Get on the boat." He orders making Monica look at Brian before turning around.

Enrique orders Brian back into the car with the gun still drawn. Brian is to hide the car "End of the road. You know, I like you, but I still gotta kill you. It's my job." Enrique rambles as Brian tries pressing the ejection button but does not work. Enrique looks at the button "What's that? What's that" Brian keeps trying to press the button as Enrique puts the gun on his head. Rome's voice comes through the walkie "It's Barstow, baby! It's about to get ugly!" he crashes into the truck behind Brian as he tries to get the gun out of Enrique's hand.

Rome opens the passenger door causing Enrique and Brian to fall out. Roman kicks Enrique which allows Brian to take possession of the gun. They each take turns kicking Enrique before they run over and see the yacht leaving. They quickly climb into the car, kicking out the windshield. "I thought you was dead, man" Rome breaks the silence. "Yeah, me too. Thanks for saving my ass, bro. Brian responds while thinking of a plan to save Monica.

"What are you doin' Brian?" Rome changes the subject. "I don't know, but if Verone sees a helicopter or Customs boat, she's dead." Brian responds pressing the gas pedal. "Boat. Car. Boat... You're not gonna do what I think you're gonna do?" Rome yells worrying. "Yeah, I think so. You got my back, bro?" Rome nods "Yeah" Brian reaches to out his seatbelt on "Put on a seat belt." Rome yells "Show 'em some real Dukes of Hazzard shit." Brian speeds up "We're gonna do this big. Hold on, Rome. Hold on." Rome holds onto the handle "Oh! Brian, you crazy, man! What the hell you doin'? Both of them start screaming as they fly over the ramp.

Roman grabs onto his arm groaning "My arm. I think I broke my arm, man." Brian holds onto his head also groaning. They hear footsteps as well as a shotgun cocking before Verone appears "Get the gun" Rome whispers pushing the gun towards Brian with his left arm. Brian quickly grabs the gun shooting Verone in the shoulder causing him to fall.

Monica picks up the shotgun "It's over, Carter." Both men let out a breath "We got 'em, man. We got 'em Let's get outta here." Roman lets out quietly. Rome and Brian both climb out the window as a helicopters flies in with police running with guns.

Rome gets a sling on his arm. "So, there were three bags total, huh? The three from the boat? Markham asks looking back and forth between Brian and Rome. "So we good, right? My record's clean?" Rome questions holding his arm. Markham nods "You held up your end. Your records are clean" Rome opens the trunk to the other car grabbing three more bags. "So maybe there was six bags. I guess we can call it even." Markham continues looking at Rome as he calls over Agent Dunn shaking Rome's good hand and Brian's. "We found some more evidence" Markham says before he walks away. Dunn and a policeman take the bags.

Rome looks over to Verone who is getting patched up, "Don't drop the soap, big homey." he laughs as Verone just smirks. Brian laughs "I hope you know when he gets out, he's gonna kill your ass." "He ain't gettin' out." Verone stands up "I'll see you soon." Rome's smile drops "You think he gonna get out?" "He'll be out" Brian stands up walking away. Rome watches him "No, for real. You think he gettin' out, though?" he says before following Brian. Monica and Bilkins walk up to them.

"We took care of your decoys. They're free and clear. There's a sedan out on the road for you. Try to bring it back in one piece." Rome and Brian smile "Yeah. Thanks a lot, Bilkins." Brian shakes his hand. Monica nods at Rome "So you trust me now?" Rome smiles at her "You a'ight." he says to which she smiles back at him grabbing his bad arm "Sorry." She turns to Brian shaking his hand "Nice working with you, O'Connor" He smiles at her "Same here."

Rome nods his head "Mm. Imma have to stay out here in Miami, man. Keep you out of trouble, brah." he looks over the way Monica went as both him and Brian laugh before walking away. "So you gonna kick it in Miami, bro?" Brian asks. "Oh, man, I love Miami. Miami's off the hook." Rome fist bumps Brian laughing, "Open a garage together." Rome's smile drops "A garage? How we gonna do that, brah?" Brian looks around getting close to Rome "Pockets ain't empty, cuz." he nods as Rome starts laughing lifting up his shirt to reveal his waistband full of cash "And we ain't hungry no more either, brah." They both laugh.
