The team has settled into their assigned spots. Aria and Mac are sitting together on the couch, positioned behind Sarah. Nikki is seated across from them, while Chase is peacefully nestled in Aria's belly. Suddenly, Aria experiences discomfort in the upper part of her abdomen, just beneath where Chase is.
Noticing Aria's discomfort, Mac turns to her and asks "what's wrong," affectionately calling her "babe." Aria asks Mac to show her his hand, and he readily extends it to her.
She places his hand on the area of her belly that hurts, explaining the location of her discomfort. Mac gently touches her belly before pulling his hand away, reassuring her that she's okay. Curious, Aria asks him what he thinks it is, and he responds that it feels like butterflies.
Aria shakes her head, unconvinced by Mac's explanation. She seems hesitant, troubled by an uneasy feeling. Mac looks at her and inquires if she's alright.
Aria sits up and rests her head on Mac's lap as he gently strokes her side. She confides in him that something feels off. Mac asks if it's her belly or something else that's bothering her. Aria admits that it's the other issue that's making her uneasy. "Alright, everyone, let's break this chrysalis," Aria says.
Suddenly, Aria spots some guards approaching. "Uh, guys, we have company," she warns. "What are they doing here?" Sarah asks. "They work for Phoenix," Jack replies. Aria looks at Mac, who nods in confirmation. Then they see Thornton, and Aria exclaims, "Oh no."
"It's over, MacGyver, Aria, Dalton," Thornton declares.
