It is a race against time to find Chloe alive.

".... You said you would meet us!." Mia said as soon as Karisma opened the door. "We waited...
Karisma folded her arms. "I don't want to hear what you've got to say... yes I was adopted.. but I am happy... can we just leave it there..."
"These are your parents." Mia said as she showed her Charisma and Keegan on a picture on her phone.

Karisma looked at the picture and Mia could see by the look on her face that she was interested, just trying to fake it. "I don't know what you expect me to do with that." She shrugged. "I've got to get back to my kids.. I'm sorry..."
Mia and Isaiah turned to leave. Karisma stood against the wall just inside her door and she looked at the ceiling closing her eyes. "Wait!... wait.. They turned to look at her. "Are they good people?..."
