Dakota's Apartment 

Dakota was in her room packing up her clothes while a man repaired her window.

"It's too bad you're not staying here. Nice place." The repair man announced.

Dakota brought out another box and set it on the hallway, "Thanks." Cooper sniffed the box and whimpered. "Yeah I know. But things change Cooper."

"So what happened to the window anyway?" He asked.

Dakota chuckled, "Trust me. You don't wanna know." The phone rang and Dakota picked it up. "Hello?"

"Kota we got a problem. A huge problem." Barry said into the phone. "Stein's gone."

"STEIN'S GONE?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S GONE?!" Dakota shouted into the phone.

"Eiling took him. Wells couldn't do anything about it." Barry replied.

"Uh-huh. I'll be right there." Dakota hung up the phone and shoved it in her pocket. "Look dude I have to go. Major issue at work. Lock up when you're done."

The man nodded and went back to fixing the window.

"I got here as fast as I could. The guy's trying to fix my window." Dakota glanced anxiously at Wells and put her bag in the corner.

"So how do we find him?" Ronnie asked.

Dakota smiled and looked at him as did everyone else.

A moment later Ronnie was sitting in a chair with brain wave electrodes on his head.

"You're vitals are stable." Caitlyn said. "Everything's normal."

"I feel nothing." Ronnie replied.

"Give it a bit. It'll come eventually." Dakota was leaning against the wall.

Ronnie braced himself against the chair, "I feel something. It's cold. Really cold."

"Stein." Wells replied.

Suddenly Ronnie started screaming and Cisco and Caitlyn held him down.

He relaxed after a few minutes and coughed out, "Water."

Cisco handed him a glass and he slammed it against the table. Ronnie cut the glass on his arm.

"Ronnie stop!" Caitlyn ordered grabbing for his wrist.

Dakota grabbed her wrist, "Don't."

Ronnie cut WHERE into his forearm. A few seconds went by, "I hear something. Tap tap. Tap. Tap. Tap."

"Morse code." Dakota announced.

"Same thing again." Ronnie added.

"27!" Dakota shouted. "Military bases go by numbers sometimes!"

"How did you know that?" Cisco asked.

"Daughter of two FBI agents. I'm pretty good at Morse code and five other languages." Dakota replied proudly.

"Damn you're good." Ronnie nodded, impressed.

"Facility 27 about 300 miles from here." Cisco announced.

"I'm coming." Ronnie took the device off his head and stood up.

"No. It's too dangerous." Caitlyn murmured.

"Well I'm going." Dakota announced unzipping her bag and pulling out her suit.

"No you're not." Barry challenged.

Dakota chuckled, "I'm your cover fire while you get Stein and I can protect Ronnie."

"She's going." Caitlyn agreed.

Dakota zipped up her jacket and slung her bow and quiver over her shoulder. "Let's go."
