Nick came to. His head was throbbing and the dim light was almost blinding. "Mae?" He groaned. "Mae?!" He tried to push himself up but his wrists were bound together. "Maeve!" He called out. There was no answer. He tried to move but he was tied tight. He focused on why he was lying on the floor by the washing machine in the first place. There had been a loud bang. They had assumed that the machines were off balance, so he had gotten up and went to see what it was. He couldn't remember what happened from that point on. He could hear noises coming from the bedroom. "Maeve?!" Nothing. Then heavy footsteps were coming towards him.
"Maeve... ain't coming to help you." A gruff voice growled.
Nick was about to say something but he could only groan in pain as the attacker's boot caught him square in the gut. He couldn't breathe. The room was spinning. He just closed his eyes and waited for the pain to pass. That wasn't going to happen. Nick was being dragged across the floor by hit feet. He tried to grab at things as he passed them, but to no avail. Suddenly, there was a blinding light. He blinked to try and have his eyes adjust. He knew where he was. He was back in the bedroom. He still couldn't move and it was getting hard to breathe. "Mae..." He managed to groan. There was a panicked moan that came from the bed. Nick forced himself to look. His jaw dropped when he saw Maeve gagged and pinned to the bed. "Let her go!"
"No." The attacker laughed.
It was then that Nick recognized him. It was Clark. "You son of a bitch."
Clark kicked back, sending Nick reeling. "No. See... no one's gonna stop me. You're gonna watch... then... when I'm done with her, I'll put ya outta your misery."
Nick's eyes filled with tears as he realized what was about to go down. He tried to turn away. Clark forced his head back. There was no way this was going to end well. He felt the tears burn as he watched the brutal attack.

"Hey, Fin!" Olivia called. "You see Nick or Maeve?"
Fin shrugged. "Not since we had that Op blown Friday... you told us to take the weekend off."
