"I did not sign up for this." Veronica said nervously. 

"What do you want us to do? Wave a white flag to them call time out?" Nick retorted sarcastically. 

Jessica looked at him with a glare. 

"Watch your tone." she threatened. sliding off the counter. 

"We just want to get Lincoln off death row alright not cause a world wide conspiracy." Jessica said back to Nick. 

"Lincoln? We just discovered that Vice President Reynolds donated hundreds of thousands of research funds into her brother's company. That money was sent into smaller accounts that got funded toward her campaign. This set her up to be the leader of this country. This does not end with us just stopping an execution." Nick raised his voice at Jessica. 

Jessica looked to LJ before answering him. 

"For me it does." Jessica declared looking Nick dead in the eye. 

Nick rolled his eyes and looked toward Veronica before walking past Jessica bumping her shoulder with his.

       Jessica was still angrily pacing the kitchen. LJ walked up to her. 

"Jess. I want to apologize for what I said to you yesterday. I don't blame you. I never did. I was just mad and hurt and I took it out on you." he told her looking guilty. 

She turned to face him. 

"I know you didn't mean it. This whole thing is tough on all of us."she said to him giving him a hug.

 "If we're able to free my dad are you going to get back together?" he asked her looking up at her with hopeful eyes.

 She looked at him not knowing how to answer.

 "I know that you're with Jason and everything, but I remember how good you and my dad were together. A lot of kids they always wish that their parents would stay together....but I was always happy with you with my dad. Nobody ever made him as happy as you did." he spilled to her. 

"Look at me." she said waiting til he looked at her.

"I love your father. I do. I tried not to. I thought that he didn't love me anymore...But I know that's not true. I wish things could be different I really do. But i honestly don't think things could ever go back to the way they were." she finally confessed to him. 

He pulled away with tears in his eyes and gave her a sad smile before turning away from the room.

 Jess stood there with tears in her eyes.
