DAHLIA GROANED in frustration. The three individuals escaped, taking the laboratory with them. She glared in Bill's direction, as he felt her eyes burning into his skin. Hank Pym faked having a heart attack, as Hope and Scott urged Bill to give him his medication found a small Altoid container. Instead it contained large ants, as the ants surrounded Ava, Bill and her. Ava tried to defend herself before being knocked backward by a bolt from Hope's gauntlets. Before Dahlia could retaliate, the ants surrounded Bill and her. She was defenceless in this situation, as she groaned in annoyance. She watched as Scott took the lab in his hands, the three of them retreating towards the van. Dahlia managed to evade the large ants, running out of the house towards the van. Her speed failed her, as the vehicle sped away, disappearing from her sight. Panting in frustration, resting her hands on her knees.

"Dammit." she cursed. Wiping the sweat from her forehead, she entered the house. Closing the door behind her. She rushes towards Ava, helping her up from the floor. The woman had her hand pressed to her abdomen, trying to relieve the immense pain throbbing through her body. Dahlia felt Bill's presence next to her, before scowling in his direction.

"For someone who is so intelligent, you do fall easily for traps." Dahlia mumbled.

"How was I supposed to know he hid something other than medication in the Altoid container?" Bill questioned her. Dahlia just rolled her eyes, ignoring him. Ava soon stood up on her own two feet, soon pulling herself away from Dahlia. She was confused as to why Ava was acting so hostile towards her.

"The laboratory is gone. We have to find a way to get it back." Ava winced in pain as she spoke.

"Any ideas?" Bill asked.

"Lia, use the FBI to find them." Ava said.

"But they have no other leads..."

"I don't care!" Ava snapped. Dahlia was startled, not expecting such behaviour towards her from Ava.

"Ava...all the intel I gathered was for Pym's previous location. I would not know where he is now." Dahlia tried to speak calmly to the shaken woman.

"I need the lab, Dahlia." Ava paced back and forth. Dahlia gazed back at Bill, the two having a mutual concern after witnessing Ava's sudden outburst.

"Give Dahlia more time and I'm sure she will gather the intel to find them. She will..." Bill was soon cut off by Ava.

"It took her months to find their location and you expect me to believe she can find them in a few hours?" Dahlia felt hurt by Ava's lack of belief in her. Something was not right. She did not seem herself.
