"You're pregnant?" Lexi asked "what the hell"

"I'm two months" Katie cried

"You can't  execute a pregnant lady!" Sutton said

"It isn't my choice. It's the judges" Chloe said

"The judge? Really Chlo, your the mayor of this place! Stop this immediately" Jake yelled

"She's my sister for god sakes. What the hell would you do if it was clair!" Piper said "you can't kill her. She's made up for her mistakes!"

"No, she hasn't hunny" a cop said

"DONT CALL ME A HUNNY! SHES MY SISTER!" Piper yelled smacking the cop in the face "YOU LEAVE KATIE ALONE!"

"Brynn, can you take piper out of here" Chloe asked "before we need to restrain her"

"Ya, come on Piper" Brynn said guiding her out to the car.

"Let's go sneak into Stephanie's asylum and get our answers" Brynn said

"Good idea" piper smiled

"Officers, Katie isn't going to be killed, period!" Sutton said

"Oh really, says who" The Officer said

"Says myself, I am the freaking supervisor of all of you. And, you are here by.. FIRED!" Sutton yelled "get out of this hospital, and hand me your badge!"

The officer threw the badge on the floor. "Whatever psycho"

"Katie, come on. It's time to come home" Lexi said, helping her out of the bed.

Katie, Jake, Lexi and Sutton left the hospital with Chloe.

"We can't let this happen, Chloe" Lexi said

"I know, and I'll have a word with the judge. But her death is suppose to be done by Friday"

"So we have three days to work with?" Jake asked "alright, we will make it work! Now Chloe, hurry"

"I will" Chloe said hugging Jake "I'm glad your safe"

Chloe got into her corolla SUV and took off, Katie got into Lexi's car.

"Thanks for coming, Sutton." Lexi smiled hugging her, "keep in touch."

"I will" Sutton said getting into her police car and driving off

Jake hugged Lexi. "I'm sorry babe, for earlier. I shouldn't have yelled"

"Neither should I, but now we worry about Katie, and keeping her alive"

Jake and Lexi got into the car, jakes phone buzzed

"Oh my god" Jake said

"What is it?" Lexi asked

"Twenty two million dollars was just deposited into our bank" Jake said "the house insurance came in"

"Holy fuck, that's a lot" Katie said

"I didn't think it would be over a couple thousand" Lexi said, "good, now we can pay off Brynn's house and get our own"

Lexi pulled into Brynn's driveway, and her car was gone. "Where would she have gone?" Jake asked

"No clue, let's get inside"

AT BALDERVIEW ASYLUM

"Shh" Brynn said motioning piper to be quiet, she pushed open a door, and the two snuck inside

Brynn walked over and put her hand over Steph's mouth, her eyes widened. "You scream. And I'll kill you"

"How'd you get here?" Steph asked
