Chaos in New York City
•••
"Hello?", Elektra keeps asking, but the signal is really bad so she hangs up the phone.
Then George storms out of the bathroom, be barely had any time to take a shower and asks why the noise suddenly became louder by a large margin.
"Was that an explosion?", George asks.
Elektra shows him from the window, which area was hit. His eyes go wide when he remembers that Angel is there with Andre and Meryl.
"We have to help them. I'm going to change and go check on them."
"George it's too risky. Especially now."
"I'm not going to sit here, when I know that Angel is there among the flames."
George changes into a Jean jacket with a t-shirt of Led Zeppelin and Jean pants. He turns to Elektra and hugs her.
"I have screwed up a lot lately, I just hope that I'm a good friend."
Elektra assures him about it and he leaves to find Angel.

Dante is watching the news when he sees about the explosion and the riots. The whole neighborhood of Bronx is in danger.
Harry is also watching it from the TV inside his room. He jumps at the phone and calls at Elektra's apartment.
"Hello?"
"It's me, Harry. Tell me he is not outside of the apartment."
"Sorry to disappoint you, he is trying to reach Angel, a few blocks away."
Harry gets dressed and runs outside, however Dante notices the terror on his face and stops him..
"Hey, what's going on?"
"I have to be somewhere else right now. I promise I will explain everything soon."
Harry takes his motorcycle keys and leaves. Then Dante keeps watching the news.

"ANGEL!", Andre screams inside his burning apartment. He can't spot her and Meryl is crying for her daughter's ambiguous fate.
Then Angel appears outside, at the balcony, trapped by the flames.
"Angel, run to the next balcony, I will come and find you, I promise."
