Dyhannah Cooper rings the doorbell to the Blackmore mansion and waits for Vivian Blackmore to open the door. As soon as she had finished her morning coffee and shower, Dyhannah made a beeline for the mansion as she is desperate to find out about what happened the previous night when Vivian had dinner with her fiancé, Chase Cooper. Dyhannah knows that Vivian was going to try to seduce Chase to see if he would stray; Dyhannah had seen a few close encounters between the former spouses, and so she wanted to ensure Chase was committed to her before they got married. Now, she is eager to find out how the dinner went.

When the door finally opens, Dyhannah looks back at Vivian with intent. "I know it's early, but I barely slept last night, wondering how your dinner with my fiancé went," she announces as she moves into the foyer of the mansion.

Vivian chuckles back to her. "Good morning to you too," she winks back to her. "And our dinner was lovely. Despite everything that has happened, I still enjoy Chase's company a great deal."

"Yes, yes, he's a great conversationalist," Dyhannah waves her hand in the air. "Please tell me what happened? Did you try to seduce him?"

"You can relax," Vivian reassures her. "Nothing happened between Chase and I. I made a pass at him, and he told me that I was in a good marriage with Kent, and he was in love with you. Chase still loves you, Dyhannah."

Dyhannah breathes a sigh of relief as a smile creeps over her face. "Thank God," she whispers. "Thank you, Vivian. I…I know we haven't always gotten along, but I really do appreciate your help with this."

A short time later, Dyhannah opens the door to the suite that she shares with Chase and moves inside. She sees her fiancé about to pour himself a cup of coffee.

"Good morning, you were out and about early today," he turns to her and chuckles. "Did you have a meeting at Rockwell Mining that couldn't wait?"

"I did have an important meeting," Dyhannah nods as she moves up to him and wraps her arms around his neck before she leans in and kisses him passionately. When their lips part, she smiles back to him. "I do love you, Chase."

"And I love you," he responds to her. "What is this all about?"

Dyhannah chuckles back to him. "I have been so focused on Rockwell Mining and my job, that I feel like I have ignored you. I want that to change, Chase."

Chase smirks back to her. "And how do you plan on doing that?"

"I want to spend the morning making love to you," she informs him. "And I want us to get married as soon as possible. I am ready to be your wife, Chase. I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

Chase leans in and kisses her passionately. "I think both of those things can be arranged," he tells her as he guides her towards the bed and they fall on top of one another, their lips never leaving each other.

"Are we alone?" Dane Ashby asks his fiancé, Lucinda Rockwell, as he moves into the living room of the Rockwell mansion. He has been eagerly waiting for him to have some time alone with Lucinda so he can reveal what he overheard the previous night; Lexington Rockwell found out from his boyfriend, Casper Ross, that Lydia Rockwell hired Casper to investigate Dane's past. Since hearing this, Dane has wondered if this is the reason why Lucinda has been hesitated to get married to him.

"Yes, we are," Lucinda replies to him as she pours another cup of coffee. "MacKenzie and Lydia have already left for Rockwell Mining; they seemed to have a busy day planned."

"I bet they do," Dane rolls his eyes as he moves closer to her. "Anyways, I am glad that we are alone, Lucinda. We have to talk."

"It sounds serious," Lucinda replies to him as he sits next to her on the sofa. "Please tell me that you didn't get a call from the hospital regarding Levi?" she asks him, thinking about how her son, Nathan Lockhart, is still in the psychiatric ward.

"No, I haven't heard anything," Dane informs her. "This has to do with Lydia."

"Lydia? What has she done now?"

Dane uneasily chuckles back to her. "I overheard something last night," Dane begins to tell her. "I found out that Lydia hired Casper Ross, you know Lex's new boyfriend, to investigate my past. Can you believe that? She went snooping into any past skeletons I may have!"

Lucinda uneasily looks back at him before she takes a sip of her coffee. Dane looks at her in surprise as Lucinda didn't even flinch at his news. "Wait, you're not surprised by this? Lucinda, did you know that Lydia investigated my past? Did you know about this?"

Lucinda finds herself nodding back to him. "As a matter of fact," she purses her lips together. "I did know about it, Dane. And I have known for some time," she says as he gasps back to her in shock and horror.

"I really wish that Helena Grant would hurry up and get here," Lydia tells Mac Rockwell as she paces back and forth in the main office at Rockwell Mining. Lydia and Mac arrived at the office today and have already called the police detective to let her know that they have the proof that she asked for to confirm that Kent Blackmore and Dyhannah have been working together to try to steal their Roboto collaboration deal.

Mac chuckles back to her. "She will be here," he tells her. "The fact is, we have the video footage of them meeting, and Lex sent us the text of the Roboto file from Kent's office at Blackmore Ltd. We have more than enough proof that they have been working together to steal our deal."

"What do you think Helena will do with the information?"

"I hope to God that they are arrested," Mac tells her. "But we will see what she says."

"I hope I'm not too late," Helena Grant says as she opens the door to the office as Mac and Lydia turn to face her. "Your message noted that you had proof of Kent and Dyhannah working together?"

"Yes, we certainly do," Lydia smiles back to her. "We have video footage that was taken from our security cameras last night where they met in secret in the alley behind the Rockwell Mining tower; and we have a picture of Kent's file on Roboto, which is proof that they have been working to secure our deal."

"I see," Helena nods back to her as she moves up to the desk. "Do you mind if I take a look?"

"Of course, be our guest," Mac replies to her. "And when you're done, I want to know, exactly, what you're going to do to Kent and Dyhannah because I want them to pay!"

MOSCOW, RUSSIA

"The wire has been disabled?" Quinn Cunningham asks Deacon Cooper as they face one another in their hotel suite in Moscow. Deacon and Quinn had spent the morning making love to one another and when they were finished, he realized that the wire that Quinn's mother, Sabine Andrews, was wearing had been disabled. Sabine had gone to the Kremlin to try to find Marat Kafelinkov, who has kidnapped Quinn's child, Jumper. The plan was for Sabine to claim that she was in Russia on business, and when Marat questioned her about Jumper, Sabine was going to announce that Quinn was in a better place since she lost her son. "This can't be good!"

"I know," Deacon tries to keep calm. "I am worried that Marat has uncovered that Sabine was trying to get Jumper back."

"If anything happens to my mother, I don't know what I will do!" Quinn says as she gets tears in her eyes. "We...we have to do something!"

"I agree, we do," Deacon nods back to her. "I think we have to go to the Kremlin and make sure that Sabine is okay."

"But, if we go to the Kremlin and Marat sees us, he will know that we are also in Moscow," Quinn informs her. "No, we can't go to the Kremlin or we will be busted."

Deacon pauses for a moment as he stops to think about how they could get to the Kremlin and ensure Sabine is safe. Suddenly, it dawns on him. "I got it," he looks back at his lover. "We can go to the Kremlin in disguises; this way we won't trip off Marat that we are there."

Quinn finds herself nodding back to him. "Okay, so let's find some disguises and go. The sooner we get to my mother, the better off we will be."

***

"Please, Marat, I'm begging you," a desperate Sabine pleads with her kidnapper as she remains tied to a chair in the basement of the Kremlin, next to the large vats of acid that are bubbling. "You can let me go, I will help you, I promise."

Marat looks back at her and recalls how he was surprised to see Sabine in his office earlier in the day. She claimed that she wanted to do business with him, which is why she was in Moscow, but he saw through that and knew that she was there to try to find Jumper. When Sabine admitted that she wanted her grandson back, they ended up in an altercation, and Sabine fell back and hit her head, which rendered her unconscious. At that moment, Marat took the opportunity to bring her body to the basement as he refuses to give up Jumper; after everything Quinn put him through with lying about his paternity, Marat will not surrender him to anyone.

He starts to chuckle as he realizes that Sabine is, still, pleading with him that they can work things out. "Don't you understand?" he looks at her with an evil glare. "You and your daughter are the problems, Sabine! You will not take Jumper away from me; not now, not ever!"

"Please, Marat," Sabine continues to plead with him. "I know that I can convince Quinn that you two can share custody of Jumper, you just have to do the right thing and let me go!"

"No," Marat whispers back to her. "You're not going anywhere, not until I can make certain that I won't lose Jumper. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to make a phone call and ensure that my son is okay."

Sabine watches as Marat moves to one of the vats of acid and starts to dial a number into his phone. "Okay, how the hell am I going to get out of here? I must send a signal to Quinn and Deacon, but how? Come on, Sabine, think! There has to be a way to get out of here."

Cole Rockwell opens the door to the study of the Rockwell mansion and moves inside, as his mind thinks about the previous night when he had a talk with his younger brother, Lexington Rockwell. During the talk, Cole admitted to Lex that he saw his former girlfriend, Celeste Baldwin, getting cozy with Houston Blackmore. Seeing them together, considering their sexual history together, bothered Cole, and that's when Lex suggested that Cole still had feelings for Celeste.

Cole has been convinced that he and Celeste have had a toxic relationship and as a result, he has been pushing her away and telling her, repeatedly, that they are over. Ever since Lex, however, told him that he might still have feelings for Celeste, it has been on Cole's mind.

He finds himself shaking his head as he moves to the bar to pour himself a drink. "Do I actually still care for Celeste?" he whispers to himself as he takes a sip of his gin and tonic. "We have been through so much together, it would make sense that, on some level, I still care about her, but I have been so determined to end things with her."

"I can't deny, however," he continues to talk to himself. "That seeing her with Houston did make me upset. Ugh, I could have seen her with any other guy and I wouldn't have been this upset, or am I just fooling myself by saying that. Maybe Lex is right; maybe I still care for Celeste and I am on the brink of losing her forever."

***

Casper Ross opens the front door of the country club and makes a beeline towards the bar, where he can see Dyhannah sitting with a champagne cocktail in front of her. He requested to meet her today because he must tell her about what he witnessed the previous night; he just hopes that she is ready to hear about what he saw because he suspects that her world will change after he tells her the information.

"Casper, hi," Dyhannah smiles back to him. "I just ordered a champagne cocktail, would you care for one?"

"Champagne, huh?" Casper chuckles back to her. "I am good, but are you celebrating?"

"I've had the most wonderful or mornings," she replies to him. "Vivian Blackmore told me that nothing happened between her and Chase last night, so I told my fiancé that I want to be married as soon as possible! Everything in my personal life is coming together wonderfully."

"I see," Casper gulps back to her. "So, you already saw Vivian this morning?"

"I went to her mansion first thing this morning."

"And she told you that nothing happened between her and Chase?"

"That's right," Dyhannah nods back to him as she turns to him. "Why? What is going on, Casper? Do you have information that differs from Vivian's story?"

"I was here last night, Dyhannah," Casper reveals to her. "I was watching Vivian and Chase have dinner."

"Yes, I recall getting your text message."

"Well, after they were done eating, they went upstairs. I assumed Vivian was just walking Chase back to the suite," Casper continues. "But then, I saw something."

"What did you see?" Dyhannah asks him quickly.

"This," Casper says as he unlocks his phone and shows Dyhannah the pictures of Vivian and Chase kissing in the hallway upstairs. "Vivian might have said nothing happened last night, but this sure doesn't look like nothing to me."

Dyhannah feels the blood drain from her face at the image in front of her. "What happened next?"

"I…I, uh, don't know," Casper reveals to her. "I didn't want to risk them seeing me, so I left. I don't know if they went into his room or…"

"My God," Dyhannah gasps back to him. "They slept together, didn't they? Vivian lied to me to cover her own sorry ass and Chase, he really did sleep with his ex-wife! That son of a bitch!"

***

A short time later, a livid Dyhannah steps off the elevator at Blackmore Ltd. and quickly rushes towards the main office. She opens the door just as Kent Blackmore is about to pick up his phone.

"Put that phone down," she demands from him. "We have to talk, and it can't wait, Kent."

Kent stands up and arches his eyebrow back to her. "Dyhannah, what the hell is wrong with you? You can't just come barging in here whenever you want! I have a business to run!"

"I know, but this couldn't wait, Kent. You won't believe what has happened!"

"If this has anything to do with our meeting last night," Kent replies to her quickly. "I haven't changed my mind. We have to stop spying on Rockwell Mining; with Lex knowing the truth, he could send us both to jail!"

"This has nothing to do with the plan to get back at the Rockwell's," Dyhannah hisses back to him. "This has to do with my fiancé and your hussy wife!"

Kent looks back at her in surprise. "Chase and Vivian? What about them?"

"This happened last night," Dyhannah reveals to him as she holds us her phone and shows him the picture of Vivian and Chase kissing, which makes Kent's blood boil. "They played us for fools, Kent. Vivian and Chase, they are having an affair behind our backs!"

***

Vivian moves to the front door of the mansion as she has heard the doorbell ring. She can't help but wonder if it is Dyhannah, who was there earlier in the day to find out what happened between her and Chase the previous night. When she opens the door, she is surprised to see Chase standing on the other side.

"Chase, my goodness," Vivian smiles as she greets him. "Please come in. I wasn't expecting to see you so soon again after last night."

"I know," Chase chuckles back to her. "The truth is, I owe you a huge thank you, and so I brought you these," he reveals a dozen red roses that he had behind his back.

"They are stunning," Vivian accepts the roses. "Thank you so much, but I have no idea what I have done to deserve these beautiful flowers."

"You helped me and Dyhannah get back to a good place," Chase reveals to her. "This morning, she apologized to me for putting her position at Rockwell Mining before me, and she wants to get married as soon as possible. We even made love, Vivian, and it was the first time we were intimate in weeks. I owe of that to you."

Vivian smiles back to him. "I am so happy to hear that," she moves up to hug him. "You deserve nothing but the best, Chase. And for the record, I told Dyhannah that as well."

"You saw Dyhannah?"

"Yes, briefly, earlier," Vivian tells him. "I told her that you are the man that she should marry, and so I am glad that my advice paid off."

"It really has," Chase chuckles back to her. "Thank you again, Vivian. And don't worry, I won't repeat a word of our kiss to anyone last night. It can be our secret."

"I appreciate that," Vivian nods back to him. "It put everything into perspective, for everyone involved."

***

Dane Ashby steps off the elevator at Rockwell Mining and heads towards the main office. He needs to speak to Lydia about her investigation into his past; he can't believe that Lydia had the nerve to have look into his past to ensure he doesn't have any skeletons in his closet before he married Lucinda. Not only that, but Lucinda has known about the investigation and he can't help but wonder if that is why she has been so hesitant to get married now.

"Good, you're here," he announces as he opens the door to the office and sees Lydia about to pour herself a scotch. "You have some explaining to do."

Lydia turns and faces Dane. "Dane, I'm afraid that this will have to wait. Mac and I just had a very important meeting and I am expecting a phone call for an update any moment."

"I could care less about what you have on the go," Dane grits his teeth together. "You have some explaining to do!"

"Okay, fine, what is it that is urgent, Dane? And why are you yelling at me?"

"Because," Dane glares back at her. "I know what you did, Lydia! I know that you had me investigated! Why the hell did you do that? What, exactly, were you hoping to find?"

Lydia chuckles back to him before she takes a sip of her drink. "Oh Dane, you're being so…dramatic," Lydia tells him. "The fact of the matter is, you proposed to Lucinda, who is a beloved member of this family. Did you really think that I, we, were going to let you come into this family without doing out due diligence? I don't think so. And, if you're waiting for an apology, you won't get one, so do not hold your breath."

"I still don't understand what you were looking for!"

"Anything and everything," Lydia smirks back to him. "I didn't want any stone in your past left unturned, Dane. Lucinda, and the family, deserve to know the type of man that you are. And now, we know."

Dane looks back at her in shock. "What does that mean?"

"Let's just say that the investigation uncovered everything that we need to know, Dane," Lydia giggles before she takes another sip of her drink.
***

A short time later, Mac opens the door to his office at Rockwell Mining and sees Dane pacing back and forth in front of the sofa. Mac looks at his biological father and arches his eyebrow, wondering what he is doing there.

"Dane, what is it? What brings you by?" Mac asks him as he moves to the desk and sets his briefcase down.

"I just had a meeting with Lydia," Dane reveals to him. "I don't know what you ever saw in the woman, son."

Mac chuckles back to him. "That is a very long story," he tells him. "Did you two have words? And if so, what was it about?"

"I found something out," Dane replies to him. "I discovered that Lydia hired a private investigator and had my past looked into. Apparently, she wanted to ensure that I had no skeletons before I married Lucinda."

"I hate to say this," Mac gulps back to his father. "But I knew about this, Dane. Lydia told me about this a while."

"Ugh, am I the last one to know? You all have known about this and here I am the fool in the dark?"

"It's not like that," Mac tries to reassure him. "I suppose, on some level, I wanted to know if there was anything in your past before you married my mother. You to understand, Dane, that the Rockwell's, we have targets on our backs. So, Lydia wanted to ensure that Lucinda wasn't going to get hurt."

"And? What the hell did she uncover? She made it seem like there was something she found, and I know, for certain, that there isn't anything in my past that would make Lucinda question our future together!" Dane protests.

Mac uneasily nods back to him, wondering if Dane even knows that Dyhannah is his daughter. Based on his reaction, he would have no idea that Dyhannah is his child and that she is in Kelsey Lake.

"I just wish I knew what Lydia found or told Lucinda so I can make it right with her," Dane sighs back to him. "Because right now, this all seems like a mess and it's not getting any better."

***

A short time later, Mac is at the Rockwell mansion and opens the door to the study, where he sees Lucinda looking into the flames that are roaring in the fireplace. He is glad that he has found his mother, because he wants to talk to her after his conversation with Dane.

"It's easy to get lost in the flames, isn't it?" he chuckles as he moves up to her.

"Yes, it's a good way to get lost in your thoughts," Lucinda replies to him. "I am surprised you're home so early; I thought you'd be at the office for a few more hours."

"I have to get back, but I needed to talk to you about something," Mac reveals to her. "It's about Dane and Dyhannah."

"Oh God," Lucinda sighs back to him. "Dane found out that Lydia had him investigated. He's losing his mind as a result."

"I know, he just paid me a visit at Rockwell Mining," Mac informs her. "He thinks that we have uncovered something and that is why you have been reluctant to marry him."

"If he thinks that and still hasn't figured out that we know about Dyhannah, then he is a fool," she quips back to him.

"That's just it," he looks back at her with intent. "I don't think he knows. I don't think that Dane knows that Dyhannah is his daughter; that would explain everything, wouldn't it?"

Lucinda uneasily nods back to him. "I…I suppose that is a possibility," she tells him. "And if that is the case, then we have to ask ourselves: do we tell Dane the truth? Do we tell him that Dyhannah is his daughter?"

***

"Are you sure that no one will recognize us?" a nervous Quinn asks Deacon as they stand in the elevator at the Kremlin. They are wearing disguises, hoping that Marat won't realize that they are looking for Sabine, who has seemingly disappeared. They are concerned that Marat has discovered that Sabine was wearing a wire in hopes of trying to find out where Jumper is and now, she is also in danger.

Deacon quickly fixes the fake mustache that he has on his face before he looks back at Quinn, who is has a black wig on. "We aren't going to be here that long," he reminds her. "We really just need to find Sabine and leave; no one will see us long enough to question what we look like."

Quinn nervously nods back to him. "Yea, you're right," she replies to him. "We need to act quickly."

"Here we go," Deacon tells her as the elevator doors open. "Follow my lead, okay?"

"Let's go," she whispers to him as they move into the foyer. They turn the corner and freeze when they see Marat about to take a private elevator.

Quinn looks at Deacon. "That's Marat," she whispers into his ear. "Thank God we found him; we have to follow him. Come on," she says as Marat gets into the elevator and the doors close. As soon as the elevator starts to move, Quinn and Deacon push the button for the elevator and wait for it, as they look to see which floor Marat stops at.

"The basement," Deacon gulps back to Quinn. "Why the hell would Marat be in the basement of his own company?"

"I don't know but I don't have a great feeling about this," Quinn tells him as they wait for the elevator to return.

***

Kent pours himself a scotch from the bar in his office at Blackmore Ltd. His mind is racing over the fact that Dyhannah just showed him a picture of Chase and Vivian kissing; he believed that his marriage to Vivian was going to be different this time, but it seems that they have fallen back into their old ways.

He takes a long drink of his scotch before he moves to the desk and sits down. "I can deal with Vivian later," he whispers to himself. "Right now, I still have to see if I can secure the Roboto collaboration. Even though Lex knows that Dyhannah was feeding me information, I can still try to get the deal on my own."

He picks up his phone and dials a number. "Natasha Calimo," he says with a smile on his face. "It's Kent Blackmore, how the hell are you?... Yes, it has been a number of years! I think the last time I saw you was at your father's memorial … I know, I still can't believe that Bob is gone myself … listen, our families go way back, and I heard through the grapevine that you were looking to partner with a diamond company on a project … Ah, you've already been in touch with Rockwell Mining, but you know, Natasha, I think Blackmore Ltd. would be a much better fit," he chuckles into his phone. "What if I put together a proposal and send it your way? Can you at least take a look at it? … I appreciate that, Natasha. You'll have it in your inbox very shortly."

***

"Please tell me that you've come to your senses and that you won't say anything about Dynannah and Kent's plan?" Houston asks Lex as he moves up to the bar at the country club and sees his half-brother sitting there alone with a drink in front of him. Houston is still hoping that he can convince Lex not to say anything to anyone about Dyhannah and Kent working together because now they are going to try to get the Roboto deal without being underhanded.

Lex turns and sees Houston, who is fuming. "You need to calm down," Lex replies to him quickly. "And you are in no position to tell me what to do; you and Kent, you should both know better!"

"We have learned our lesson," Houston says back to him. "But all of that will be thrown out the window if you open your mouth."

"I wouldn't have to say anything if you hadn't been so … I don't know, criminal?"

"Lex, please," Houston pleads with him. "Don't you see, if you say anything, anything at all, you are going to be single-handily ruining Blackmore Ltd. I know you go by Lex Rockwell, but you are a Blackmore. Kent is your father! Do you really want to ruin your family business?"

"Don't you dare put that on me," Lex grits his teeth back to him. "You and Kent did this, and now, you have to face the consequences."

***

Deacon and Quinn slowly walk off the elevator when the doors open, and they move into the basement of the Kremlin. Immediately, they start to look around the room to get familiar with the surroundings. Quinn hears the acid in the vats bubbling away, which causes her to grab Deacon's arm.

"What the hell is this place?" she whispers back to him.

"I…I don't know," Deacon admits to her. "But it seems like a good place for someone to hide something, don't you think?"

Quinn arches her eyebrow back to him. "What do you think Marat is hiding down here?"

Deacon pulls Quinn behind one of the large cement vats of acid when he sees Marat moving around. They peer their heads around the vat, and Deacon gasps back in horror when he sees Sabine tied to a chair and Marat is talking to her about something.

He leans back and looks at Quinn with desperation on his face. "He has your mother," he whispers to her. "She's tied to a chair; he must have figured out what Sabine was up too."

"We have to save her," Quinn's lower lip trembles. "We have to get my mother away from Marat."

***

"Oh darling, you're home early," Vivian smiles as she moves into the foyer of the Blackmore mansion after she heard the front door open. She sees Kent setting his briefcase down on the marble floor as she moves up to him and pulls him into a hug. "Maybe we can spend the afternoon making love?"

Kent chuckles back to her as they exit their embrace. "Well, that sounds nice," he tells her as they lock eyes. "But the truth is, I have to talk to you."

"I'm all ears baby."

"I saw a picture earlier today," he reveals to her as he moves into the living room of the mansion and walks to the bar. "Something that has left me very unsettled."

"A picture? Of what?" Vivian asks him as she follows him into the living room of the mansion.

"You and Chase Cooper," Kent turns to face her with a scotch in his hand. "You were kissing. So, Vivian, my dear wife, when were you going to tell me that you were having an affair with your ex-husband?"

Vivian gasps back to him, not realizing that someone had taken a picture of her and Chase from the previous night. "I…Kent, it's not what you think," she tells him. "Did I kiss him? Yes, I did. But it was only to ensure he wouldn't have slept with me because he is engaged to Dyhannah. Nothing else happened, Kent. You have to believe me, please tell me you believe me!"

***

Dyhannah quickly opens the door to the country club and rushes towards the stairs so she can head up to the second level to Chase's suite. She needs to see him to understand why he was kissing Vivian the night before; she had believed that nothing happened the previous night between Vivian and Chase, but after the picture is clear proof that something else happened.

Before she can go upstairs, she happens to see Chase sitting at a table in the dining room of the club. She stops and quickly redirects herself towards his table. "I can't believe you would do this to me!" she shrikes as she moves up to his table. "You and I, we spent all morning in bed together …"

"Would you keep your voice down?" a stunned Chase responds to her as he stands up and looks at her. "What the hell has gotten into you?"

"What's gotten into me?" Dyhannah squeals back to him. "I know what you did with Vivian! I know, Chase!"

"I have no idea what you're talking about," he responds to her.

Before Dyhannah can say anything else to him, Helena Grant moves up behind her. "Ms. Cooper, I'm glad I found you," the detective says, as most of the people in the club are watching Chase and Dyhannah's interaction now.

"This really isn't a good time," Dyhannah turns and glares back at her. "I'm having a serious conversation right now."

"Well, that's too bad," Helena shrugs her shoulders. "Because you're under arrest for corporate fraud, you have the right to remain silent…"

"No!" Dyhannah shrieks at the top of her lungs. "This is wrong! This is so wrong! Chase….please help me!"

***

"What do you want to do?" Quinn asks Deacon in a whisper as they continue to stand behind one of the vats of acid in the basement of the Kremlin. "How are we going to get my mother away from Marat?"

"We just saw him return, right?" Deacon replies to her quickly. "He has to leave here at some point, once he does, we will go and get Sabine and leave here once and for all."

"But," Quinn let's a tear fall from her eye. "If we leave, what about Jumper? I can't…I can't leave without my son."

"One thing at a time," Deacon says back to her. "First we save Sabine and then we will get Jumper. Trust me, okay?"

"Well, well, well," a voice booms from behind them. They turn around and are horrified to see Marat standing there with a grin on his face. "Look what the cat dragged in. Hi guys, long time no see," he smirks with an evil glint in his eyes.
