"Daddy?"

"Yeah, Mom, Dad's actually doing great." Daniel, worried someone might snatch Brittany away, after much contemplation, decided to reveal that Dad was still alive.

"He's got some important stuff to handle, so he can't come back just yet. Don't go hanging around with other guys, okay?"

Brittany took Daniel's words as an innocent belief shielded from harsh truths, not having the heart to burst his bubble, "Okay, I promise you, sweetie." Daniel was over the moon, "Mom, you gotta wait for Dad to come back, okay?"

"Okay."

Daniel ate slowly, and halfway through, Brittany went off to the restroom. Coming out, she caught snippets of a conversation not too far away. "Mayor, the offer from the Ulbricht family is just too low."

"Damn it, the guy Elijah brought in is tough, got us by the balls. If we don't agree to the demolition, all our dirty laundry's gonna get aired!"

The mayor grit his teeth, "Get to that guy immediately. Thinks he can threaten me? I want him gone!"

"The guy's always wearing a mask, acting all mysterious!"

They plotted on how to abduct the person, and Brittany realized she'd overheard something she shouldn't have. As she turned to leave, she accidentally knocked over a vase. Crash!

"Someone's here!"

"What are you waiting for, chase them!"

Brittany panicked and bolted, only to be dragged into another suite!
