She promises to make him pay and to see him dead for this if he did this and she tells him not to tell her he wasn't involved. She can see it on his face.

Meanwhile, a man that maintains some of the warehouses near the pier is found by some of the officers and brought to Roman. He explains he saw a man that looked just like Eric with a woman with brown hair. They were on the pier around two hours ago. Roman tells Nicole what he learned and she feels relieved but still wants to find him. She heads for the pier to see if he is still there and says she will look around.
