INT. BAUER HOME - LIVING ROOM

*We pick up where we last left off with A-M and Ed in the living room.

Ed: Alan Michael?

A-M: Uncle Ed, I am sure--

Ed hugs A-M tightly. A-M is surprised by this gesture.

Ed: I have missed you so much. I'm so glad that you are home.

A-M: Yeah but for how long. The cops are still looking for me for embezzlement and my dad has men following me. I'm sure he knows I am in town.

Ed: Ok, ok. Calm down, nephew. Just have a seat on the sofa for a second while I go and call Michelle back.

A-M nods and has a seat on the sofa. Ed picks up the phone and dials Michelle back.

Ed: (into phone) ...Hello? Michelle, what is going on? ...What?! (looks at A-M) ...(voice trembling) You sure it was them? ...Ok. (sobs) ...You sure? You sure you wanna do that? I can go to D.C and do it if you and Danny don't want too...Don't worry about Rick, I'll tell him...I'll call Lainie and Johnny and the rest of the family too...Ok. Love you, sweetie. (choked up) Bye.

Ed hangs up the phone. Alan Michael stands up, troubled.

A-M: What is wrong?

Ed: (wiping away the tears) Meta, Bruce, Mike, and Trudy were killed in the plane crash on their way here.

A-M: (hysterical) What? No...I have to call my mom.

Ed: You can't. Hope was plane as well.

Alan Michael jumps up and is startled by this news as well.

A-M: Is she dead?

Ed: I don't know...her body is missing. They assume she may have been thrown from the plane and not survive also.

A-M: Oh God.

Alan Micheal drops to the floor.

CUT TO:

INT. OLIVIA'S PENTHOUSE - DAY

Olivia and Natalia sits on the couch waiting patiently as Emma gets dressed.

Olivia: Emma, come on. If we are going to make the cookout, you need to hurry up.

Emma (O.C.): Mom, I can't find anything.

Natalia (to Olivia): Don't worry. I'll go help her find something.

Olivia: Thanks, honey.

Olivia kisses Natalia. Natalia gets up and heads into Emma's room. The doorbell rings.

Olivia: I got it!

Olivia gets up and heads to the door. She opens it and Jeffery turns around to reveal himself.

Olivia: Hi, Jeffrey. What are you doing here?

Jeff: Can we talk?

Olivia: Ok. Come in.

Jeff enters. Olivia closes the door behind him.

Jeff: Nice pad.

Olivia: Thanks. Me and Natalia needed a change so we decided to move back into the penthouse now that its renovated.

Jeff: I see that. So are you going to do this with all the suites in the Beacon?

Olivia: Jeffrey, what is it?

Jeff: Can't an old friend just stop by and see how the renovation is going?

Olivia: Things are going fine but what is it you really want?

Jeff: Olivia--

Olivia: Jeffrey stop stall--

Jeff: (blurts) Olivia, Sam is dead!

And on Olivia's blank reaction,

CUT TO

EXT. WOODS - DAY

Lying in the river is a woman's body laving face down. All of a sudden, she turns over to reveal its Hope!

Her face and cut and battered from the plane crash.

Hope: (in a daze)...Father? Father, where are you?

As she drifts further down the river, we
