BEAUTY AND THE BEAST: TRACKDOWN
5: Spanish Rose
Vincent: This is where the wealthy and the powerful rule
It is her world, a world apart from mine
Her Name is Catherine. From the moment I saw her, she captured my heart, with her beauty, her warmth, and her courage.
I knew then, as I know now, she would change my life...forever!
Catherine: He comes from a secret place, far below the city streets
Hiding his face from strangers, safe from hate and harm
He brought me there to save my life
And now, wherever I go, he is with me, in spirit
For we have a bond, stronger than friendship or love,
And although we cannot be together, we will never, ever, be apart.
"Anyone else wanna come back here when this business with Gabriel is taken care of?" Piper Halliwell asked her fellow travelers. She, sisters Prue and Phoebe, Megan Wheeler, and J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter were in Spain…Madrid, to be exact.
Prue agreed. "I think Dick & I are coming here when we're finished with this. For now, however, let's get back to business…trashing the rest of Gabriel's holdings."
"Time Force is joining us here. They can help us dig up more of Gabriel's past…and anything else rotten he's been involved in." Megan sighed, looking at the magnificent city around her. At this point, 6 colored flashes of light signal the arrival of the Time Force Rangers.
Eric Meyers, the Quantum Ranger, is in awe of his surroundings. "Man, this place is amazing! Did you guys know that Madrid houses the headquarters of the World Tourism Organization , and that it belongs to the United Nations Organization, the SEGIB, the Organization of Ibero-American States, and the Public Interest Oversight Board, along with hosting major international institutions regulators of Spanish: the Standing Committee of the Association of Spanish Language Academies, headquarters of the Royal Spanish Academy, the Cervantes Institute and the Foundation of Urgent Spanish?"
Jen Cassidy, the Pink Time Force Ranger, was blown away…not by what she had just heard, but that Eric was the one who said it. Jen then added "Madrid also organizes fairs such as FITUR, ARCO, SIMO TCI and the Cibeles Madrid Fashion Week."
J'onn looked at the 2 Time Force Rangers and smiled, saying "There is more to this amazing country than what you both have stated. There are several theories regarding the origin of the name "Madrid". According to legend Madrid was founded by Ocno Bianor, the son of King Tyrrhenius of Tuscany and Mantua, and was named "Metragirta" or "Mantua Carpetana". Others contend that the original name of the city was "Ursaria", the land of bears in Latin, because of the many bears that were to be found in the nearby forests, which, together with the strawberry tree, have been the emblem of the city from the Middle Ages. Nevertheless, it is now commonly believed that the origin of the current name of the city comes from the 2nd century BC. The Roman Empire established a settlement on the banks of the Manzanares river. The name of this first village was "Matrice", a reference to the river that crossed the settlement. Following the invasions carried out by the Germanic Sueves and Vandals, as well as the Sarmatic Alans during the 5th century AD, the Roman Empire no longer had the military presence required to defend its territories on the Iberian Peninsula, and as a consequence, these territories were soon occupied by the Vandals, who were in turn dispelled by the Visigoths, who then ruled Hispania in the name of the Roman emperor, also taking control of "Matrice". In the 8th century, the Islamic conquest of the Iberian Peninsula saw the name changed to "Mayrit", from the Arabic term Mayra, referencing water as a 'tree' or 'giver of life' and the Ibero-Roman suffix it that means 'place'. The modern "Madrid" evolved from the Mozarabic "Matrit", which is still in the Madrilenian gentilic."
Megan, not one to care about romantic history, snapped "Getting back to why we're here…"
"Gabriel still has holdings and resources here. We're going to find them and turn them over to the proper authorities…before any of his surviving henchmen are able to get a hold of them." Lucas Kendall, the Blue Time Force Ranger, sighed.
Phoebe Halliwell looked over the group and then got a strange look on her face…she was having a vision of the future…and who was causing the city grief. "An…Enrique Allandro has gathered some of Madrid's worst leg breakers…along with several 'protection' racketeeers to bend the city's businessmen to his will, intending to take over where Gabriel left off."
Katie Walker, the Yellow Time Force Ranger, asked "What now?"
A flash of teleportation signaled the arrival of the Wild Force Rangers. Merrick Balitou, the Lunar Wolf Ranger, looked around in awe. "This is incredible…I can't believe that some group of fiends want to destroy this country."
Cole Evans, the Blazing Lion Ranger, looked at him and stated "That's why we're here…to stop these creeps before they get a chance. We're also getting some help from NCIS…the L.A. department."
Eric smiled at this. "Maybe we'll cut this fight with the bad guys short and get to enjoy this city." He replied.
Wes chuckled and said "Eric Meyers a romantic. Who would've thought."
A voice behind them said "I know the feeling." The heroes turned to see four newcomers walk up to them. "G. Callen." The man who spoke to Wes had then introduced himself.
The introductions continued. A large, muscular African American then said "Sam Hanna."
"Kensi Blye." A rather attractive shapely, but well toned brunette smiled, then continued "And the slack jawed moondog over there is Marty Deeks."
"We're working with the World's Greatest Super Heroes. How can you act like this is an everyday thing?" Deeks asked in amazement.
Megan looked at him and spoke "I had the same reaction. Believe me, over time, it fades. Have you learned anything about Allandro and his organization?"
"Not as much as we hoped." Hanna told them. He was then interrupted by a beeping sound. Both Nell Jones & Eric Beale were talking over the comm. "Batman authorized the use of the slideways for us during this case. Head back to base, we've just dug up some info you guys can use on this…Allandro person.
Within minutes, the team were in the LA HQ for the Los Angeles branch for NCIS. Lucas Kendall and Alyssa Enrille looked around. "Understated, low key…I like it!" Alyssa smiled.
Max Cooper had a different take. "Too bland for my tastes."
Eric Beale blows a whistle from the balcony to the rest of the team and their guests. "All hands on deck!"
Cole looks at him and snaps "REALLY? Are you completely insane?"
Callen, who obviously shares Cole's opinion, turns to Hetty, and asks "You gave him a whistle?"
Hetty quickly replies "Oh, do I look as if I have gone daft? I'd sooner give a chain saw to a spider monkey. At least I took his Segway away. I'll speak to Mr. Beale."
Sam then adds "Sooner than later, okay. Because the next time he toots that thing, he won't be using his lips."
J'onn chuckles to himself as they head for the briefing room.
Once in their center ops room, Nell began to fill everyone in on Allandro and Renner's connection to Gabriel. "Both were major league lieutenants and had a lot of power in Gabriel's organization. It has been said that either of them could have taken over in the event of his death. Both now seem to be in a power grab now."
"I don't need to remind everyone how important this is to knock out the remnants of Gabriel's cobal. If this isn't taken care of, anyone with connections to Gabriel could easily take over…and plunge all connected into an even worse organization." Hetty reminded everyone.
"We should return to Madrid and split into teams. Jen, Taylor, Paige, you're with me and the turkey over here." Kensi spoke, referring to Deeks.
"In that case, Wes, Merrick, Lucas, Katie, the Charmed Ones, & I will go with Callen & Sam." Eric told the group.
"Sounds fine with me. I could use a break from doom & gloom over here." Sam sighed, referring to Callen.
"Thanks loads."
Well, Cole, Danny, Max, Trip, and I will head back to Madrid for now." J'onn told everyone.
Sam then asked "What are the chances this isn't a suicide he did?"
Beale then spoke "I'd say about zero percent."
Lucas looked at the NCIS tech agent. "What do you know that we don't?"
Beale got this look then said "Mmmmm.. The words to every TV theme song, anyone wanna hear?"
"Don't. Just…don't" Wes sighed, then added "Let's go back to Madrid.
At the house of Sebastian Renner, Jen, Paige, Taylor, and Deeks found the door wide open and the main room a total mess. "Anyone get the name of his housekeeper?" Paige sarcastically smirked.
"Looks like Renner made a few people angry." Taylor replied, when…
"Federal agents! Don't move!"
Deeks shouted "LAPD!"
Jen looked at Deeks and quickly added "Out of your jurisdiction."
"But not out of the JLA's" Taylor quickly added.
French Intelligence Operative then yelled "NSA!"
Jen shouted "Time Force!"
Taylor quickly added "Wild Force!"
Kensi yelled "NCIS!"
Deeks then snapped " E!"
Jen, Paige, Taylor, and Kensi all looked at Deeks. "REALLY?!" Taylor shouted.
The French Intelligence Operative looked at the five and asked "What are you doing here?"
"This is our case." Jen quickly snapped.
The Operative continued "Sebastian Renner and Enrique Allandro were foreign nationals with information considered a threat to the United States of America."
Kensi agreed with Jen and added "Still our case."
"We don't have to be adversaries, after all we are on the same side. Perhaps we can work together. Have you found anything that might be..." That was as far as he had gotten, because he was soon kicked in the gonads by Kensi.
Jen looked at this in admiration and said one word: "AWESOME!"
Taylor added "Wish I'd done that." Paige grinned in admiration.
Deeks then screams "WHOA!"
Kensi then puts her knee into the guy's face knocking him unconscious and Jen fights with the guy's partner and wins by body slamming him into a table leaving the partner unconscious. Deeks is screaming "What are you two doing? You heard the guy! We're on the same side!"
Paige looks at him and replies "Kensi's right, we're pretty sure they're not NSA."
Deeks sighs "Pretty sure? Because she teed off on him like she were kicking a field goal!"
Kensi snaps "Deeks! I've got a hunch they're foreign operatives, ok?"
Deeks is still freaking out "A hunch! You don't kick a guy in his junk on a hunch. Geez! Sometimes I don't even know you! Who does that?"
Taylor grinned. "Me, for one."
"Me, too." Paige added.
"Three for three." Jen finished.
"Well, that makes me feel WAY better." Deeks sighed.
"Let's just get him back to L.A., and the interrogation room." Kensi sighed.
Still in Madrid, J'onn and Cole were looking around the Metropolitan area of Madrid. "The Madrid metropolitan area comprises the city of Madrid and forty surrounding municipalities. It has a population of slightly more than 6.271 million people and covers an area of 17,798 sq mi, making it the largest metropolitan area in Spain and the third largest in the European Union. Doesn't that scare anyone else here?" Cole asked.
"A bit. Mainly, what scares me is that Allandro would most likely hide in one of Madrid's many churches. You see, Madrid has a considerable number of Catholic churches, some of them are among the most important Spanish religious artworks. In fact, the oldest church that survives today is San Nicolás de los Servitas, whose oldest item is the bell tower, in Mudéjar style. The next oldest temple is San Pedro el Real, with its high brick tower." Danny told everyone.
The group were soon at St. Jerome Church, a gothic church next to the El Prado Museum. Max informed the team "The Catholic Monarchs ordered its construction in the 15th century, as part of a vanished monastery. The monastery's cloister is preserved. It has recently been renovated by Rafael Moneo, with the goal to house the neoclassical collection of El Prado Museum, and also sculptures by Leone Leoni and Pompeo Leoni. Given Allandro's views on religion, however, it wouldn't surprise me he'd try and hide out here."
While waiting, Cole told everyone "The Bishop Chapel is a gothic chapel which was built in the 16th century by order of the Bishop of Plasencia, Gutierre de Vargas. It was originally built to house the remains of Saint Isidore, Madrid's patron saint for Laborers, but it was used as the Vargas family mausoleum. Inside are the altairpiece and the tombs of the Vargas family, which were the work of Francisco Giralte, a disciple of Alonso Berruguete. They are considered masterpieces of Spanish Renaissance sculpture."
Cole then added "St. Anthony Church is a pretty 17th-century church which was originally part of a Portuguese hospital. Subsequently it was donated to the Germans living in the city. The interior of the church has been recently restored. It has some beautiful frescoes painted by Luca Giordano, Francisco Carreño and Francisco Rizi. The frescoes represent some kings of Spain, Hungary, France, Germany and Bohemia. They all sit looking at the paintings in the vault, which represent the life of Saint Anthony of Padua. By the way, the Royal Chapel of St. Anthony of La Florida is sometimes named the "Goya's Sistine Chapel". The chapel was built on orders of King Charles IV of Spain, who also commissioned the frescoes by Goya. These were completed over a six-month period in 1798. The frescoes portray miracles by Saint Anthony of Padua, including one which occurred in Lisbon, but which the painter has relocated to Madrid. On every 13 June, the chapel becomes the site of a lively pilgrimage in which young unwed women come to pray to St. Anthony and to ask for a partner."
"I don't think she wanted a partner…or anything legal." Danny pointed out a woman who saw them and started running the other way.
J'onn saw her and started to give chase. "Miss…STOP!"
"I don't think she wants to listen." Max shouted.
She should have, for she ran right into the path of a bus…before anyone could do anything about it. Cole snarled "DAMN! You can bet Allandro is close by watching every bit of this! Guys…I want this son of a bitch!"
Danny & Max looked at J'onn. "When he gets like this…not good." Max sighs.
"Let's take the slideways back to HQ." J'onn finished
Danny says "Can we try our hand at getting info from our fake agents?"
Deeks looked at the others as they came back and said "Just uh...don't let either Kensi, Taylor, Paige, or Jen interrogate them."
Max got this horrified look on his face. "Jen…you didn't?"
Jen grinned and said sheepishly "I wish…Kensi did."
Eric Meyers grinned as Callen asked "Why is that?"
Deeks sighed, then told everyone "Well, 'cause the guy on the right, she kicked him right in the nom de plumes."
Sam shouted "No!"
The guys gasped, as J'onn looked at Kensi and asked "You didn't?"
Taylor grins and says "Wish they had saved something for me."
Deeks looks at Taylor and replies "Well, I'm glad they didn't! Guy didn't even have his weapon out!"
J'onn sighs "Really?"
Kensi sheepishly says "We..."
Deeks finishes "Uh huh. right in the cul-de-sac. Kicked him so hard it gave me a stomach ache!"
Kensi snaps "So what, it would have been better if I had pistol whipped him across the face?"
Every male in the room shouts "Yes!"
"Men! Alyssa, you and Nell find anything out?" Taylor asks.
"Yeah, the girl who got nailed by that bus was Allandro's girlfriend. She was Amelia Renner, Sebastian's sister…however, there was no love lost between the siblings…and her rap sheet is almost as long as Allandro's." Nell revealed.
"Yeah, kidnapping, extortion, assault, and at least 6 other felonies…this girl was no angel." Alyssa finished.
"Where's Wes?" Jen asks.
He's with Callen, Sam, and his team. They're checking out Renner's place in Madrid." Danny says.
At that point, the team in question was back in Spain, heading towards Renner's home. For some reason, Callen looked at Sam and asked "You weren't kidding when you told Wes you really have a GSA class six safe in your den?"
Sam smiled and added "Told you, I have to keep my valuables safe."
Callen laughed when Wes asked "What valuables?"
"Long story." Callen sighed
Sam returned the laugh and replied "I have a mint condition Patrick Ewing rookie card, a football signed by the 1986 New York Giants and the entire run of the Silver Surfer comic book series. Plus, a couple of tickets for the Lakers-Nicks tomorrow night. And they're both spoken for."
Eric looked at Sam. "Silver Surfer? The entire run? REALLY?"
Wes looked at his partner. "You're kidding?"
Piper looked at Wes with sympathy. "Just don't get Phoebe started on her Barbie collection." She whispered.
The youngest Halliwell looked at everyone. "WHAT?!"
Callen snickered, then asked Sam "What else?"
Sam looked at him and frowned "What do you mean, what else? Why does there have to be a 'what else'?"
Callen answered "Because that was way too easy. And when Sam laughs, Callen adds "And because that is your 'I'm hiding something' laugh."
Sam sighs and says patiently "There is nothing else." Wes looks sympathetically at Sam in reply, mouthing "I have the same relationship with my partner."
Callen frowns "There is definitely something else."
Wes looks at Sam and speaks "Exactly the same." They are pulling up in front of a house that belongs to one of Allandro's men. "Gentlemen, we're here."
Callen is surprised by the simplicity of the place. "That can't be it."
Sam then said "Conversation's over."
Callen looked at Prue and asked "Do you think this is a Navy Seals thing?"
Overhearing, Sam shouts "I'll show you a Navy Seals thing!" as they get out of the car.
Prue gets this look on her face. "Definitely evil has been brewing here. Plans to put a synthetic drug to cripple Madrid…and basically destroy the city…then all of Spain."
"Needless to say, we're in agreement here. Time to go to work, some of Renner's men are here." Eric spoke up, just as several men with hidden guns walked out. "Can we help you?" one of them sarcastically asked.
Merrick frowned and snapped back "We don't want the hired help, we want your bitch boss."
"He's not available, make an appointment."
"We don't have time for this." Wes frowned, then slugged the henchman who told them to make the appointment.
Another one growled "Why did you have to go and do that?"
"'Cause your boss is trying to trash all of Spain…not that any of you give a damn about it." Katie snapped back.
"So?"
That did it. The team went to work, each one taking on one or two of the henchmen, as a figure sneaks out a side entrance. "Dibs." Wes smiled, and ran after the man, who turned out to be Sebastian Renner. "STOP!"
Renner kept running, as Wes thought to himself –Man, I hate jackrabbits. Why do they always try and run?-
Renner, however, ran straight into Sam's waiting fist. "Moron." Sam spoke up.
Wes looked at the unconscious man, saying "You could have saved a piece of him for me."
Sam sighs as Renner is handcuffed and thrown into the slideways to the interrogation room, and Callen snickers "I'm waiting."
"I have to admit, so am I" Prue quickly confesses. Sam then tells everyone "I have a Michael Jackson glove, from the Bad tour in '87. He threw it out in the front row of the Madison Square Garden show."
Wes, Eric, Prue, & Piper gasp in awe. Phoebe grins, but Callen frowns and asks "One of those white gloves?"
"You're kidding. He was the King of Pop, Callen." Prue says.
Callen then replies "Yeah. With the sequins?"
Piper, Eric, and Sam all say with emphasis on each word "The. King. Of. Pop."
Callen still frowns as he asks "Why was it just one glove and not two?"
"If you have to ask, you just don't get it." Wes says for everyone.
In L.A., in the interrogation room, known as the Boatroom, after the others tell them they have Renner, Kensi turns to the fake FBI agent and smirks "We got your boss, and guess what? He's about to roll over you clowns…so do yourselves a favor and tell us what we want to know. What was Gabriel planning in Madrid?"
"BITE ME, YOU STUPID BITCH!" the agent snapped.
Hetty, who was watching from a 2-way mirror, sighed to herself, and looked at Max, adding "He really shouldn't have said that.
Max found out why, as Kensi snatched him, slammed him into the wall, kicked him there again, and slammed his head into the table for good measure, just as Taylor walked in with a very sharp knife. "You know, you really shouldn't piss us off like that. Your bosses are trying to kill an entire population of a country, and don't give a damn about anything else. You want to change your mind now?" Taylor asked.
Panic is now in his eyes, as Taylor looks like she is about to leave him with Kensi. "ALL RIGHT, JUST DON'T LEAVE ME WITH THIS CRAZY BITCH!"
Kensi then slams his head into the table for good measure, saying with each hit "Don't…call…me…a…crazy…bitch!"
Taylor walks out, smirking to herself –Why do they insist on doing it the hard way?-
A short time later, Kensi walked out of the Boatroom and said, "He spilled. But I'm not sure if I believe it. He claims all this was only part of what Allandro was planning. It was all a cover for his real scheme: He was trying to track down a Tibetan monk who supposedly has the ability to halt aging."
Callen, Sam, and Wes then walked in as Callen said, "Renner told us the same thing. But, I'm not sure I believe it either."
Wes said, "Hey, with everything I've seen and been through with Time Force, anything's possible."
"But we gotta move fast," said Sam. "Renner says Allandro plans to head out tonight."
"So, what are we waiting for?" asked Eric M. "Let's nail this SOB!"
"But first things first," said Megan. "ANGEL POWER!"
"Time for Time Force!"
"QUANTUM POWER!"
"WILD ACCESS!"
"Let's go," said Cole. "We haven't a moment to lose."
Enrique Allandro was heading for his private jet when his home was suddenly broken into! "NCIS! You're under arrest!" yelled Callen
"Oh, no, you don't!" cried Allandro defiantly. "You're not getting me that easily! I will learn the secret to immortality and I will finish what Gabriel started! Get them all!" His henchmen began firing machine guns at the heroes, but they were able to take cover. Prue responded by using her telekineis to disarm them and take their weapons away. Piper then caused several of them to be frozen in place, allowing Time Force and some of the NCIS crew to take them down with minimal resistance. The rest were enveloped in a mist by Phoebe, allowing Wild Force and the rest of the NCIS crew to put them down.
Allandro looked shocked at how easily his men were taken out of the fight. "Any last words?" asked Jen.
"You think I wasn't prepared to meet you freaks?" asked a desperate Allandro. Putties, Tengas, and Putrids showed up and immediately began fighting the heroes, giving Allandro an opportunity to run for it.
"He's getting away!" yelled Deeks as he fired upon the enemy footsoldiers.
"I can stop him," said Martian Manhunter as he slammed to Tengas into each other. "Can you handle things without me?"
"Go!" cried Megan. "We'll cover you!" She then shot a burst of light, blinding the footsoldiers and allowing the others to put more of the down. Martian Manhunter then made himself intangible as he flew through the roof.
Allandro was manning the controls of his private jet as he took off, desperate to get away. Once he reached altitude, he put the jet on auto-pilot before grabbing a flame thrower. "Come and get me, you green Martian freak."
Martian Manhunter flew towards the jet, going through the bottom and coming face-to-face with Allandro. "This is the end of the line, Mr. Allandro."
"Yes, it is. For you!" He then shot the flame thrower, but J'onn was able to go back through the bottom of the jet. He came back up behind Allandro, prompting him to turn around in anticipation. "BURN IN HELL, MARTIAN SCUM!" He fired again, but J'onn went through the bottom of the jet again…allowing the flame to damage the controls!
With the controls burning, the jet began to descend, causing Allandro to drop the flame thrower. "No. NO!" cried Allandro as he tried fruitlessly to regain control of the craft.
Martian Manhunter came back up through the floor, grabbed Allandro from behind and pulled him away from the controls. He then sent out a telepathic message. Everyone, I have Allandro, but his jet is heading for the city and is burning up. The controls are damaged and I can't stop the jet from crashing due to the fire. I need help!
The other heroes had all gotten the message, hearing J'onn's voice in their heads. Luckily, they had just stopped the foot soldiers as Megan asked, "Did everyone get that?"
"I think so," said Paige. "But we'd better hurry." With that, the heroes hurried out of the house.
As the jet began to dive, Allandro yelled, "YOU KILLED US BOTH, YOU GREEN-FACED FREAK! I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY!"
"Quite the contrary," said J'onn calmly. "Far from it." He then made himself intangible again, allowing both himself and Allandro to go through the jet as it descended. "Consider yourself lucky that part of the jet wasn't burning. Otherwise, we'd both be burned to a crisp right now."
"Perhaps," said Allandro with a smirk. "But you're about to be held responsible for slaughtering who knows how many people when my jet crashes into the middle of Madrid."
To Allandro's surprise, however, the Martian actually smirked back. "I would not be so certain of that." He pointed down and Allandro could only watch in disbelief as the Quantasaurus Rex showed up and caught the jet before it could crash into the city. It then put the jet down in a remote part of the city where no one would be in danger. Taylor and Piper were in Taylor's Eagle Zord as it swooped down, allowing Piper to jump out and extinguish the fire.
Martian Manhunter landed as he kept Callen restrained. The other heroes showed up a short time later as Callen and Sam lead the way. Callen said, "Enrique Allandro, you have a lot to answer for."
Allandro and Renner were quickly booked and processed. "I'll contact Steed in London and let them know what's coming their way." J'onn told them.
"That's good for them to know. I have a feeling that whatever Catherine discovered, Gabriel obviously felt it was worth killing to keep secret." Callen finished.
Piper giggled as she changed the subject, stating "Sam snapped You don't have a TV, you don't read the newspaper, you clearly don't spend any time getting ready."
Callen turned to everyone and said back "Maybe I was working out."
Phoebe sighed and responded "Really. Sam said that you don't work out."
Callen told her "I run."
Sam snapped back "Yeah, when people are shooting at us!"
Callen turned and frowned "You know what? I slept in."
Sam looked surprised. "With who? You barely sleep."
Callen told everyone "There's nobody."
Sam frowned again and said "Come on, I think it would be great for you to be in a relationship." This brought giggles from Prue, Piper, and Phoebe.
A clearly frustrated Callen snapped "Sam, how many times do we have this conversation- you're my partner not my mother."
Sam then makes an older woman's voice, saying "I just want you to be happy and find a good girl." This brought laughs from everyone else there.
"Ok, let's get out of here and have a little fun." Katie suggests.
"Sounds good to me. How about Disneyland?" Phoebe asks.
Kensi frowns and says "I hate Disneyland."
Piper grins and says "You too? Thank God, I thought it was just me."
Prue quickly adds "Don't worry, the only one who likes Disneyland is Phoebe."
"No taste." Phoebe sighs.
Sam walks in just as Callen announces "Prue, Piper and Kensi hate Disneyland."
"They're not the only ones." Cole quickly snaps.
"You're kidding? The happiest place on earth." Max responds in surprise.
"Happiest Place On Earth my ass!" Jen speaks up.
"Me, I'm just a little too old for Disneyland. Why do you hate it?" Lucas asks.
Kensi tells everyone "I have issues with grown men in furry costumes."
Eric M. asks "Should we ask?"
Taylor looks at him and replies "Somehow, I don't think we should."
Sam teases "Unless it's Thursday night?"
Trip asks "What are we talking about?"
Deeks tells everyone "Quality time with the team."
Callen then adds "Apparently it's been too long since we hung out unless there's a corpse involved."
Prue speaks up "In our case, a warlock."
"In the case of Time Force and our team, monsters." Cole adds.
Kensi gets an idea. "Cowboy bar on Sunset?"
"With the mechanical bull?" Katie asks.
Kensi is joined by Wes, Lucas, Jen, Cole, Taylor, Max, Alyssa, Paige, Merrick, Danny, Piper, Prue, and Phoebe as they all shout "Yeah!"
Callen shouts out "No! Hetty plus mechanical bull plus tequila shots equals bar fight. Trust me I've been there."
Wes looks at Callen in surprise. "Hetty? What does she have to do with mechanical bulls, tequila shots and bar fights?"
J'onn came in with Hetty just then, and she replied "The less you know, Mr. Collins, the better. Besides, Martian Manhunter and I have some catching up to do. You can all still go."
"Provided we put Taylor, Jen, and Kensi on leashes." Deeks joked.
Cole made the sound of a bomb dropping just as Sam, Callen, Wes, Danny, Max, Merrick, Lucas, Eric M., and Trip stepped away from Deeks. Eric B. was already far away from him just as the three women in question shouted "WHAT?!"
Deeks realizes the potentially fatal mistake he just made and quickly tries to backpedal "Um, ah, I was just…" then runs right into Katie and Alyssa. "Don't come near us either." Alyssa snaps.
J'onn sighs as Hetty speaks "A word of advice, Mr. Deeks…RUN!"
On a plane winging towards France, Lorelei is upset. Hoping to try and get the remnants of Gabriel's organization to use against Luthor, she is upset to find the heroes beating her to the punch. –Not this time.- she swears to herself.
