The team decided to escalate the pressure on Paul to get him to meet with his goons and connect him to the attack on Alicia's mother. Hardison, Parker and Winnie confronted Paul about his scam at his office. Winnie acted like a jilted lover, having found out that he was already moving on to his next target. Hardison, playing her lawyer laid out the case they were pursuing against him and all three walked out, but not before Parker planted a few bugs in the room and Winnie placed a button camera on his lapel.

Hardison went back to work at the brew pub getting Paul's financial information and moving his money to an account he set up. Once he recovered the money for Alicia's mother, he left an easy paper trail for the police to find and he texted Parker, while she, Eliot and Winnie were at the condo waiting for Paul's arrival.

"This could get tricky ladies, so no sudden movements, I will be hidden behind this door, just lead them to me, get down low and I'll do the rest." Eliot warned.

A few minutes later they heard a knock on the door. Paul was there with Maria and her associates. The men had guns pointed at the women as Paul proceeded to threaten them while Maria ransacked the room looking for any evidence. As planned Parker and Winnie slowly backed into position and Eliot leapt out, attacking the men, punching and kicking them into submission.

He disabled their guns, but he heard a pop. Maria fired a shot from a gun she had hidden. She and Paul ran out the door. He quickly checked his body, she had missed him. "Idiot." He snarled as he turned to check on the goons. "Hardison! Paul and Maria escaped, call the police." He called to him through his ear bud.

"Eliot," he heard a weak voice call out and she fell to the floor.

"Parker!" He ran to her side blood coming from her stomach. "No, no, no… Parker! Oh God, Winnie call an ambulance!"

"Parker you're going to be alright stay with me darling, no don't close your eyes, come on you are strong." "Eliot…" she put her blood stained hand to his face. He held her close applying pressure to the wound, "stay with me darling come on!"

"What is going on? Eliot, Eliot!" Hardison was frantically yelling in his ear. "Shut up man!" He took out his ear bud and flung it across the room.

She became limp and unconscious, Eliot whispered in her ear. "Please don't leave me Parker, please, oh God please…" tears steaming down his face.
