Mary walked into the house to see Brandi and Jinx at the table. She briefly thought of Marshall and Dante and wondered what she would have done if it had happened to Brandi. Yes she got on her nerves but she never wished she wasn't alive.

Walking to the table she caught Brandi off guard when she hugged her. Jinx's eyebrows shot up and both stared at Mary in shock.

"Not that I don't like hugs but what was that about?" Brandi asked suspiciously.

"Just because." Mary shrugged it off like it was no big deal.

"You're not sick are you?" Brandi had been totally caught off guard. "Are you and Marshall fighting still and where have you been all night?"

"The hospital with the real Marshall." Mary gave them a brief summary of what happened since it wasn't witness related. "I'll be staying with Marshall for a little while."

She had a new profound affection for her family that she was sure they would wear off quickly but in the mean time she'd appreciate it and be grateful for what she had.

Mary relieved Stan and took her spot next to Marshall who continued to sleep on and off throughout the day and night. It was during the night that he became most agitated in his sleep. Mary could tell when the nightmares started and talked to him softly while doing her best to sooth him through them. Her touch seemed to have the most effect; just rubbing her fingers over his hand seemed to settle him down some. It was the last thought she had as she drifted to sleep after midnight hands linked together with Marshall's.

Marshall woke with a start and could feel his heart racing; quickly looking around the room he spotted Mary asleep next to the bed and let out a sigh of relief. He was surprised the nightmares hadn't started sooner. Marshall noticed Mary's hand near his and gently placed his in hers before trying to go to sleep again; it helped having the physical contact for reassurance.

Eleanor handed Stan the results from the DNA test and he headed to the hospital to let Marshall know. Neither he nor Eleanor looked at the results as they felt it was unfair to do so without Marshall's okay. Stan promised Eleanor he would let her know later.

Stan smiled at the hospital door; Mary's head was on the bed near Marshall's hand and their hands were entwined with one another.

He cleared his throat and Mary's head shot up and looked towards the door. "Stan?"

Mary asked groggily.

Stan handed her a cup of coffee. "Here drink this."

Mary grabbed the coffee and looked towards Marshall. "Did the results come in?" Stan lifted the envelope. "What do they say?"

"I didn't look yet; I thought we should wait for Marshall before opening it." Stan stated firmly.

"I guess you're right; he's starting to have nightmares." Mary stated.

"That's to be expected; he did with the shootings also." Stan stated.

"Until now he was only shot once Stan." Mary reminded.

"Yours and his." Stan clarified.

"He never said anything." Mary wasn't sure if she should be offended or not.

"You had your own issues to deal with and didn't want to cause you to worry." Stan shrugged.

"He needs to stop putting everyone else first; it's not healthy." Mary complained.

"He's not deaf and is very much awake." Marshall noted causing both Stan and Mary to turn towards him.

"Doofus!" Mary exclaimed trying to cover her embarrassment at being caught.

"Right." Marshall answered sarcastically knowing what she was up to. "Are those the results?"

Stan nodded. "Are you ready for the answers?"

"Not really but I'm not sure I'll ever be so let's just get it over with." Marshall decided honesty was the best policy.

Mary squeezed his hand as Stan opened it. They both turned to look at him. He pulled out the paper and read it over.

"He wasn't your brother Marshall." Stan stated.

"Who was he?" Marshall questioned. "Did they run it against the database?"

Stan nodded. "His real name was Matthew Langley. He was kidnapped days after your brother was found."

"How did he look so much like Marshall?" Mary asked.

"I'll see what else I can find out; they arrested the Jenkins on murder charges and we can add kidnapping to that also." Stan noticed the tears pouring down Marshall's face. He indicated to Mary to look at Marshall as he moved to the other side to offer his support.

"Marshall?" Mary reached over and pulled him to her as Stan squeezed his hand in support.

Marshall pulled back when he managed to compose himself. "Sorry." He whispered his voice hoarse from the crying.

Mary gave him some water and Stan looked at him. "There is nothing to be sorry about; you've been through a lot."

"Stan, I need to know what they did to him." Marshall stated firmly. "I won't be able to let it go unless I do."

"Alright I'll see what I can do. Do you want me to call and tell your parents?" Stan asked hoping Marshall would let him do it.

"I'll call Dad and let him know." Marshall stated knowing his Dad would need to hear it first. He looked at Mary. "Why don't you go help him at the office? I need some time."

"Only if you promise to call me if you need anything." Mary didn't want to leave but since he asked she knew she had to go.

"I promise." Marshall said.

Stan and Mary entered the office and headed towards Eleanor who was on the phone and indicated to give her a minute. Stan had told her the results and she had given her FBI contact the information and what they needed to know.

Eleanor finally hung up and looked at Mary surprised to see her at the office. "How'd he take the news?"

"As well as can be expected; now he needs the rest of the story so he can put it behind him. He's calling his Dad to let him know what happened." Mary explained. "What did you find out?"

Eleanor indicated for them to take a seat. "Madeline and Rupert Jenkins were arrested last night on murder and kidnapping charges. They found evidence stored in the attic of their house plus the Jenkins assumed Dante had finished the job so they told the arresting officers everything and were mortified to know Marshall was still alive. Matthew Langley was taken when he was five as he was about the right size, shape, and build for Marshall and Dante Mann. He had the right eyes and hair color; they had Matthew's facial features altered in order to get the perfect match; they drugged him up so bad at the time he didn't have any recollection of the event. The couple had kept tabs and photos of Marshall and used them to make sure no more surgeries were needed for Matthew. They brainwashed the little boy into thinking he was Dante Mann and that his parents didn't care enough to keep looking for him. They told them they had preferred Marshall and didn't need another son that his death had been a bonus to them; and told him Marshall had taken his place by following in the footsteps of his father and relatives who all had become U.S. Marshals. The boy was raised to resent Marshall enough to want him killed. They did this for revenge because they blamed Marshall's father for Calvin's death. Calvin died in prison as the result of a fight he picked with an inmate and lost."

Mary let out a low whistle. "How do you come up with something that twisted and cruel especially to the children and their families?"

"Look how many lives were ruined." Eleanor added.

"Have the Langley's been informed off what happened to their son?" Stan asked.

"They were killed in a car crash last year." Eleanor stated sadly.

"In the grand scheme of things it might be a blessing in disguise for them." Mary said thinking of how Marshall reacted. "You imagine finding out the son you lost was found but killed; it's losing them twice."

Stan had to agree with that sentiment also. "Why don't you head back to the hospital? Marshall needs a friend right now." Mary nodded. "Do you want me to come with?"

"No, I can handle this one." Mary grabbed her things and left. "He's being released tomorrow; do you two want to come over tomorrow and we could have a dinner together at Marshall's house. Maybe having all of us around might help."

"That's a great plan Mary. Why don't I come over early and cook?" Eleanor offered remembering Marshall's comments about Mary's lack of culinary skills.

"Sounds good." Mary called out before the elevator doors closed
