Felipe called over to Charlie, "Hey, don't mess her up too bad amigo. I want a turn after you." He rubbed the back of his head, "That crazy bitch knocked me out the other night, I owe her." Then he turned to Jack and whispered in his ear, "I'm going to fuck your woman, Jack, and make you watch."

Jack glowered at him, "You touch one hair on her head, and I swear that will be the last thing you ever do. That's your one and only warning."

Filipe punched Jack in the stomach again and laughed. "What do you think you are going to do to me?" He got his gun out, chambered a bullet and shoved the barrel into Jack's forehead. "You killed Juan, asshole. Give me one good reason I shouldn't shoot you right now."

Charlie yelled over at Felipe, "Uh, Felipe, boss said not to kill him yet. And keep it down, will ya, I'm gonna have a little fun with the FBI bitch now." Charlie put his gun in the holster and kneeled down next to Sam, his fetid breath in her face. "Don't fight me and I won't hurt you. Much." He gave her a wide grin, his eyes sparkling with glee at his new playtoy. Sam shuddered and tried to block him out of her mind, then turned her head back over toward Jack.

Jack never lost eye contact with Sam, silently reassuring her with his eyes while Filipe continued to use him as a punching bag. Then he nodded slightly at her and turned to Felipe with a large smile and a small laugh. Felipe was angry, "What's so funny, ese?"

"I was just thinking about the last person who tied me up in a chair." The smile faded. "I killed her." Jack planted his feet firmly on the ground.

Charlie began to unbutton Sam's overshirt, exposing the tank top she wore underneath.

Felipe stood in front of Jack and leaned in close to him, "You're dead."

As Sam watched Jack, she inched her leg up, getting it into position.

In one quick motion, Jack leaned forward and used the chair spindle that stuck up behind his head to punch Felipe in the eye. Sam waited for Jack to make his move, then she brought her knee up to Charlie's groin with as much force as she could. Both men howled in pain, Felipe grabbed his eye and fell to floor, while Charlie grabbed his crotch and fell on his side, pinning Sam's right leg under him.

Sam slipped the gun out of his holster, shot Charlie once in the back and tried to wiggle her leg free. In the meantime, Jack awkwardly got to his feet and picked the chair up with his body and fell on Felipe with all the force his beaten body could bear. The chair broke in several places, loosening the ropes that held Jack to the chair. Felipe moaned, but was rendered unconscious when the chair back hit his face. Blood poured from his broken nose.

Hearing the commotion inside, the two guards outside came rushing in with their guns drawn. Sam finally freed her leg and made her way to her knees, although her left hand was still attached to the shelving behind her. She took out the first guard through the door with two body shots as Jack fumbled to get the ropes loose enough to grab Felipe's gun. The second man fired back at Sam, using the first guard as a shield. His shot hit Sam in the chest, the force of which threw her body backwards. She cracked her head on the metal shelving behind her and crumpled unconscious to the floor.

Jack watched her body fall and screamed, "No!" He moved his hands enough to grab Felipe's discarded gun and emptied the clip into the second guard. "Sam?" He screamed her name, hoping she would sit up and argue with him. He finally removed all the ropes and scrambled to his feet, ignoring the searing pain in his body.

He dashed across the room, brushed the hair out of her face and tried to wake her. "Sam? Honey, wake up. Don't do this to me Samantha, please." He took off his shirt and used it to put pressure on the wound in her chest. He took her body in his arms and felt the sticky blood on the back of her head. He hugged her and rocked her back and forth, and pleaded with her, "Please no, not again. Sam, honey, come on. Don't leave me."

Seconds later, a team of CTU field agents came pouring through the door. Before they could even assess the situation, Jack yelled, "Get a medic in here NOW!"
