"I have to talk to Mary." Danny declared, walking towards Ed's office.
"Danny, are you sure?" Ed followed him.
"I'd know that creep anywhere." Danny threw the door open and stomped up the stairs. "Mary!" He called. She was curled up in Ed's chair, crying, Gillian next to her, whispering calm words in her ear. Mary looked up at the sound of Danny's voice.
"It's him, isn't it Danny? It's my father. He took my baby."
Danny knelt down beside her. "It looks like it. I'm so sorry, Mary. It's my fault."
"What do you mean?" Luis asked.
Ed shushed him, then motioned Luis and Gillian out of the room. Danny and Mary didn't even notice.
"I'm sorry, Mary." Danny repeated, looking at the floor.
Mary lifted his head to meet her eyes. "It's not your fault. It's mine. I knew I shouldn't have but I did it anyway."
"No, if I hadn't...if I..." his voice broke "...hadn't threatened him last time. I told him if I ever saw him again, I'd kill him. Just like when we were sixteen, except this time I must have really intimidated him."
Mary hugged him tightly, "No, I told his wife about what he used to do to me. She probably left him and now he's getting back at me. He took my baby away."
Ed came back inside. "I hate to interrupt but we need to find this guy."
Mary wiped her eyes. "Of course, Ed. What do you need me to do?"
"Well, I hate to ask but we need you to confirm it's really your father. Then if either of you has any information on where we might find him..."
"Yeah Ed, we'll be right down." Danny helped Mary to her feet and they joined the others downstairs. Mary stared at the picture of the man who had taken her child.
"It's him." She declared.
"I thought your dad left town years ago." Luis mentioned quietly.
"He did." Danny replied. "But he was back here a little over a year ago trying to patch things up. Mary and I told him to leave us alone."
"He told us he'd remarried," Mary added, "with two little girls. I called his wife and told her the truth about him. I guess she left him."
"Revenge." Mike nodded.
"Do you still have her number?" Luis asked.
Mary nodded, pulling out her organizer. "Do you think she'd know where he is?"
"She might. And we'll get his picture out immediately. Everyone will be looking for him. We'll find her."
"Thank you Luis." Danny wrapped his arm around Mary's shoulder as she rested her head on his.
Ed cleared his throat. "Why don't you two go into the conference room? We'll come get Danny when we need him."
