Tom ran his fingers through his hair and checked his watch for the fifth time in the past five minutes. Tom sat back in his chair frustrated with not knowing any information about Judy's kidnapping. Penhall, noticing Tom's actions, walks over to his desk.
"Hey man, are you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just worried, that's all."
"We all are, but Judy's a cop, a tough cop at that." Penhall said resting his hand on Tom's shoulder. "She can handle herself."
"It's just that today in her apartment got me thinking about Amy again. What if Judy.."
"That won't happen! Believe me, everything will be fine."
"Think so?"
"Will we catch Greening? I don't know. Will he go back to prison? I don't know. But Judy will be ok, I guarantee."
Fuller walked out of his office with some news on Hoffs.
"Gentlemen, Hoffs was spotted at a gas station about ten miles from here."
"By who?" Ioki asked.
"By a gas station attendant. He saw a couple having an argument in front of the gas pumps and the woman began running. After the man caught her, he put her back into the car and drove away without paying for the gas. That's when the police were called."
"Did he mention any descriptions?" Hanson asked.
"Yeah," Fuller opened his manila folder. "The man was blond, tall and had on dirty jeans."
"Sounds like that asshole." Penhall added.
"The woman was black and had on a red top and a short jean skirt."
"We got him!" Hanson bolted.
"We don't have anything. Right now, all we know is he's still in the city. I put watches out at the airport, bus station and the Canadian border, just in case he decides to skip."
"What about water?" asked Ioki
"What does water have to do with anything?" Penhall asked.
"Last time he tried to leave the country on a boat. What if that's his plan this time too?"
"I bet that's what he has planned. Personally, I think he's going to make a run for it tonight." Fuller stated.
"We need to get to those docks now!" Hanson commanded.
"Before we jump the gun, we need to plan this out carefully. We still don't have any idea what part Hoffs plays in this and we can't put her in danger." Fuller said. "We only have one shot at this."
"I know Coach, but we need to do something other than sitting by the phone."
"Well, its still daylight out, I'm sure we have a couple of hours to think of something." Ioki added.
Fuller's phone rings and startles the officers. Fuller picks it up quickly.
"Boy, I hope that's more good news." Ioki says while trying to decipher Fuller's facial expressions.
"That was downtown. They found Greening's aide in his disappearing act." Fuller says hanging up the phone.
"Who says those boys downtown are slow?" Penhall cracks.
"He might have some info on where Greening has Hoffs." Hanson concluded.
"Let's find out, shall we." Fuller says grabbing his coat.
The Jumpstreet officers walk into the police station anxious to pump information out of this unknown accomplice. Approaching the room, the officers run into Lieutenant Ortega.
"Hi Lieutenant." Fuller greeted.
"Captain Fuller." The lieutenant said pulling the toothpick out of his mouth. "You must be here to interrogate Jonathan Stone."
"Tell me a little about him." Fuller insisted.
"Well, he has been working at the prison for two years and he's from New Orleans originally. He was caught by another guard accepting cash from an inmate, that's when the warden figured he helped Greening as well. We've been having a hard time getting him to tell us where Greening is."
"My guys will handle that. We need more information on the whereabouts of Greening because he has one of my officers."
"You can have a crack at it."
Fuller, Ioki, Hanson, and Penhall walk into the interrogation room to begin their torment. The so-called Greening helper was a thin, young man with dark eyes and light hair who looked like he hadn't slept in weeks. He made eye contact with Hanson and locked on them as Hanson leaned against the wall. Fuller stepped back and let his officers handle the questioning.
"Stone, is it?" Hanson questioned.
"What's it to you cop?" Stone argued back.
"Where's Greening?" Penhall stepped in.
"How the hell should I know where that whacko is?" Stone leaned back in his chair.
"Well, you helped him escape."
"That doesn't mean I know where he is."
"How much did he pay you to keep quiet?" Hanson asked putting his hand on the table and getting into Stone's face.
"More than you could possibly imagine. Now get out of my face."
Hanson grabbed Stone out of the chair and pinned him against the wall by his shirt.
"I want an answer now you piece of shit!"
"Hanson!" Fuller yelled out for Tom to ease up, but Tom was too angry to hear his call.
Hanson grabbed Stone's face squeezing his jaw uncontrollably.
"Get this guy off of me!" Stone cried out, but no one came to his rescue.
"Tell me!" Hanson demanded once again.
"Ok, ok." Stone surrendered. Hanson backed way and pulled out the chair for Stone to sit down.
"He paid me twenty grand to help him get out of the prison that night. I gave him keys to my car and an extra guard uniform, so he could get out unnoticed."
"Is that it?" Hanson asked.
"He mentioned meeting Parker at some diner tonight, but that's all."
"What diner and whose Parker?" Ioki asked.
"Parker helps with your exit."
"And the diner?"
"I don't know what diner, but I know where you can find Parker."
"If you're lying, I'll personally break every bone in your body and throw you back into that prison, but not as an employee." Penhall added hovering over Stone.
The officers walk outside of the room as Ortega and another officer walk in.
"Ok, guys we have another lead, but we need to make this quick because it's almost dark out." Fuller explained.
"Let's do this." Penhall exerted.
