After a few hours of Solomon telling Tollan that he didn't know anything more about Monsieur Charoux than he had already told him, Solomon was taken back to the suite where the rest of the team was being held.

"Hey Dad, I guess you didn't know anything?" Nikko teased his dad after the goons left the room.

Solomon had to laugh. "Yeah, Tollan thinks we already knew something about Charoux that Paul may have told us."

Kate snorted. "He couldn't even give us good directions to the man's flat!"

Everyone stopped laughing abruptly when the door opened again.

One of the goons gestured to Kate. "Doctor Siminou, please come with us."

Kate looked at Solomon and Vincent for a minute, raised an eyebrow, smiled and then left in front of the guard.

Solomon waited until the door clicked shut. "Why would he want Kate?"

"Maybe Tollan wants to play with our minds for a bit. Kate realized this is the room we were held in ten years ago." Vincent showed Solomon the initials scratched into the armoire.

Solomon kicked the side of the bed. "Damn. How did she react?"

Vincent sat down on the bed. "She got a little emotional, but she held up well."

"Are you guys worried about her breaking down or something?" Nikko asked.

Solomon got a good look of the man his son was becoming. "Yeah, I'm worried about Kate. It took a long time for her to recover from Augustus. But I think a lot of that was her still trying to deal with Haley's death, and even her parents' deaths."

Vincent nodded as the monitor crackled to life.

The men watched as the goons pressed Kate into a chair in front of Tollan's desk.

"Do you know anything about your parents' car crash?"

Solomon and Vincent looked at each other, startled and confused.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Kate replied.

"Good girl, don't let him rattle you." Solomon coached his sister-in-law from a few floors away.

"Did you know that there were no bodies found in the car?" Tollan leaned back in his chair and.

"What!" Solomon shouted at the same time Kate did on the monitor.

"What do you mean by that?" Kate was almost out of her chair, leaning toward Tollan's desk.

"Your mother and father's bodies were not in the car when it crashed." Tollan smiled wickedly.

"And what does that have to do with the here and now?" Kate was confused and mad.

"Because you should know a few things about your beloved parents." A woman's voice came from somewhere behind Kate.

"That voice sounds familiar." Solomon looked at Vincent, suddenly nervous.

"And who are you?" Kate turned around as she asked the question.

"Kate, I would like you to meet my mother, Katherine Tollan."

The woman walked out of the shadows behind Kate.

"Oh, my God." Solomon was saved from falling over by Vincent and Nikko on either side,

"My mother's full name is Katherine Louise Grayson Tollan Cayce Tollan." Tollan sneered at Kate.

Vincent and Nikko both gasped.

"Katie, darling, aren't you going to greet me?" Katherine asked her daughter, honey dripping off her tongue.

Kate's hands were gripping the chair arms tightly. "My mother and father died in a car crash nearly twenty-five years ago."

"Darling, we were never even in that car."

The men in the suite could see that Kate had closed her eyes. "This is some sick joke you decided to play on us Tollan. Getting some lady who has a slight resemblance to my mother to pretend to be her is the lowest you have ever gone!"

Katherine sat on the edge of the desk and grabbed Kate's chin to get her attention. "Kate, you really must listen to your mother!"

Kate whipped her eyes open. "My mother died twenty-five years ago. So did my father. You are not her."

Tollan leaned back in his chair and chuckled. "I have to disagree with you, Kate. This woman you see is your birth mother, Haley's birth mother, and my birth mother."

"Oh that is just sickening!" Nikko was looking like he might be sick any moment.

Solomon looked at his son with surprise. "Don't like your uncle, boy?"

"If you are my mother, then where is my father?" Kate raised an eyebrow as she challenged her mother.

"Thank God I missed your teen years." Katherine smiled.

"Yeah, but I have plenty of stories," Solomon snapped at the monitor.

"Your father escaped from our custody quite some time ago. I am truly surprised that he hasn't contacted your or his old college buddies yet." Katherine had contempt in her voice when she referred to her husband's friends.

"Don't you dare talk about Alex or Paul that way! They've at least been there for me and Haley!" Kate was getting angry at Katherine.

Katherine brought her face down to Kate's. "And I suppose Vicky and Theresa were good surrogate mothers?"

"A lot better than you."

Katherine leaned back and looked down her nose at her younger daughter. "You are as much a fool as you father."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Let me spell this out for you. I was married before your father. I was still married to my husband when I 'married' Jonathan Cayce. I was sent undercover to marry you father to keep him busy and to keep him and his friends from pursuing the truth. Your sister was a ploy to cement his interest in me. You were insurance to keep him even busier. When you were twelve, I was told by my superiors here at Dorna to get out and to come back home. So I faked my death and your father was our prisoner for a number of years. Is this clear enough for you?"

Kate looked up at Katherine. "You are a complete bitch." Kate looked around her mother to look at Tollan. "Are we done here yet?"

Tollan was trying to smother a smile. "Not quite yet. There is the matter of your son."

Kate's fingers tightened on the chair arms. "What do you mean?"

"His death was not an accident." Tollan smiled smugly.

"What?" Vincent clenched his fists at the monitor as Solomon and Nikko restrained him.

"We wanted to hurt Vincent as much as he hurt us." Katherine laughed.

"You sadistic bitch! He wasn't even born yet!"

"And the harder he fell."

"Yes, it was quite some time before your husband and brother-in-law troubled us with their interference." Tollan leaned back.

"May I be excused from this hell of a family reunion?" Kate's exhaustion was evident in her voice.

Tollan gestured to one of his goons by the door. "Take Doctor Siminou back to the suite. Oh, and Kate? Welcome to the family, sis."

Kate heard Tollan's laugh echo in her ears as she was taken back to the suite.
