Kate had a computer expert on her computer fifteen minutes after Carrie and Austin left. As the man worked, Kate and Sami stood menacingly over watching him. To him it looked like either woman was about to kick his ass if he even asked for a bathroom break. Fear of what the women might actually do kept him working until he had their answer, "I have the address."

Kate pulled the paper out of his hand.

Sami held the door and said, "Let's go."

Kate turned on her heels giving the man one more look of annoyance before she told Sami, "I'll call the police from the car."

Without looking at each other both women walked down the hall and to the elevator in synch. The man who was paid handsomely for his services watched from the door way and could think of no other explanation except, "Whoever messed with those two are going to be sorry."

Greta stayed on her computer since technically Lucas was still online. Eric sat next to her on the bed. But as the minutes passed and nothing new was on line Eric asked her, "Do you talk to Lucas a lot?"

Greta looked quizzically before answering, "We're friends. He never judged me because of my family."

Eric decided to massage her shoulders before she suddenly said, "What if telling him to get help was a stupid mistake. He's hurt."

Eric kept massaging her back and answered, "He's an adult and he's in medical school. Surely he wouldn't do something stupid."

Greta joked and said, "You mean other than marry Sami so they can reunite Carrie and Austin?"

Eric stopped what he was doing to her back and said shocked, "What?"

Greta looked confused at his shock and said, "Didn't you figure it out? Oh they love each other, but I figured Sami proposed to him for a scheme."

Eric told her, "She's pregnant, remember."

Greta let her eyes leave the computer screen as she turned to look at Eric before saying, "So I heard. Didn't they announce that while you were kidnapping me away from my wedding?"

Eric changed the subject, "You looked beautiful that day like a princess."

She laughed again and said, "Well I am a princess."

He leaned down to kiss her as he asked her, "Does her highness object if I..."

She put her arms around his waist and offered her lips and neck before saying, "No objections." He closed his eyes as he smiled right before kissing her.

Lucas held onto the wall as he forced himself to walk into the hallway. Looking down the steps made him dizzy, so he closed his eyes and let his hand on the banister guide the rest of his body. But about halfway down the staircase, he must have not have had enough blood reach his brain because he couldn't stand anymore. He knew from studying what was happening to him and he tried to sit down. He remembered Will and Sami before he went completely unconscious and fell down the stairs.

Carrie and Austin arrived in the small town where farmers stopped chasing a horse just to stare at Carrie. Carrie smiled, but told Austin through her teeth, "Don't leave me alone."

Before Austin could say anything, Carrie walked across the street and said in her most friendly tone, "Bonjour. Parlez vous anglais?"

One of the farmers answered, "A little."

Carrie smiled directly at him before saying, "We're looking for my brother- in-law. A blond woman kidnapped him."

Austin appeared beside her with photos. The farmer looked at the picture and said, "Oui. We saw this on the tele."

Another farmer said something in French that neither Austin nor Carrie understood. Finally the man talking earlier told them, "He says that an American connasse is staying at that house."

Austin looked a little lost as Carrie told them, "Thank you very much."

She pulled Austin across the street to head towards the house as Austin asked her, "What did he call the American?"

Carrie asked, "Did you ever come here to visit Billie? He called her a bitch."

Austin's hand tightened around Carrie's to stop her from entering the building for a minute. He then told Carrie, "I don't want you getting your hopes up that we'll find Lucas."

She answered him, "Austin. I want to see fate work out for Sami. If I can help reunite her and Lucas then there might be a chance that we'll stay close permanently."

He looked down and caught her gaze before he asked her, "We as in maybe you and I?"

Carrie had no clue what to say, but it didn't matter. Austin was going to kiss her. Her knees went weak. Her stomach started rumbling with excitement. Her eyes closed as she felt his breathe above hers. Her lips opened before his mouth reached hers. She dreamed of his lips on hers again and he was about to kiss her when suddenly someone rudely remarked, "Can't you two leave me the hell alone."

Austin pulled back, but he still held her. The confusion of Carrie's emotions finally melted enough for her to see the obvious. Nicole. Carrie suddenly hated her. She hadn't like her since she arrived, but it was now raging hate. Carrie left Austin's arms and stormed over to her.

Nicole met her gaze with her street look of 'bring it bitch.' But Nicole wasn't prepared for Carrie's most used blow, a smack right across the face that could bring a girl down. Nicole fell, but not before kicking Carrie down with her.

Carrie fell down and saw Nicole was about to hit her in the face. Carrie blocked and remembered the classes her father made her take. Instinctually remembering women kick and men usually punch so to shock whoever you are fighting do the opposite, Carrie punched Nicole in the stomach.

Nicole felt the pain but she held on to Carrie's hair and pulled as she kicked her way back into the fight.

Austin tried to stop the fight. He first tried to pull Carrie back, but she was so focused on Nicole that she struggled to throw another punch.

Carrie didn't see what she did until it already happened. She was aiming for Nicole, so how Austin appeared she had no idea. She also had no way of stopping herself from punching him just as Nicole scratched him from behind.

Carrie instantly stopped fighting and tried to comfort Austin. But Nicole saw it as her vantage moment where she tried to clock Carrie right in the nose. Austin saw what Nicole was about to do and he forcibly pulled Carrie into his chest and took the second punch. Carrie felt Austin's body react to the hit, and she pulled back. Carrie stood up and decked Nicole once more just as the police sirens blazed down the street towards them.

Austin stood up next to Carrie preparing to take full responsibility for what just happened here, when Kate and Sami stepped out of the lead car.

Kate gasped, "What happened?"

Sami's eyes focused in on Nicole on the ground and she started towards her. The police held her back, but Carrie told Sami, "I knocked her down, and I'd do it again."

Sami only then realized that Carrie looked like she was in a catfight. Sami never realized that her older sister might punch someone for her, and she couldn't help but feel proud. She couldn't say it aloud though and instead asked, "Where's Lucas?"

Nicole was still nursing her face from Carrie's blow when she said in triumph, "I'm still his wife, not you. And my word trumps even Kate's for his care."

Kate took a step towards Nicole but everyone from the cops to Austin stopped her. SO Kate took a deep breath before saying, "Go ahead Nic the Trick and try to tell a judge. I'll tell them how I paid you $5 million, how you whored around on him, and never played the dutiful wife until he tried to remarry Sami. We'll see if anyone believes you."

Sami only then realized that she had Kate's back. It was a strange moment of realization. Sami and Kate on the same side? Then Sami rationalized that they both hated Nicole and teamed up before so it wasn't so bad. She'd have Kate's back in this fight as long as everything returned to normal afterwards.

But all argument ceased when an ambulance arrived and a stretcher went into the building. Sami, Kate, Carrie and Austin all walked to the building but the police stopped them from getting too close. A moment later Lucas was wheeled out unconscious on the stretcher and the world stopped spinning.

Sami felt herself falling, but it was Kate that held her up as Kate asked, "Is he dead?"

The police man saw the look of family members in turmoil and he called someone over that spoke English. Kate couldn't repeat her question. Sami couldn't speak at all. Carrie took over and asked, "Is he going to live?"

The man told the group, "He's alive. They are trying to stop the bleeding in the ambulance."

Sami found her voice and demanded, "Take him to the hospital!"

The man replied, "Oui. As soon as he is stabilized."

No one told the group, but the ambulance suddenly took off. Carrie tried to tell Kate and Sami, "He must be stabilized now."

Kate and Sami both said, "I'm going to the hospital."

Austin told them, "I'm driving."

Neither Kate nor Sami argued as Carrie and Austin led them to the car. Everyone was silent because as they stood outside fighting Lucas was inside bleeding to death. So each one of them was taking it personally. Carrie thought she should have ignored Nicole. Austin thought he should have stopped the fight before it began. Kate thought she stood on the sidelines instead of rushing inside. Sami thought she should have ignored everyone and rushed into the building when she arrived.
