"What are you looking for now?" Fred asks Nash as he clicked on Todd's name. "I knew it, I knew that had to be him," Nash says as Todd's picture came up. "Wait, you know Todd Manning?" Fred asks.
"Yeah, I ran into him at a restaurant. Well actually, my fist ran into him; then I had him arrested for trying to steal a lady's purse which he didn't do," Nash says as he turns to look at Fred. "Tell me you're joking?" Fred said.
"Look, I realize it might not have been the smartest move on my part," Nash says.
"Smartest move! Smartest move? Nash, why in the world would you do that to Todd Manning?" Fred shouts.
"Because he was after Tess for some reason and she said if he catches her, that I would never see her again, and I was not going to just let him get her and take her away from me, which I'm beginning to think he might have," Nash says.
"Ok, I get the helping the girl, but dude, this character is not someone you want to mess with, I promise you," Frec said.
"What do you know about him?" Nash asks.
"I know he's been in jail a lot! And he and his college buddies were convicted of raping a girl back in college, and then instead of going to jail, he went on the run and stalked his lawyer for him being convicted, and that's just the beginning of it." Fred said.
"Now you see why I wanted to keep Tess safe from him!" Nash says.
"I hope this girl is worth it," Fred says.
"Oh, she's worth it, and then some." Nash says as he goes back to the computer and gets driving directions to Llanview. He quickly prints them off. "Wait, you're not going there, are you?" Fred asks.
"I have to, I have to find her Fred," Nash says.
"Dude, that's crazy, she's just some --" Fred starts to say. "She's my life, my Tess and I'm not giving her up without a fight!" Nash says.
"Ok, but how are you going to get there?" Fred asks.
"Well, I was hoping…" Nash says as he starts to smile as he looks at his friend. "Oh no, no, no, no I told you that was a one time deal," Fred says.
"Listen, let me borrow your car one more time and I'll never ask you for anything ever again," Nash says.
"I can't believe I'm doing this," Fred says as he gets his keys out. "Dude, I owe you big time," Nash says as he picks Fred up in a bear hug. "Ok you can borrow my car, but I'm going with you!" Fred says as he is put back down on the ground. "So when can you be ready to leave?" Nash asks.
"Now, you want to leave now?" Fred asks.
"I can't shake this feeling she's in trouble and it's because of this Manning guy," Nash says.
"Just let me grab some calls and we'll leave," Fred says as he takes out his cell. "I'm going to get my things ready and we'll be off!" Nash says as he grabs a bag and starts packing some clothes in quickly.
