Sam arrived to the station and made his way back to the interrogation room. Besides the fact that Blaine and Sebastian both told them to expect Sam, he was well known there. He was directed to room one, and he saw Blaine leaning against the door waiting for him. Sam brushed passed him moving to the two way mirror.
"Who is that?"
Blaine sighed. "We don't know for sure. We know he was one of the guys who robbed the bank but we are waiting for finger prints to come back so we can know for sure."
Sam stood back watching the man in the chair, he got why Mercedes thought he was weak. He couldn't be more than 23 years old
"Have the girls said anything?"
Sebastian walked in with the statements from Marley and Emma. "Yes actually, they said that if it wasn't for "your wife" they were sure they would be dead by now. They said that they owe you both. She was scared but calm and believed you would find them all."
Sam looked at him and took the papers.
"They also wanted us to give you your phone back."
Sam nodded taking his phone. He took a few deep breaths, this was the only link he had to her, and now it was broken.
"Let me in to talk to him."
Sebastian shook his head. "No way, you are a civilian, you are not to speak to anyone, you got that?"
Sam looked at him and shook his head. "Nope."
Turning he walked into the room, staring at the young scared kids. "So tell me, how does one become a bank robber?"
The kid looked up and folded his arms across his chest. "Lawyer."
Sam looked around. "Me, no I am just a pissed off man looking for his wife."
The kid scoffed. "No I want a lawyer and you can't talk to me without one."
Sam laughed. "No they can't talk to you without one, I am not an officer so I don't give a damn about your rights. You and your friends have something of mines and I want it back. Where did they take my wife?"
The man sat back and shrugged. "No idea."
"No idea?"
Sam nodded moving towards the young man, picking him up by his collar and shoving him against the wall. "Listen to me very carefully, I am not in the mood for games. I used to be in the FBI which means I know where all the bodies are buried and I have no problem buring you right along with them."
Seeing the seriousness in Sam's eye he shook his head. "Dude seriously I don't know Dom was supposed to call me once he got to his location. I swear."
Sam let go of him and walked out the room slamming the door. "Where are the other two?"
"They Lawyered up fast."
"I don't care let me see them!"
Blaine reached for him. "Sam look… we are going to find her, let us do our job okay? Go see Mercedes family and I will call you if anything changes."
Sam turned to Blaine and sighed. "B, I need to make sure she is safe, I have this feeling if we don't find her tonight…
"Sam go, we are gonna find her I promise. Come back up here after you have seen her family. You need to stay calm okay?"
Sam nodded walking out of the room and to his car without stopping. Once in the truck Sam punch the steering wheel a couple times in anger and frustration. "DAMMIT!"

Sam had spent about ten minutes in the parking lot before picking his mother up then making his way to Mercedes parents house still trying to calm his nerves. He was worried and scared and close to losing his mind, but he knew he couldn't act like that in front of her parents. He had to show them there was still hope. Knocking on the door. They waited patiently for an answer.
Tina whom Sam had met earlier had opened the door. She gave a weak smile as she saw Sam and moved aside inviting him and his mom inside.
"I am sorry to drop by un announced I just wanted to see how you and your family were doing. "
Tina nodded. "Oh thank you we are ok, have you heard anything?"
"Unfortunately yes I have."
"Unfortunately? What does that mean?"
Jonathan walked into the corridor.
"Tina is everything ok? Mr. Evans do you have any news."
"Mr. Jones I came over to check on you and your family and to let you know what was going on."
"Oh ok thank you please come in."
"Thank you sir. This is my mother Mary Evans. Mom this is Mr. Jones."
Mary extended her hand and gave a warm smile.
"It's nice to meet you I just wish it was under better circumstances."
He led them into the living room and Amelia stood.
"What's going on did they find her where is she?"
Sam exhaled slowly trying to find the right words.
"Mrs. Jones this is my mother Mary Evans."
Amelia gave a weak smile.
Mary smiled.
"I brought over some food I figured you guys weren't really concerned with food or anything."
Amelia wiped her nose with a tissue.
"Thank you so much for that. Jacob can you show Mrs. Evans where to put the food down."
Jacob stood and led Mary to the kitchen. Sam sighed as he took a seat on the recliner in the living room. Jonathan grabbed a seat across from him on the sofa and was joined by his wife and Tina. Jonathan clapped his hands together.
"Ok so have you found her?"
"That is a little bit complicated."
"What do you mean?"
Sam cleared his throat. "They located my phone."
Amelia gasped.
"You found her! Oh thank you God."
Sam held his hands up.
"That is where is gets complicated. See the robbers decided to divide up the money which meant they divided up the girls as well."
"But she had your phone so what is the problem?"
"The problem is that when she saw they were being divided she gave my phone to the other girls."
Jonathan let out an angry sigh and Tina held a sobbing Amelia. Jonathan stood running his hands through his salt and pepper low crop hair.
"So where does that lead us?"
Sam looked at him. "Sir I was at the station and they did manage to capture three of the five men apart of this. My brother told me that the guys they caught were more likely the weaker of the clan and your daughter knew that. So she gave the girls her phone knowing we would be closer to finding her then vice versa."
Jonathan stared at him, tears in his eyes. "I don't know what to say."
"I didn't either sir. But as I told you earlier I will do whatever it takes to bring her home."
Jonathan nodded as Jacob and Mary walked in carrying two plates each. Sam stood to help his mother but she shook her head no.
"Baby go get the other plates if you want to help. Jacob and I figured we would serve you all in here."
Sam did as she asked and walked into the kitchen to grab the other plates. Jonathan walked over to the foyer and grabbed the table trays and placed one in front of Amelia. She shook her head.
"I'm not hungry."
Jonathan bent down to her.
"Baby you need to eat. You need to keep up your strength."
Mary placed the plate onto the tray as the phone rang. Jonathan patted his wife as he grabbed it.
"Hello." He waited a moment then when no one answered again he spoke firmer and louder.
"Hello! Is anyone there?"
"Daddy." Mercedes whispered into the phone.
"Mercy? Is that you?"
"Daddy I'm so scared."
"Baby girl where are you? What's going on? Are you alright?"
Mercy cried into the phone as Sam walked back into the living room carrying two more plates. Jacob and Mary went to him as Amelia stood next to her husband being supported by Tina. Mary frowned.
"You should call your brother, Mercy is on the phone."
"What?"
He pulled his phone out as they took the plates. He dialed Blaine as he moved closer to the Jones's.
"Blaine I need you to get a trace on the Jones home phone line right now!"
Jonathan tried to remain calm.
"Baby girl calm down are you ok?"
"Daddy I should have listened I shouldn't have tried to help."
"What are you talking about?"
Mercedes tried to catch her breath and calmed down she knew the only way to help herself was to remain calm.
"Daddy I need you to listen to me very carefully. I need you to call the police and please let them know that we are stopped somewhere at a hotel." She said tearfully.
"Wait a minute Mercy, Sam is here."
"He is?"
She felt her spirits lift as his soft voice spilled over the phone.
"Mercy sweetie are you ok?"
"Oh Sam I'm so scared I should have listened to you but I didn't and I'm sorry. Please you have to find me."
"I have them tracing the phone now. How are you? How is Monica?"
"Oh you mean Monica the bank robber?" she said bitterly.
"What?" Sam said angrily.
"Sam I risked my life to save her and she was one of them the whole time and they know about your phone. I gave it to the other girls and he said he would kill me if anything happened to his brother."
"His brother? One of them is his brother?"
"That's what he said. I am so scared right now he is crazy enough to kill me."
Mercedes heard someone at the door and she dropped the phone back into the drawer and shoved it shut as someone opened the door.
Sam spoke into the phone hoping she would pick it back up. He heard something shut then Mercedes screamed.
