When they got to the fire station they immediately went upstairs to find Penny talking to Elvis, "Penny, Elvis!" Sam called. Penny turned but Elvis kept his back towards Sam, "What now? I suppose you're here to tell me that I need a bodyguard now, right?" Elvis said, still very annoyed with Sam for his behavior earlier. "no, Elvis I have someone here who wishes to talk to you." Anika stepped forward. She crossed her arms looking at Elvis. "now now, that isn't anyway to address your elder, Youngster." she said sternly. Anika was a tad bit taller than Elvis. There was a motherly tone in her voice when she spoke to him. "I need to talk to you about Buck. It's rather important so I don't want you to waste my time with that sharp tongue of yours." Her dark blue eyes narrowed gently at him. "sit down on the couch and let Sniper Mom do all the talking." She motioned for Sam to leave him be with Elvis. "now Nijo, why on earth do you trust this man so much hm?" she asked. She leaned in close to hear Elvis' answer. She tried her best not to make him look like a child in front of Penny. "I just thought of him as a good guy, sure he's attractive and all, but I just like to hear compliments from him since he's so popular.", "Well my boy, I can tell you this. You best start listening to your friend from now on, because he's telling the truth about Buck. He's no good, watch your back. And another thing, you might want to consider apologizing to Sam for the way you've been acting with Buck. It made him quite jealous if I say so myself." Elvis looked at Anika confused, "Jealous? What was he jealous for?", "Why don't you ask him yourself?" Anika said as she went back down stairs. Anika smiled at Sam. "your turn." She slid a hand past his shoulder. Sam sighed. "you didn't have to tell him that." Anika just chuckled. "play nice boys." Sam headed up the stairs. He let out a small sigh as he walked over to Elvis. "the hell are you jealous about?" asked Elvis. "I just don't like the idea of another guy flirting with you." Elvis scoffed. "it's like you don't trust me! If another guy flirting with me bothers you so much then don't look!" Sam was taken back by Elvis' sudden anger. "look, I just care about you okay? I'm only looking out for you." Elvis' eyes narrowed. "don't. I'm a grown a** man I can take care of myself." he countered. He pushed past Sam. "Now if you'll excuse me I have some chores to do." Sam leaned against the wall. Anika came back up the stairs. "I see the conversation went well." she mused. Sam shook his head. "no, it didn't." He put his face in his hand. She put a hand on his shoulder. "don't let it bug you too much dear. Besides I need to talk to you about something."
Sam made tea for the both of them. Anika sat in the recliner across from Sam. "I really need you to help me with this investigation." Sam shook his head. "I'm not coming back to work for the organization. I told you guys my place is here." Anika stirred her spoon around in her cup. "funny, your mom said the same thing when she first left. Look at what happened to her." Sam gritted his teeth. "You want to protect Elvis, right? If you work for us he will be safe." Sam looked up at her. "you know everyone here better than we do. I know you left your hunter heritage behind but I think it's time you embraced it again. I heard that your sister is also lurking around. It would appear he dodged your old brother's seal. Buck and Ashley are the only two threats we've detected thus far. She's coming for you Sam. She may do more harm to Elvis." Sam had a hesitate look on his face. The thought of losing Elvis flashed across his mind. He knew she was right. "Fine. I'll work with you but after that I want you guys to leave me alone." she smiles. "now that's a good boy."
Anika noticed that Penny was listening in on them. "I know your over there." Anika raised her voice. "come over here." Penny carefully walked over to them. "you speak to no one about what him and I have discussed. If you so much as breath a word I will put you down myself. Am I clear?" Anika eyed Penny who nodded slowly. "I don't believe I heard you. Do I make myself clear?" Penny's voice shook. "y-y-yes ma'am. I promise I won't say a word." Penny walked over to the kitchen part of the lounge. Anika took a sip of her tea. "we don't need a prying ear when it comes to our manners. I suggest you learn to not creep my dear." Anika put her cup back down on her plate. "well I hate to leave but I must go, dear." Anika shook hands with Sam. "I'll see you back at your place. I just need to talk to Darian about getting a base camp set up." Sam nodded. He watched Anika leave the station.
Hoshi had come home with Ben. He punched his mentor lightly in the shoulder. "I can't believe you fell off Titan." Ben swatted at Hoshi who dodged. "I'm not the one who pushed me off the boat." Bronwyn shook her head at the both of them. "hey mom." greeted Hoshi. "I'm staying over at Ben's house tonight. I was wondering if you could cook us some food." Bronwyn smiled. "I don't see why not. Just be careful dear." Hoshi nodded. "always am." He sat down at the table. "I imagine you're going to be busy this week, Mom?" he asked. Bronwyn shrugged. "I don't think so. People will be too busy trying to find aliens. Even your father is out on his boat looking for some." Hoshi shook his head rolling his eyes. "chertov durak." he muttered in Russian. "Hoshizora Gekko-Jones I heard that!" snapped Bronwyn. "your dad is not a damned fool. You know he just has a knack for these kinds of things." Hoshi looked at his mom. "and you also know he has a knack for getting into trouble. Bronwyn handed Hoshi a brown bag that had him and Ben's dinner in it. "have fun you too." she gave her a son a kiss on the cheek.
Hoshi and Ben walked out of the café. The both of them looked up to see a dark red flare flying into the sky. "that must be my dad! Ben! Call Fireman Sam!" Ben dialed the number for 9-1-1 and called for the firefighters. Back at the fire station the alarm blared through. Station Officer Steele turned on the intercom, "There's been an emergency flare down at the harbor," Sam, Penny, and Elvis went into Jupiter and drove down to the harbor. Ben and Hoshi changed into their Ocean Rescue uniforms. Hoshi climbed aboard Titan with Ben. "I hope dad is okay." he whispered. He heard the door to the ORC open.
