As Don and Colby are being pushed to their limits back at the office Charlie tries to figure out what do they want with him.
" Who are you and what do you want with me?" Charlie asked.
"It doesn't matter who I am, and your brother put my dad in prison for a crime he didn't commit."
" I'm sorry to hear about your father but what does that have to do with me?"
"You know for a professor you are pretty stupid."
"I'm not stupid I'm just not sure the significance for taking me."
"Revenge Epps, Revenge"
Charlie just sighed as the guy shut the door to the room where he was being held praying that they find him in time. As he sat there with his head between his legs curled in the corner he wished that he was back at home with Colby just enjoying being in each others presence.
As Don sat there and looked at the projector he had a flashback of Charlie explaining an applied behavior analysis and vector modification to help locate a missing girl. Don was trying his best to remember everything that was in the equation until he was interrupted.
" Hey Don Colby just received a call from a disposable cell phone with information for where Charlie may be at." Nikki told him
" Why didn't you come and get me when they called?" Don asked.
" They called Colby when he went to get some air to clear his head."
" So what did they tell him"
" They said that when the money is in the account and when they get it they will tell us an address for Charlie." Nikki said as she was scared to say the last part " They also said if we try anything funny they will shot him and make sure that he dies slowly."
" Okay go see what David and Liz got together and tell Colby to come and see me." Don ordered
As Don try to put together the analysis and modification together Colby entered the room.
"You wanted to see me." Colby stated.
" Yea everything okay, how you holding up?"
" Ask me that again once we find him."
"Well I remembered something about an analysis and modification that Charlie told me about a few months ago with another missing persons case"
"Yea I remember something about that. Sometimes when he's in his office I just sit there and watch him and try to learn from him because he's an amazing person. I think I know how to use this."
Don just watched in amazement from watching Colby use the equation as if he wrote it out himself and he was impressed. He also knows how much he loves his brother just by how he talked about him. That gave him more fuel and determination to find his brother because he loved his brother too, and never wanted to see harm come to him.
While Colby was working with what information he had Don went to see what else had developed on a location for his brother. If they were no closer to finding a location for Charlie, him and Colby had agreed to pull all of there funds together to pay them. He wasn't sure if they would hold up there end and give an address, but he would do whatever he had to do to get his baby brother back.
" Don!! Don I think I got it or at least a perimeter search of where he might be." Colby said as he ran to Don's desk almost tripping over his own feet.
"Alright man let me see" Don said as he followed Colby back to the office.
With all of the commotion Liz, David, and Nikki rushed in behind the two of them to see what was going on.
" You got it?" Liz asked.
" Yea I think so or at least it's the only lead that we have right now." Colby said
As Don was overlooking the board not paying attention to what was going on behind him he begin to say " Okay I want two of you to go and check it out and let me know what you see out there." When he turned around he noticed that Colby had already snatched up David and they were heading towards the elevator.
" Hey where do you think you're going?" Don yelled across the room as he ran to the elevator
" Don you are gonna have to kill me to stop me from going to see if Charlie might be out there." Colby said as he pressed the button to take them to the lobby.
" Alright then be careful out there." Don said as he took his foot out of the elevator door.
" Don't worry Don that's why I'm here." David said as the elevator doors closed
" Thanks man I really appreciate it." Colby said as he looked at his best friend
" No problem man you know I got your back. I just wish that this wasn't happening to you and Charlie." David said as they began descending towards the lobby.
Back at the office Don was awaiting a phone call or something from Colby or David assuring him of his brother's safety. He would give anything to trade places with his brother, he has always felt the need to protect Charlie from the world. If anyone or anything had ever hurt his brother they would have to pay dearly and hope that he wouldn't kill them.
" We're gonna find him you know that right?" A soft voice came from behind him
Don turned around and saw that it was Liz with smile on her face as she handed him a cup of coffee.
"I know we will I just wish that this didn't have to happen to him." Don said as he took of his coffee to fast and burnt his tongue.
"They better hope that I don't see them cause if I do I'm gonna kill them myself and they won't have to worry about Colby." Don added as he rubbed his forehead.
" Don you're not gonna kill them, and Charlie wouldn't let you do something stupid like that." Liz said as she sat on his desk.
"I know Liz, knowing Charlie he'd jump in front of a bullet to save me and I would do the same for him in a heartbeat. Don said.
Liz was doing her best to keep Don calm trying to give him a break from the major stress he was under. Everything went according to plan until Don's cell phone rang and Colby's name appeared on the screen.
