Back inside the beach house, Chris and Chef Hatchet are in the living room. They have Duncan tied up to a chair.
Chris slaps him and says, "Just when I though you couldn't cross the line any more than you already did: leaving during season 3, blowing up my mansion and Mt. Chrismore…" Chef laughs at the part of Mt. Chrismore's explosion. Chris turns to glare at him and he stops laughing immediately. The host turns back towards Duncan to finish his sentence. "Now you help capture my family members? You have officially gone to an incredible new low."
Chef responds, "Even for someone of my standards, that's just plain cold. Like 'leaving someone on a floating iceberg' cold."
"Now there's a thought."
"I ain't sayin' nothin' to you, McLean." Duncan backtalks. "If I did, it won't make sense to you no matter how I say it."
"Try me." replied Chris, taking a little faith, because he wants to hear as much info about the kidnapping coming from Duncan's mouth and not just uncooperative crap.
"Ughhh, fine! There was this guy who got himself arrested. As soon as he got in, he made a prison break. He let us out because he needed lackeys. He also said to us that he had a plan; to settle a score. He wanted to take away the thing – or things – that the person he hated the most cherished the most."
Chris and Chef look at each other, not convinced by Duncan's anecdote. "You're right; that didn't make sense." Chef punches Duncan in the gut, who bends down and groans from the pain. Chef lifts the green mohawked teen felon's head by his chin and says, "So we're gonna beat you up until you say something we can understand! You got that, boy?!"
Duncan, still not use to obeying authority, gives the intimidating Chef a sarcastic remark, while in pain, "Got… what? Internal bleeding?"
This enrages Chef even more and he hits Duncan in the face so hard, his nose and mouth bleeds.
"And external." Chef retorts.
"Look, dude, we don't have all day." Chris says to Duncan's bloody, beat-up face. "So I suggest you tell me where they took my family while you're still awake."
"He kept it secret – only from me. Because he watched me on TV. He needed me because he wanted someone who knew you; someone who hated you."
"There's always hate mail – not that I read any of them. I only care about the good things people write about me."
"You also said 'he.'" Chef said in response to the anonymous clue that caught his ear. "Who the heck is 'he'?"
Duncan gets a little apprehensive about explaining Cormack. "'He?' Him!? This guy is dangerous! He's huge, strong, and doesn't care who gets in his way. He took down dozens of guards and hundreds of cops with his bare hands and a chain. He even lifted a patrol car with one hand and threw it across three blocks! THREE BLOCKS!"
Chef and Chris are slightly more convinced because they saw the giant earlier, commanding the escaped prisoners to capture Chris' relatives.
"If he was with them, then where is he now?"
"I don't know! How should I know where he is now? The big guy and his criminal cronies kept moving from one city to another: attacking cops, disturbing the peace, using bathrooms without paying."
"But your one of his cronies, are you?"
Duncan suddenly remembers his involvement with the group he was engaged in. "Oh."
Chris speaks in a commanding voice and grabs the chair back that Duncan was tied to close to him. Duncan actually got frightened when Chris made that move, meaning the host isn't fooling around anymore. "So tell me again; for the last time, where… is… my… family?!"
The delinquent darts his eyes back and forth and stutters, too scared to try and get even one word out.
"Tell me." Chris says. His tone gets even louder and more intimidating. "TELL ME!"
Suddenly the door opens and a woman speaks with a soft, but authoritative, inflection in her voice. "Maybe he should tell me."
Duncan immediately recognizes that person's voice and says in surprise, "Mom?"
Chris and Chef both say "Mom?!" in response, not knowing that Duncan was related to that woman.
Sandra comes in the house, in full police officer attire, hair in ponytail, with gun in hand. She walks into the living room where she sees her son tied up and bleeding. She gasps in shock and puts the gun back in its holster. Her motherly instincts begin to kick in as she forces the host and his assistant to move away (which they do) and rushes to untie her son and dab the blood from his nose and mouth.
Duncan is bewildered, and embarrassed, that his mother came for him, but at the same time, he knows the real reason and starts to let his guard down.
"Mom, what are you doing here?"
"I'm doing my job, honey. Now hold still while I untangle these ropes."
"How did you find me?"
A male voice said, "You leave a wake of disaster in your path. You weren't that hard to find."
Duncan's dad, Ronald, enters the room, reprimanding his son's time with Cormack's pack. He is also wearing a police uniform.
"Hey, dad." Duncan said, unemotionally, to his father.
"Oh sure; you're family's back together, while mine's just got taken away!" Chris speaks up, standing 2 feet right of Duncan, with Chef standing on the opposite side, interrupting the brief family moment.
Sandra chastises the host for that. "Do you always spoil moments like these, McLean? I can fine you and Hatchet for injuring my boy and if you're both guilty, I'll arrest and send you both to jail myself!"
"I'll deal with the penalty later." Chris doesn't give a damn about the threat that Sandra shot at him and puts his focus on the bigger picture. "What I need to know now is if either of you know what happened to my family."
"We're on the case, Chris. We have patrol copters tracking the kidnappers as we speak." Ronald says, giving Chris some comfort. Then, his walkie-talkie attached to his belt gets static. This means that someone is trying to communicate with Ronald on the other end. Ronald grabs his walkie-talkie, turns it on, and speaks into it. "This is Officer Ronald of the C.P.D. (Canadian Police Division). What is your status, Nell?"
Nell, a pilot of one of the patrol copters Ronald was talking about and his squad partner, responds back, "We got a sight of two AW's moving at 50 km/h, flying over the Hudson Bay. They are about 36 km from Ontario."
"Be careful, Nell. In each of those two copters, there's a group of the escaped prisoners holding hostages at gunpoint."
"Thanks for that piece of info, partner. We'll give you any news on the escapees and the captives, eh? Right now, we will engage and pursue."
"You can pursue, but do not engage. Repeat: do not engage. There are people in those choppers – innocent civilians and guilty cons. We don't want the innocents to get hurt, okay?"
"You got it. We'll keep our distance. Wait. Someone's exiting one of the choppers – someone big and burly. He's climbing up to the top and crawling to the tail. And it looks like… Oh god! Oh my god! He just jumped from that copter to mine!"
Ronald, Chris, and everyone in the room gets an alarming look. Ronald calls his friend again, starting to get worried, to know what is happening from where he is. "Nell. Nell. Talk to me, buddy. What's going on?"
"I'm losing control! Can't keep this baby in the air! Ahh! AAAHHHH! He just broke off my rotors! I've never seen anything like it! I'm going down! I'M GOING DOWN! AAAAAAHHHHHH—"
Ronald then hears static, then finally silence, on his two-way radio. Everyone then looks at him, as he tries to call his friend on the other line, sounding worried, if he would respond. "Nell? Nell!" Then he starts to say in despair "Nell.", because if his partner didn't respond back, it meant Nell didn't survive the crash. Ronald closes his eyes, lowers his head, turns off his two-way radio, and places it back on his belt. Chef walks up to Duncan's dad and sympathetically places his hand on the policeman's shoulder and says "I'm sorry", sounding very comforting. Chris, in his ever narcissistic self, disturbs this moment of peace. "Look, I know we should be hanging our heads in grief, but we gotta…"
Chef interrupts him to reprimand, "Shut up, Chris! Show some respect, man. A man just died!"
"That man was my friend!" Ronald points out, as he yells right at Chris' face. "It's not just about your family, McLean, but everyone that monster has ever hurt. So you better start growing a heart, because if you don't, you might not see your long lost relatives again!"
Chris starts to take what Ronald said to heart (in a way), making him realize that if he wants his family back, he'll need to be a little bit more considerate with other people's feelings, especially people who are trying to help him.
"Alright, alright. I'm sorry." Chris apologizes, and not only that, he means it. "Can you at least tell me the name of the guy who attacked your… you know who? Please?"
Duncan and Chef are both shocked when Chris said "please" and "I'm sorry" in a nice way because it wasn't something they expected a self-centered, inconsiderate jerk like him to say. But Chef was touched that Chris had at least a decent bit of humanity.
Ronald said the name of the man that killed Nell was Cormack. Chris started to wonder where he heard that name before, but decided to put it aside to focus on a rescue. Chef and Duncan remind him that Cormack and his band of jailbirds are an unstoppable force together and he can't rescue them alone. Thinking that, Chris realizes that he'll need some help to stop the group of criminals – and Cormack – and rescue his family members that were taken which meant he would do something that he never did before: swallow his pride.
