Parallel Time – Later That Afternoon
Brian was in town to see about getting more of the ingredients for his makeshift inhaler. He had to be careful about the using the money he had with him, for he realized that the money did not exactly match the money that was used here! He was going to have to go to the bank tonight, and get some of the money for this time band.
He then went into the pharmacy and started to get some to items that he needed. He went to get counter to pay for the items and saw a young woman standing there with a smile on her face. They exchanged a few words on the events going on, and she mentioned about the two deaths in town. Brian was shocked to hear about this now! He didn't know what to make of this, but promised himself that before he and Susie left, he would find out what is going on! He gave the young woman the cash, and used his hypnotic ability to make her think that he gave her the correct currency, and that someone else had given her the different money! He thanked the woman and left. As he was leaving, his vampiric half had marked her as his next 'meal'! Brian had no idea since he would wake up with sweat all over himself for no reason at all!
He then realized that he and Susie had to get home so he can get ahold of his inhaler, and keep his vampiric side at bay! He then felt someone trying to probe his mind, but managed to block the person and found an alleyway and teleport back to the Old House! Susie greeted Brian when he 'turned up' in the Drawing Room and hugged him! He put the bag down and hugged her as well before giving her a passionate kiss. Little did they realize that someone by the name of Angelique Bouchard had watched Brian teleport into the Old House, and was going to use that to her advantage to blackmail at least him into doing what she wanted!

Regular Time – East Wing
Maverick was not having it with waiting to come up with a plan to bring Brian and Susie back home! He knew that once he went into the other time band, he would have to get outside before the members of the Collins family there would find him inside their home! He figured that if the secret passages were the same as here, then he would have no trouble with getting outside!
He made sure that he had Brian's inhaler with him before left for the other time band, and backup weapons in case there was trouble which he was sure there would be! He then went to the inside the room, and waited for it to change! It was about twenty minutes later, and the room changed as it was described to him! He managed to sneak into the hallway, and found the passageway that lead to the outside of Collinwood by the stables. He figured that he should make a quick check on the Old House to see if they were there, and if there was any trouble that they could not get out of!
Maverick carefully avoided the guards that patrolled the grounds and made his way to the Old House. He went to a window, and as he was about to look in, he thought he saw Jill! He blinked for a second, and she was gone! He thought then maybe it was an illusion and looked in the window. He smiled when he saw his best friend and Susie! He carefully made his way to the front door, and knocked on it! The door opened to reveal Brian standing there, and they greeted each other with a big smile on their faces! Susie saw Maverick, and went to hug him now! They then went into the Drawing Room to talk about getting everyone home again, and hopefully never to return here! Brian did mention about the killings, and that he would like to solve them before they left not knowing that he was the reason for the killing to begin with!
They agreed that they would have to set a trap up for the killer and see what could be done with the person. Both Susie and Maverick agreed to this, for they didn't want to leave this time band with a killer on the loose now! Unknown to them, Angelique had returned shortly after nearly being spotted by the new person, and spied in on them! A big evil smile formed on her pretty face, and started to formulate a plan of her own to have them destroy the Collins family once and for all!
