Antonio and Laura's house
"Go wash your hands. And where's your father?" Laura asked, ushering the kids towards the bathroom.
"Upstairs in the office." Eva replied, as Laura left them to fight over who would wash their hands first.
Upstairs
"Babe, what are you doing?" Laura asked, trying to open the door which was locked on the inside.
"Nothing." Antonio said, coming out of the room and closing the door behind him.
"Babe-" Laura started, following her husband down the hallway towards the stairs.
"Its nothing Laur. Promise." He said, kissing her before making his way downstairs to the kitchen where the kids were waiting.
Gabby and Matt's Apartment
"Have you and Matt made up yet?" Shay asked, as she stood in her best friend's kitchen helping her cook dinner.
"I haven't spoken to him since yesterday, does that answer your question." Gabby said as her phone chimed with a text message.
"Answers my question. Who is it?" Shay asked, seeing a look of confusion cross her friend's face.
"Laura. Say Antonio is acting weird." Gabby said, walking back into the kitchen.
"Weird how?" She asked, as she pulled the tray out of the oven.
"Not sure, I'll be back." Gabby said, before walking into her bedroom to make a phone call to her brother.
Gabby's bedroom
"Hey Gabs, whats up?"Antonio answered on the other end of the line.
"Why don't you tell me whats up, you're scaring Laura." Gabby said, ignoring the pleasantries and getting straight to the point of the phone call.
"Its nothing Gabs, I have it covered. Listen I have to go. I will talk to you late." He said.
"Don't you dare hang up-" Gabby threatened as her brother hung up on her. "Oooh that jerk."
"Whats wrong?" Shay asked, hearing the argument between the two siblings.
"I don't know. He hung up on me." Gabby said, throwing her phone on the couch as she sat down to eat dinner with her best friend.
Antonio and Laura's house
"Babe, Matt's here." Laura called, as she walked back through to the kitchen with Casey following behind her.
"Thanks for coming man." Antonio said, shaking Matt's hand and giving him a bro hug.
"No problem." Matt said, as Laura offered him a cup of coffee.
"We will be upstairs." Antonio said, kissing Laura before exiting the room.
"What's Daddy doing?" Diego asked, as he helped his Mom and sister do the dishes.
"I don't know sweetie. Why don't you and Eva go watch some TV, I will finish up here." Laura said, drying the dishes that were on the dish rack.
"Its okay Mom, we would rather help and then we can go watch some TV together. You know what Dad says." Eva said, remembering the lecture their father gave them about helping Laura who was 12 weeks pregnant.
"I remember what Dad said, we are nearly done here anyway." Laura said, as she heard as door close and lock upstairs.
Upstairs-The office
"Have you found anything yet?" Matt asked, as he sat down across the desk from Antonio who was looking intently at the file in front of him.
"Nada, its like they've completely disappeared." Antonio sighed, getting frustrated that the gang was out looking for his family.
"We will find them. What gang is it?" Matt asked, sitting back in his chair and rubbing a hand over his face.
"Columbian Drug Cartel." Antonio said, also leaning back in his chair.
"As in Pulpo?" He asked, leaning forward on the desk.
"The one and only." Antonio said as there was a knock on the door. "Coming,"
Antonio opens the door and is greeted by his angry sister.
"Just what the hell are you doing?" She seethed, looking behind him to Matt.
"Don't worry." He said, as they both exited the office and Antonio closed the door behind them.
"I want to know what the hell you are doing Antonio?" Gabby said angrily as Shay pulled her back lightly.
"NOTHING GABRIELA!" Antonio yelled, before storming down the stairs and out the door. But that didn't stop Gabriela from following her brother out the front door.
Outside
"What are doing Antonio that involves Matt?" Gabby asked, following her brother down the street.
"Nothing that concerns you Gabs," He said, looking behind him to see his sister catching up to him.
"Well if it doesn't concern me or your family, why does it concern Matt?" She asked, pushing for more answers.
"It's a surprise." He lied, looking at her.
"Fine, I will drop it for now. Can we go back? I feel like we are being followed." She said nervously, wrapping her arms around her body.
"Hey, you're with me so everything will-"He started to say before he fell into unconsciousness.
"Antonio!" Gabby yelled, watching as a gan of men hit him over the head with a 2x4 before throwing both of them into the back of a van.
Back at the house
"Shouldn't Antonio and Gabby be back by now?" Laura asked as she started pacing back and forth, worried about her husband and her sister-in-law.
"Laura you should sit down," Matt said sitting down on the couch across from her and the kids as they anxiously wait for them to walk back through the door.
"I think we should call Cresswell," Laura said, looking at her phone that was sitting silently on the coffee table in front of her.
"Give them another hour and then we will call it in. I promise." Matt said, as he walked into the kitchen to get them all a drink of water.
Abandoned warehouse
"Antonio, Antonio, Antonio. I did warn you didn't I?" Pulpo said, walking into the room where he was holding the siblings captive.
"Stay away from her," Antonio said, only caring about his sister who was still unconscious next to him.
"Don't worry, we won't do anything to either of you. There won't be a scratch on either of you, just like I promised with your son. But you and your unit have to give me what I want...Or I'm going after that pretty wife of yours." Pulpo said, walking to the door before turning back to him.
"You leave my wife alone." Antonio said through gritted teeth as the drug lord left the room.
"Antonio..." Gabby whispered, slowly waking up and looking around.
"Gabs, you okay?"Antonio asked, looking over at her anxiously.
"I've just been smacked over the head with something Antonio...So yeah I'm doing just dandy." She said with sarcasm dripping off her tongue.
"I'll get us out of here. I promise." Antonio said, not daring to move.
"And how are you going to do that Einstein?" She asked, looking at him as she slowly sat up.
"I'll find a way." He said, as Pulpo walked back into the room.
"Ah, I see sleeping beauty is awake." He commented, walking closer to them.
"Don't touch her." Antonio warned, sending him a look of hatred.
Antonio and Laura's House-1 hour later
"Now can we call Cresswell?" Laura asked, following Matt into the kitchen.
"Yes." He said before dialing the number out of Laura's phone.
