Natalia watched in silence from the outside of the interrogation room as Ryan went in to inform the mother of her husband's death. Valeria had gladly taken the daughter and Louise on a tour of the lab to give the mother some alone time to process. Ryan walked in and shut the door behind him and looked at the bruised woman. Before he could even open his mouth to speak she began crying and covered her face with her hands. Ryan looked down at the ground unsure of what he could do or even say to make the situation better. Natalia watched helplessly from the other side of the glass. There was nothing that could make this situation better for her. She was finally safe, and reunited with one of her children, but just found that her husband is deceased and her other child is with the man who likely did it. She couldn't get a break.

Ryan took a breath and rolled up his sleeves as he took a seat at the table. "Rose?" Ryan asked quietly. The mother took a breath and wiped the tears off her face as she tried to collect herself. "That's your name, right?" Ryan said with a small smile once he finally caught her gaze. She nodded as she used her arm to wipe the remaining tears. "And your daughters are both named after flowers as well?" Ryan said trying to cheer her up a little bit, while also trying to get her to warm up to him.

Rose let a small smile through. "It was their father's idea. My husband adored the idea. He was witty that way" She explained. Natalia felt a ping in her chest at the pain that this woman must be going through.

"Rose, I know that this is all happening really quickly and that you must have a million different emotions running through your head, but if you can, I need you to tell me everything that happened" Ryan said as gently as he could. He knew that any person would want at least some time to sit and reflect of what was happening but they didn't have time. Rose looked at Ryan with glassy eyes. He watched as her face turned from mourning to anger in a matter of seconds.

"Bryan. That's what happened." She nearly spat. Ryan removed the head shot photo they had of him on file from the dropped case and laid it on the table between them. "Can you identify this man?" He asked while watching her facial expression. Natalia watched from the window praying that she would identify him as the same Bryan that she was talking about. She looked down at the photo and looked away just as quickly.

"That's the man that took my baby and killed my husband" She said as her face turned red and she swatted the the photo off the table. Ryan turned and looked to Natalia to make sure she had heard clearly that they had their confirmation. Natalia nodded and picked up the phone as she walked away. "Your daughter has one of Miami's finest with her, there's nothing to worry about" Ryan said with a tight smile as he stood from the table and exited the room. An officer entered following his leaving to get her official statement.

"Realistically speaking, you could drop us off on the side of this road, and avoid getting charged with the kidnapping of a federal agent" Calleigh said calmly as she looked at the stressed out face of the man who was frantically driving down the road. "I mean, given the rest of your pending charges, knocking that one off would definitely help" Calleigh continued as she turned around to check on Daisy who was seemingly unphased and napping in her car seat.

"Listen lady, YOU volunteered this trade. You said I would be safer with you in this car!" Bryan hissed as he gripped the steering wheel tighter.

"Well, that's true, they won't harm you if I'm in your presence once they find you. But they haven't found you yet. So, dropping us off would make your trip quicker and you wouldn't have to worry about that little extra charge" Calleigh said as she looked at her blouse trying to keep her mock calm composure. Bryan stretched an arm across the middle area and grabbed Calleigh arm tightly, "I am tired of talking about this lady" He yelled, loud enough to wake Daisy from her sleep, which she announced by crying loudly. "DAMNIT! Now you woke the brat!" He yelled again which only encouraged Daisy to keep whaling. Bryan was getting increasingly frustrated as his face grew red and he accelerated.

"Why don't I climb in the back and calm her down?" Calleigh prodded in a calm tone. Bryan was quiet for a moment debating her request. "You already took my gun, what other damage do you really think I could do?" Calleigh pushed as she raised her one free arm. It should be noted that Upon entering the vehicle Bryan used Calleigh's cuffs to restrain her right wrist to the door handle. "I'll re-cuff myself to the back handle" Calleigh urged. Bryan still seemed to be thinking until Daisy erupted with another round of screams. Bryan yelled in frustration as he sloppily fished the key out of his pocket and handed it to Calleigh who slowly unlocked the cuffs as to not worry Bryan. She handed the key back to him and crawled into the back seat at which time she saw the CSI Hummer approach. Her eyes grew wide as she locked sight with Eric and felt the car accelerate heavily at the sound of their sirens. Calleigh roughly fell the rest of the way into the back.

"HOW THE HELL ARE THEY HERE LADY?" Bryan asked while pulling her own gun out and pointing in roughly in the area of her figure. "I don't know.." Calleigh said quietly. Daisy continued to scream and it was clear that Bryan was on edge as he swerved around cars and increased speed steadily. Calleigh watched as two more squad cars appeared behind the Hummer, he would quickly be surrounded. Bryan seemed to notice this as well as he let out another infuriated yell. Bryan cocked back the gun and faced it again and Calleigh but was ready to pull the trigger this time. As he turned back around to check the road Calleigh swiftly braced her back against the seat and jammed her heel into his arm pushing it up high enough to break or dislocate something. In the process however the gun went off shooting straight by Calleigh's head and shattering the back window.

The gun fell to the trunk as the car swerved violently throwing Calleigh into the door. There was no way this would end safely. Calleigh looked forward and noted that Bryan wasn't wearing a seat belt. Her ears ringing so loudly that nothing other than the ringing was audible. She yanked the seatbelt across her chest as she yanked the belt on Daisy's car seat pulling her tightly against the seat. Calleigh turned back and stared right at Horatio. Their Hummer was all of 5 feet behind them. Calleigh took a deep breath in and all of her faith and yelled "RAM IT" as loud as she possibly could. She watched as Eric turned to Horatio with a shocked face while Horatio nodded and accelerated. Calleigh faced the front of the car and laced her hand through the seatbelt holding Daisy's car seat in place and pulled her hand as close to her chest as she could, securing her seat as much as possible.

Eric wiped the sweat from his palms on the tops of his pants and focused of the car that held Calleigh, their perp, and an innocent child. There wasn't much that they could see into the car but they could visibly see that the car was swerving and accelerating. "What's the game plan here H?" Eric yelled again over the sirens. Horatio shook his head as he scrunched his face to match the acceleration of the car in front of them. The car swerved sharply as a gunshot was heard and the back window shattered. It was almost as if everything paused for a moment. As if time had stopped. Horatio pulled closer to the car, seemingly unphased.

Suddenly Calleigh's face turned around in the car as she yelled. It was faintly heard but what she mouthed was clear. 'RAM IT'. Eric looked at Horatio to ensure that they were on the same page. They weren't going to Ram that car, they couldn't. There was way too much to risk. Eric had never seen such a fire in Calleigh before. She looked at Eric quickly as she turned back around in the car and she looked different. As if she knew exactly what she was doing and if it didn't work, she didn't care. It was terrifying. Horatio seemed to make a small nod back at her. Eric looked at the speedometer that read 80 MPH. The freeway was decently empty, but was also only two lanes in one direction and two in the other direction. He had a strong feeling that Horatio was going to follow through with her plan.

"H, they're going too fast, a ram won't-" Eric started in fear for Calleigh and the child's life. "WE don't have time" Horatio yelled without taking his eyes off the road. Eric realized he was right. How long until another shot went off. How long until he decided to do something else. Calleigh wouldn't have suggested that if she thought there was any other option. She cared more for that little girl than anyone else on the team. She had to think this was the only option to stop the madness. Eric looked again at Horatio who finally looked back at him. "Let's do this" Eric spoke at a normal tone. Horatio nodded again and floored it. They pulled up next to the car and decelerated enough so that the hood of their Hummer was in line with the back tires. Eric looked over in a quick moment and watched as Calleigh pulled on the seat belt and secured herself as much as she could. This was it.

Horatio tightened his grip on the wheel and whipped the wheel hard to the left, slamming the Hummer into the back end of the small compact car. The car fish tailed for a few seconds until one of the tires gave out and the car turned completely around so that Bryan was now facing them. That was until Horatio skimmed the front end of their car causing it turn again and flip once while sliding into the grassy median area. Horatio slammed the brakes of the Hummer while also turning the wheel so that they were turned facing the car. The dented car laid on its hood and wheels spun slowly. Eric jumped out of the Hummer and immediately began running towards the car. Selfishly, for Calleigh. They heard a loud thump and a child crying. Daisy was at least Horatio followed directly behind him. Before they could even reach the car the passenger side door swung open revealing a battered Calleigh with her hand glued to Daisy who was still stuck in her car seat that was fastened to the ceiling.

"I need help" She yelled as if to completely ignore the fact that she was likely injured in more ways than one. Eric stood in shock for a moment next to Horatio. "Now!" Calleigh urged from her squatted position in the car. Eric was about to run to the other side of the car when a figure was seen crawling in the distance. Bryan…
