| Standing at Roz Tillville's door, was Ming Stonewalk. Roz had gasped as she opened the door to see the recently imprisoned Ming. Now, standing in front of her, Roz was speechless, an d it was Ming who said the first words. "Roz, I know this must be a shock, but I need your help," Ming said, looking behind her, she was clearly nervous. "How did you get out?" Roz asked. "I had a friend who works at the prison, she helped me get out of there in a van that she was driving. She offered to drive it to another prison as the normal driver was out sick," Roz explained. "It was pure luck, we were planning a way to get me out, but this was a blessing. I was working in the kitchen and she drove the van past the fire door, I sneaked out and I got in the van, and we were out." "Clearly security isn't a big deal there," Roz said, attempting to lighten the situation. |
| "I need a place to stay for a while, not long. I guess I need to move on soon. I'm just not ready to leave this place yet," Ming told Roz. "Maybe you could leave for a while, then after sometime, the police won't be around here as much, so maybe you could return," Roz suggested. "I need your help though Roz, I need you to let me know when I can return." "I will help you. I don't know if you did what they are saying you did, but I can see that your life with Matthew was bad, and I am glad you are away from all that," Roz told her. "I did it Roz, I killed him. He pushed me too far, so I hit him with a shovel," Ming told her. "I'm not going to judge you Ming, I can't say I am sorry to see him gone. I will help you, come on inside and we can sort things out," Roz told Ming as they walked inside, Roz looking around before closing the front door. |

| It was Dawn Sundale's first day as a police officer, and as she had done all those years ago, she came in early and talked to Andy, her partner, in the break room. All that morning she had been excited. Holly and Poppy hadn't seen her this happy is a long time. Dawn was sitting on a battered green sofa with Andy, talking about the old days. Andy had been her partner when she worked as a cop in New York, before she moved to The Kingdom. Andy laughed. "Remember when we were in Central Park and that guy was running towards that huge tree. I am still so glad you stopped me from yelling for him to watch out, that was the funniest things I have ever seen." "He deserved it, and the hooker he was with before we chased him found it funnier than the few seconds she spent with him just before," Dawn giggled. "I forgot that sometimes you can be like the rest of us, telling dirty jokes and things like that," Andy laughed. |
| "Well, I've spent a lot of time with guys over the years," Dawn said. "And before you make another dirty joke, I mean on the force." "I wasn't going to say anything. Anyway, we better get out there. Those cats wont get them selfs out of the tree's," Andy joked. "Isn't that the fire departments job," Dawn said, smiling at Andy. "Not around here, its always quiet," Andy said. "Well, thats when people are not getting murdered and kidnapped," he added, winking at her. "Let's go," she said, punching his arm playfully. |

| Noah Snowstep stopped as he walked past an orange car. The door opened in front of him and Stacy got out, smiling at him like she had that day of the sofa. "Hey Noah, how's it going?" she asked, closing the car door and rushing over to him. "Hey Stacy, it's going okay. How are you?" he asked, just wanting to go inside. "I'm great, better now I am here," she smiled, touching his arm. "I really have a lot of work to do," Noah said, trying to walk around her. "How would you like to get a drink after work?" she asked. "I am married, sorry Stacy," he said. "So? Can't two people get a drink now?" she asked. "Look Stacy, I don't think you should be coming on to me. I am your boss. Please, drop this or I will have to take action. Got it?" He said, pushed past her and storming inside. |

| Roger Rubyshine was taking a early morning swim. Since his wife Lucy went into rehab, he had been feeling lost. The kids were trying to help out when they could, but without Lucy it seemed as if life was harder than it had ever been. Roger swam to the side of the pool and got out. He grabbed his cell phone, and dialed a number. "Hello, can I speak to Lucy Rubyshine, its her husband," he said to the woman who answered. "She just entered a therapy session I'm sorry," she said. "Can you tell me how she is doing?" "Fine, she is making some good progress. I will ask her to call you soon," the woman said. "Goodbye." Roger closed his cell, and sighed. He just hoped she would come home soon. |

| Grace Roundhouse stood by her fish tank. The threats she has been getting had stopped, but she knew it wasn't over. As she poured some food into the water, a rock came through her window, nearly hitting her. "Crap," she yelled as she dropped the food into the tank. On the floor was a large stone, and around it was a note. She picked it up and read what it said. Soon this will be over. You think that you can do that to me and get away with it. It was never about that trial, but wait and see. Soon, you will find out why I am doing this to you Grace. Grace shook, and dropped the stone on the ground. Why was someone doing this? She fished out the soggy food from the tank, and went into the kitchen to get some coffee. She needed to steady her nerves. |
